Speech to Text Converter Online

I'm the maker of speech-to-text.co — a free online tool that converts audio and video files into accurate text transcripts. The backstory: I kept running into the same problem. I'd record meetings, interviews, and voice memos, then spend hours manually transcribing them. Existing tools were either expensive, required account signups, or sent my audio to some random cloud server. I wanted something that just works — upload a file, get your transcript. Done. So I built it. Here's what makes it different: 🎙️ Powered by Whisper large-v3 turbo — 85-95% accuracy, 4x faster than standard Whisper models 📁 14+ formats supported — MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, OPUS, AAC + video files like MP4, MOV, AVI. Even WhatsApp voice messages (OPUS) work natively 🌍 45+ languages with automatic detection — no need to manually pick the language ⚡ Real-time streaming — watch your transcript appear word by word as it processes 🤖 AI-powered extras — one-click summarization, translation to 100+ languages, and speaker identification 📥 Export everything — TXT, PDF, Word, JSON, SRT subtitles, WebVTT. Whatever your workflow needs 🔒 No signup required — no account, no credit card, no downloads. Just upload and go Who is this for? Content creators → Turn podcasts into blog posts, show notes, and social media quotes Students → Convert lecture recordings into searchable study notes Professionals → Meeting transcripts, interview documentation, legal and medical notes Anyone with WhatsApp voice messages → Because sometimes you just want to read them 😄 The tool is completely free right now. I'd love your feedback on what features to build next. I'm working on interactive karaoke-style playback (click any word to jump to that exact moment in the audio), quiz generation from lectures, and viral clip detection for creators. Try it out at speech-to-text.co and let me know what you think! Happy to answer any questions. 🚀
