How to transcribe a recording

  1. Choose one audio or video file. Unpin shows its name, length and the minutes it needs.
  2. Sign in with your email if you haven’t yet, then select Transcribe.
  3. Review and edit the transcript, then copy it or download TXT, SRT or VTT.

Made for spoken recordings

Use it for interviews, lectures, meetings, podcasts and video recordings in English. Accuracy depends on the recording — names, numbers and overlapping speech can come out wrong, so review the transcript before you use it.

Text and subtitle downloads

Copy and TXT include your edits. SRT and VTT subtitles are built from the original timed transcript, so text edits don’t change them and edited words aren’t re-timed. Show timestamps to see when each passage was spoken. Captions aren’t burned into the video.

Supported files and limits

Audio: MP3, WAV, M4A and other common audio files. Video: MP4, MOV and WebM. Each file can be up to 100 MB and 10 minutes, with English speech. Free accounts get 15 minutes per month and Unpin Pro gets 120 minutes per month, resetting on the 1st of each month (UTC). Failed transcriptions don’t use your minutes.

Privacy

Unpin extracts the sound on your device. Only that audio is sent securely to our transcription provider, Deepgram, with model training opted out; the video stays on your device. Transcripts aren’t stored by Unpin.

“Unlimited” and “no daily limit” don’t apply to transcription, which has monthly minutes, or to Reel and TikTok downloads, which have their own request limits. Basic image conversion and compression are unlimited; other tools share 5 tasks/day without an account or 10/day with a free account. Only successful tasks count. Pro removes the daily cap and adds batches and ZIP downloads.

Your files stay on your device.

Images, video, and audio you select are processed in your browser. That includes batch conversions, background removal, audio noise reduction, and ZIP downloads. We do not upload those files to a conversion server.

Closing or refreshing this page clears the active files and results. Files you download remain wherever you save them. Your original files are unchanged.

Reel and TikTok downloads are different: the link and its video are processed on Unpin’s server and by our download provider, as explained in the Download tool. Transcription sends extracted audio to our transcription provider; video stays on your device.

We do not use advertising trackers or save conversion history. The hosting service receives ordinary website requests, and Google Fonts receives requests to load the fonts. Processing software is downloaded from this site.
