Video, GIF & Audio

Turn speech into text locally.

Choose an audio or video file, run a local speech model in your browser, then edit, copy or download the transcript.

Fast or more accurate

The Fast model downloads less data and is a better first choice on an ordinary laptop. The More accurate option is heavier and can take longer, but may handle clear speech more reliably.

What local means

The media is decoded in your browser and the model runs on your device. The first use downloads the model files, so keep the tab open while it loads.

Always review the transcript

Names, numbers, accents, specialist vocabulary and overlapping speakers are common failure points. Treat the result as an editable first draft rather than a verified record.

Useful to know

Do the job. Know what to check.

Short, practical guidance for this specific kind of task, without turning a tiny job into a tutorial marathon.

What this tool does

Speech to text locally

Transcribe speech from audio or video with a local Whisper model, then edit, copy or download the text.

The tool is designed to get that one job done without making you learn a full piece of software first.

Best results

Play the exported file before you share it.

Watch the beginning and end, then jump through the middle. Make sure picture, sound, timing, crop and orientation survived.

After export, play the file in an ordinary browser or phone viewer before sharing it.

In plain English

What matters most.

For a one-off video job, the useful test is whether the exported file plays properly where you intend to use it.

For one-off jobs, a focused tool is usually faster than opening a full video editor.

File size & formats

Large videos need more patience.

What can I use?

Choose a video format your browser can open. Browser-based video exports use WebM where the tool needs to re-encode a clip.

Is there a size limit?

There is no extra OutMonkey file-size cap in these browser tools. Your device memory and browser are the practical limit, so very large or long videos can be slow or fail.

If the file is huge

Shorter clips and ordinary phone-sized videos are the safest fit. Keep this tab open while a video is processing.
