What a video text transcription looks like
- 00:00
So what made you switch tools?
- 00:01
Honestly, the price.
- 00:02
We were paying for three seats we barely used, and every export costs extra.
- 00:06
And what does the team use it for now?
- 00:08
Mostly interviews like this one.
- 00:10
We record the call, pull the text, and drop the best quotes into our research notes the same day.
How to transcribe a video to text
- Take 1
Upload a video or paste a link
An MP4, MOV, or WebM file up to 500 MB, or a YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter), Facebook, or RedNote link.
- Take 2
Let the video transcriber run
Your browser pulls the sound out of an uploaded video, so only the audio is sent. For a link, Scriora fetches the video itself. Either way, speech becomes timed segments.
- Take 3
Export
Paste TXT into ChatGPT or your notes to repurpose it. Use SRT and WebVTT when you need timing.
