Video to text and subtitles

Pull clean, timestamped text and ready-to-use subtitles out of any video file.

Verbatext reads the audio track straight out of your video, so there is no need to extract it first. Upload an MP4, MOV, MKV or other video file and get a transcript, a summary and subtitle files (SRT and VTT) ready to drop onto the video. Up to 500MB per file.

How it works

1

Upload your video

Add an MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV, AVI or other video file (up to 500MB), or paste a direct link. We decode the audio for you.

We transcribe it in minutes

Whisper large-v3 with an AI cleanup pass returns punctuated, readable text, not raw machine output. The first 5 minutes are free, no credit card.
