Hebrew video transcription
A video file transcribes exactly like an audio file: upload MP4, MOV, WEBM or MKV up to 500MB, and the audio track is read into a transcript with speakers and timestamps, plus a summary. It works for lectures, interviews, webinars and recorded calls, and the timestamps are what make a long video searchable afterwards.
How it works
- 1Upload the video. MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG/OPUS, FLAC, AMR, 3GP, WMA, AIFF, CAF, and video: MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV, AVI. Nothing is re-encoded on your side.
- 2The audio track is read. Picture, resolution and length do not change the result; the sound does.
- 3You get a transcript with timestamps. Every passage carries its speaker and its time, so you can find the moment in the video again.
- 4And a summary. Key points, decisions and action items, from the transcript.
Which videos transcribe well
| Type | Usually | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Lecture or webinar with a headset | Very good | Slides read aloud quickly |
| Interview, two people, close microphones | Very good | Overlapping speech at the handovers |
| Panel recorded by a room camera | Mixed | Distance; one microphone hears the room |
| Phone video of a live event | Hard | Crowd noise and echo |
Why timestamps are the point
For a long video the transcript is not only a document; it is an index. Searching the text and jumping to the time is the difference between finding a sentence in ten seconds and scrubbing through two hours. The same timestamps are what lets a summary point back at the passage it came from, which is how you check a claim instead of trusting it.

Frequently asked questions
Which video formats work?
MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV and AVI, up to 500MB. Only the audio track is used, so resolution does not matter.
Do I get subtitles I can burn into the video?
You get a transcript with timestamps and exports to PDF, Word and PowerPoint. A subtitle file for a video editor is not one of the export formats today — if that is what you need, say so and it is worth knowing.
Can I transcribe a YouTube link?
Upload the file. Pulling a video off a platform you do not own may breach its terms, so transcribe material that is yours or that you have permission to use.
What about a two-hour lecture?
Fine, as long as the file is under 500MB. For a long lecture the timestamps matter more than anything: they turn the transcript into a way to jump back to the moment.
One speaker or many?
Both work. A single lecturer is the easy case; a panel or an interview is separated by speaker automatically, and you name them once.
