# Audio to Text Converter

Paste or upload your audio and Cliphi transcribes it into clean, accurate text.

## How it works

1. **Paste a link or upload a file** Drop in a supported video link or upload a video or audio file. Cliphi pulls the audio for you.
2. **AI transcribes every word** Whisper-grade transcription turns the whole thing into clean, readable text, with the language detected for you.
3. **Read it, or turn it into clips** Get the full transcript to read, copy, or search. If you want, let Cliphi cut the best moments into captioned vertical clips too.

## Why Cliphi

- **Any recording, from memo to call** Podcasts, interviews, voice notes, recorded calls. Upload the audio or paste a link and Cliphi returns the full text, punctuation and all, ready to use.
- **No per-minute bill, no queue** Most services charge by the minute or leave you waiting. Cliphi runs off a single link or file, so a long recording isn't a big bill or a long wait.
- **Accurate, word for word** Cliphi transcribes with Whisper-grade models that handle accents, several speakers, and background noise, so you are not cleaning up garbled text.

## Audio in, clean text out

Podcasts, interviews, voice notes, recorded calls. When you need the words from an audio file, typing them yourself is hours you do not have. Cliphi transcribes the audio for you. Upload the file or paste a supported link and it returns the full text, punctuation and all, ready to use.

## Built for real recordings

Real audio is messy, with accents, crosstalk, and background noise. Cliphi's transcription is built for that, so the output reads like the conversation rather than a rough guess. Use it for show notes, \[subtitles\]\(/tools/auto-subtitle-generator\), accessibility, search, quotes, or to turn the recording into writing.

It works in around 99 languages and detects the language for you, including non-Latin scripts like \[Hindi\]\(/tools/transcribe-hindi-video\) and \[Arabic\]\(/tools/transcribe-arabic-video\). And if there is video alongside the audio, Cliphi can clip it into \[captioned vertical shorts\]\(/tools/add-captions-to-video\) from the same upload, so one tool covers both the text and the clips.

There is no length to worry about. A short voice memo or a three-hour recording both come back as one transcript you can read on screen, copy, or keep editing. Researchers use it for interviews, podcasters for show notes, journalists for quotes, and teams for turning a recorded call into a written record they can search later. The point is always the same, to get the words out without typing them by hand.

Most transcription services charge by the minute or leave you waiting in a queue. Cliphi runs it off a single link or file, so a long recording does not turn into a big bill or a long wait, and the transcript is yours to copy and edit.

## FAQ

### What audio sources work?

Upload an audio file or paste a supported link. Podcasts, interviews, calls, and voice recordings all work.

### Do you charge per minute of audio?

No. You run it off a single link or file, so a three-hour recording doesn't turn into a per-minute bill or a wait in a queue. The transcript is yours to copy and edit.

### Can I make clips from the same video?

Yes. Cliphi is a clip tool at heart, so once it has transcribed your video it can also find the best moments and turn them into captioned vertical clips.
