Accurate MP3 transcription
VoiceScribe AI handles real-world MP3 recordings — interviews, lectures, podcasts and voice memos — and produces clean, punctuated text you can actually read and reuse.
100+ languages, auto-detected
You do not have to tell it the language. The transcriber detects the spoken language from over 100 options, so MP3 files in any supported language are converted to text the same way.
Speaker labels included free
Multi-person MP3 recordings are automatically split by speaker, which is essential for interviews, panels and meetings. This is part of the free plan, not an upsell.
Export to the format you need
Once your MP3 is text, download it as TXT or DOCX for documents, or SRT and VTT for subtitles. PDF (basic ASCII only) is available for plain English text.

FAQ
MP3 to text — frequently asked questions
How do I convert an MP3 to text?
Upload your MP3 file to VoiceScribe AI, and it transcribes the audio into text automatically. The language is auto-detected, speakers are labeled, and you can then read, edit and export the transcript — no software install required.
Is converting MP3 to text free?
You can start for free with no credit card. Free monthly transcription minutes are included, along with speaker labels and exports to TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT (all languages), and PDF (basic ASCII only).
How accurate is the MP3 transcription?
Accuracy is high for clear MP3 recordings with good audio quality. Background noise, heavy crosstalk or very low-volume recordings can reduce accuracy, so you can always review and edit the transcript before exporting.
What languages are supported for MP3 files?
Over 100 languages are supported, and the spoken language is detected automatically. You do not need to select it manually before converting your MP3 to text.
What formats can I export my MP3 transcript to?
Once your MP3 is text, you can export to TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT (all languages), and PDF (basic ASCII only). SRT and VTT are subtitle formats, which are handy when the MP3 was extracted from a video or podcast.
