Modern speech models help capture diverse accents and voices recorded with everyday background noise.

FAQ
Audio transcription questions, answered.
What to expect before you upload your first recording.
How do I transcribe audio to text?
Upload an audio file, leave language detection on or choose the spoken language, select a transcription model, and click Transcribe audio. You can then copy the result or download it as a text file.
Which audio formats are supported?
The tool accepts MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, OGG, FLAC, MP4, MPEG, OPUS, and WebM audio files up to 25 MB.
What is the difference between clean and verbatim transcription?
Clean transcription removes filler words and formats the result for reading. Verbatim transcription preserves repetitions, filler words, and false starts as closely as the selected model allows.
Which AI model transcribes my audio?
Gemini 3.5 Transcribe is selected by default. You can also choose OpenAI GPT-4o Transcribe or ElevenLabs Scribe v2 when those providers are configured.
Can SpeedSound handle accents, background noise, and language changes?
Gemini 3.5 Transcribe is designed for diverse accents, real-world background noise, and multilingual speech. Clearer recordings still produce the best results, and you can add a language hint when you know the primary spoken language.
Does SpeedSound store my audio or transcript?
SpeedSound does not persist the uploaded audio or generated transcript. The selected AI provider processes the recording during your request, and temporary Gemini uploads are deleted after transcription completes.
