MP3 to Text
OpusClip accepts speech audio in MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG and WEBA. Upload the file and we transcribe it, and the transcript becomes the script behind captions, clips and a finished video.
Audio-only uploads have to contain speech. For an instrumental track, use Song to Video instead.
Why transcribe with OpusClip
Speech audio in, text out
Upload a .wav or .mp3 and we transcribe it. The transcript is used directly as the script, so you are not copying text between tools.
More than 20 languages
OpusClip supports videos in over 20 languages. Languages that read right to left, including Arabic, Hebrew and Persian, are not supported today.
The text stays editable
Click any word or segment in the transcript to fix it inline. Choose Apply, or Apply to all, and the change shows in both the transcript and the video.
Skip the retyping
A voice memo, a narration take or an interview track goes in as a file. We transcribe the speech, so the first draft of the text already exists before you open a document.

Catch the mistakes before they ship
Speech Cleanup detects over 90% of filler words and can hard-cut silences at or above 0.5 seconds by default. Detected bad takes are highlighted in orange in the transcript, so you decide what goes.

Take the text further than a document
The same transcript drives captions, clip selection and layout. For a video project, Pro plan users download the transcript as a .txt file and the subtitles as a .srt file from the More menu.

How to go from MP3 to text
Upload the audio
Open the Add audio dialog and drop in your MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG or WEBA file. You can also paste a public audio or video link and we fetch it and pull the audio out.
We transcribe the speech
The file is transcribed and the text is used directly as the transcript. In Story Mode, a transcript can run up to 450 words, roughly four minutes of audio.
Edit the words
Click a word or a segment in the transcript to correct it. Use Speech Cleanup to remove filler words and pauses in one pass.
Export the text or the video
For a video project, download the transcript as .txt and the subtitles as .srt, or keep going and let the transcript drive captions and clips.
