Compatibility at a glance

Weeve reads .mp3 files with the audio/mpeg or audio/mp3 MIME types. Each file can hold up to 60 minutes of audio, and your browser decodes everything locally before any text is written.

How it works

Four clear steps from local file to reviewed text.

  1. 01

    Pick the MP3

    Select a recording up to 60 minutes long from your device.

  2. 02

    Decode it locally

    Your browser reads the audio on this page. Nothing is uploaded.

  3. 03

    Turn speech into text

    The speech model writes timed, punctuated words and separates the voices.

  4. 04

    Copy or export

    Paste the text where you need it, or export plain text, Markdown, or PDF.

Product details

Practical details for mp3 to text.

From audio file to editable text

Interviews, voice notes, podcast episodes, and lecture recordings are easier to use as words. You can search the text, quote a line, or paste a passage into notes and documents.

The transcript arrives with punctuation, capitalization, and timestamps already in place, so the draft is readable before you touch it.

Plain text that pastes anywhere

The plain text export keeps the words free of markup, so they drop cleanly into an email, a document, or another tool. Markdown and PDF exports carry the same reviewed content.

Speaker labels are numbered, not named. Rename them after transcription so the exported text reads the way you want.

Recording quality still decides accuracy

A clean MP3 with close microphones gives the model more to work with than a low-bitrate file recorded across a room. Heavy compression removes speech detail that no converter can restore.

The model detects one of 25 European languages automatically, so there is no language picker to set before you start.

Your recording stays here

Recording bytes, decoded audio, transcript text, and speaker names stay on this page. Speech models download from Weeve’s CDN.

A transcript you can review

Timestamps and speaker labels stay editable before export.

Great. I renamed your speaker label, so the exported notes will use your name.
