# Free MP4 to Text Converter

Try the mp4 to text converter free. Drop MP4 file, get text. Start free — No card required. Powered by AI.

Convert any MP4 video to text by extracting and transcribing the audio track. Fast, accurate, and powered by AI.

MP4 is the standard video format produced by smartphones, webcams, screen recorders, and video conferencing tools. Blazescribe's MP4-to-text converter extracts the audio and transcribes it automatically — no separate extraction step needed.

Upload your MP4 and get timestamped text that corresponds to the video timeline. This is perfect for creating searchable records of video content, generating subtitles, or repurposing video into written content.

Every account starts free — 1 transcription of any length with speaker labels, SRT/VTT and DOCX export, and all 50 transcription languages. No card required. Paid plans start at $12/mo and add more minutes, unlimited files, and batch conversion.
