Can I convert audio/MP3 to PDF for free?

Yes. Transcribe any audio file (MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG) to text and save as a PDF transcript. Free, no upload, no watermark.

How does the transcription work?

English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, and 20+ more languages. Select the language for best accuracy.

Does the audio leave my device?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your audio file never reaches any server — complete privacy for sensitive recordings.

How long can the audio file be?

There is no artificial limit. The transcription speed depends on your device processing power. Very long recordings (2+ hours) may need a modern computer with sufficient RAM.
