DIY AI Studio · Offline transcription
Your audio. Your device.
Turn short English recordings into editable transcripts and subtitles without uploading your audio. Local transcription uses no Studio credits.
Free to transcribe. No account or card required.
For clear English speech, up to 10 minutes and 100 MB per file. Start with a short sample on your device. Accuracy and speed depend on the recording and your device; review every transcript before using it.
Review and export
Welcome to our weekly project update.
Today we will review the next steps.
Your transcript will replace this example.
Listen from a segment, correct its text and adjust the start/end times in seconds. Times must be ordered and must not overlap. Removed segments can be undone until your next change.
Your transcript will appear here.
Working on your recording
Working text — the final transcript may change
Save an editable transcript to your own device to continue later. It contains text and timestamps, not audio. Nothing is saved to your account.
Optional: save valid text and timing edits automatically on this device. Audio is never saved. Other people using this browser profile may see the draft. Leave this off on shared devices.

Checking model download size…
Download while online, then bookmark this workspace. Hugging Face and jsDelivr receive ordinary connection information during setup, never your audio. Private browsing and browser storage cleanup can remove the download.
2. Choose your recording
No recording selected. WAV, MP3 and other formats supported by your browser can be used.
Or record a voice note on this device.
Microphone access starts only when you choose Record. Recording stops before ten minutes. Listen back, then choose Transcribe locally.
