Speech to
Text.
Transcribe your microphone in the browser using the Web Speech API. Works best in Chrome and Edge. Audio is processed by your browser/OS — nothing is uploaded by this page.
How it works
The Web Speech API is supported in Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera). Safari has partial support and Firefox doesn't yet. If you see "Not supported", try a Chromium browser. Audio is processed by your browser/OS — nothing is uploaded by this page.
Frequently asked questions
What does Speech to Text do?
Transcribe live or recorded audio with on-device speech rec. The whole thing runs in your browser tab, so it is ready the moment the page finishes loading.
Is Speech to Text free to use?
Yes. Speech to Text is completely free on ToolMunch — no trial, no premium tier holding back the main feature, and no daily or hourly cap on how many times you can use it.
Do I need to create an account or sign up?
No. There is no account, no email address, and no login. Open Speech to Text, do the job, and take the result — nothing is gated behind a signup form.
Does my file get uploaded to a server?
No. Speech to Text runs entirely inside your browser tab, so your file is read and processed on your own device. Nothing is uploaded, which means there is no copy of it on a server to worry about.
Does Speech to Text work on Mac, Windows, and phones?
Yes. Speech to Text runs in any modern web browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebook, Android, and iOS. There is nothing to download or install.
Will the result have a watermark?
No. ToolMunch never adds a watermark, a badge, or a trailing page to anything you make here. What you get back is what you made.
