Questions About Converting MP4 to Text
How long does it take to transcribe an MP4 file to text?
Based on tests, under normal conditions, the transcription process takes roughly 1/20th to 1/10th of the video’s duration. For example, a 1-hour video will take approximately 3 to 6 minutes to transcribe.
Are there any limits on the size of the MP4 file I upload?
Yes. The maximum file size is 5GB, and the video length should not exceed 10 hours. Please note that larger files may require more time to process.

It's important to understand that transcription quality largely depends on the audio quality of your video. That said, we use industry-leading speech recognition technology to ensure the best possible results for your MP4 transcription.
