How VideoToText Works

VideoToText uses cutting-edge AI technology to convert videos into accurate text transcriptions. Here's a detailed look at how our tool works.

Step-by-Step Process

1 Paste Your Video URL

Copy the URL of any video from YouTube, Instagram, or X (Twitter) and paste it into our converter. We support standard URLs and shortened links.

2 Audio Extraction

When you click "Convert," our system downloads the video and extracts the audio track. This happens on our secure servers – nothing is stored on your device.

3 AI Transcription

The audio is sent to our AI engine powered by Whisper, the world's most accurate speech recognition model. It automatically detects the language and transcribes every word.

4 Get Your Results

Within seconds, you receive your complete transcription. You can copy it to your clipboard or download it as a TXT file, SRT subtitles, or VTT captions.

The Technology Behind It

Whisper AI

We use OpenAI's Whisper large-v3 model, trained on 680,000+ hours of multilingual audio. This model achieved near-human accuracy in speech recognition benchmarks.

Groq Inference

Our AI runs on Groq's LPU (Language Processing Unit) infrastructure, delivering transcriptions up to 10x faster than traditional GPU systems.

We use the open-source yt-dlp tool to reliably download videos from multiple platforms while respecting rate limits and platform guidelines.
