WhatsApp audio to text — every voice message in the chat, written out and in order.
Not one file at a time. Export the conversation, upload it once, and read months of voice messages as text alongside the written ones.
- Photos & videos stay on your device. Audio sent for transcription only if you opt in.
Hear it, then read it
Three voice messages, transcribed the way yours will be
Press play on any of them. The text underneath is what came back from the recording, in the same player and the same transcript block you get inside a recap.

- m4a

Hey, real quick about the meeting yesterday — I think we should go with the second option for the homepage. Yeah, the second one.

Ah, and the budget — it's approved! So we can move forward with the contractor this week, no problem.
Audio is only sent for transcription when you ask for it.
How it works
In WhatsApp, open the chat, tap the name, choose Export Chat, and pick 'Attach Media' — that is the option that includes the audio.
Upload the .zip. Every audio message inside is transcribed in the language it was spoken in.
Read it as one conversation — spoken and written messages on a single timeline — and run a summary for what was decided.
What you get
The whole conversation readable, not a folder of audio files.
Why the transcript beats the recording
The audio already exists. What it lacks is everything you do with it.
- Searchable — find the message where a price, a date or a name was said, instead of scrubbing through recordings to locate it.
- Shareable — a lawyer, an accountant or a colleague can read a document. Sending them forty voice messages asks them to do the listening for you.
- In context — each transcript sits at the moment it was sent, so a spoken answer reads directly under the written question it replies to.
Long chats are the normal case
Hundreds of voice messages in one upload.
A chat with years of audio in it is exactly what this is for. Everything is transcribed in order and merged into the timeline, and you are told the cost before anything runs — so a long conversation is a known price, not a surprise. The initial recap pulls out decisions and commitments, and follow-up chat can focus on a specific question.
