WhatsApp voice to text, for the whole conversation at once.
Export the chat with media and upload it once. Every voice message in it is transcribed in the language it was spoken, and each transcript lands at the moment it was sent, beside the written messages around it.
- Photos stay on your device; from a video, only the audio track your browser extracts is sent.
- Analysis from $5
Hear it, then read it

Hey, about yesterday's meeting: I think we should go with the second option for the homepage. Yeah, the second one.

Deal, I liked that one better too. Can you send me the Figma link? I want to show Sarah before our call tomorrow at three.

How it works
Export with media
Export the WhatsApp chat with media. The .zip that comes out holds the recordings, usually named PTT-YYYYMMDD-WAXXXX.
Upload the ZIP
See the exact price on the upload screen. Unlock the full conversation only when it is worth it.
Read the full conversation
Read the conversation as one thing, spoken and written together. Search it, quote it, and use the recap to find what was decided.
What you get
One readable conversation, not a folder of recordings.
The formats a WhatsApp export actually contains
Whichever one your phone wrote, the same upload reads it. There is nothing to convert first.
- OPUS — what WhatsApp normally records a voice message as, arriving as PTT-*.opus.
- OGG — the container that OPUS audio travels in, which is why the same recording is correctly called both.
- M4A — what some phones and older exports write instead of OPUS.
- MP3 — uncommon in a WhatsApp export, and read the same way when it appears.
- AAC — a bare audio stream some phones write instead of a container.
- WAV — uncompressed audio, read the same way when a shared file arrives as one.
- Video — speech in your videos becomes text too, placed where each video was sent.
What the text gives you that the recording cannot
The audio already exists. Everything you actually want to do with it needs words on a page.
- In place — each transcript sits at the moment it was sent, so a spoken reply reads directly under the written question it answers.
- Searchable — find the message where a price, a date or a name was said, instead of scrubbing through recordings to locate it.
- Quotable — copy the exact words with the date they were spoken into a document, an email or a claim.
- Covered by the recap — the automatic recap reads what was said out loud alongside what was typed, and follow-up chat answers a narrower question about it.
Group chats, where the recordings pile up
A group leaves a backlog nobody has an hour to sit through. One upload turns the whole backlog into text.
- The whole backlog at once — every recording in the group export is written out in one pass, not one tap at a time.
- Who said it — each transcript keeps the sender and the time it was sent, so a spoken answer has a name and a date on it.
- What was decided — search the text for the price, the date or the name instead of replaying an hour of audio.
- A project group that ran for years — a build, a move or a renovation, read as one dated record instead of a folder of recordings.
