Speechyou is an AI-powered speech-to-text platform that transcribes meetings, voice notes, interviews, and audio or video files into accurate text in 100+ languages. You can record directly in the browser or upload existing files, then summarize, translate, and export the results.

How do I get started with Speechyou?

Create a free account, then either record audio in your browser or upload an audio or video file. Speechyou automatically detects the language and returns a timestamped transcript in minutes. No credit card is required to start.

Do I need to install any software?

No. Speechyou runs entirely in your web browser, so there is nothing to download or install. An iOS app is also available for transcribing on the go.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 transcriptions per day, file uploads up to 10 MB, browser recording, and TXT export, with support for 100+ languages. You can upgrade to Solo for unlimited transcriptions whenever you need more.

How does AI transcription work?

Speechyou uses Whisper AI, one of the most advanced speech recognition models available. When you upload or record audio, the AI analyzes the speech, detects the language automatically, and converts it to accurate text with timestamps. Most recordings finish in just a few minutes, even hour-long files.

How accurate is the voice to text transcription?

Speechyou achieves over 95% accuracy for clear audio in supported languages. Accuracy depends on audio quality, background noise, and speaker clarity. For best results, use a good microphone and minimize background noise. The AI also handles multiple speakers and uses context to improve results.

Can I transcribe Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet calls?

Yes. Speechyou's Meeting Mode captures both your microphone and system audio, so you can record any online meeting platform including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. Enable Meeting Mode before your call starts and Speechyou transcribes the entire conversation.

Can Speechyou transcribe YouTube videos?

Yes. Paste a YouTube URL and Speechyou extracts the audio and transcribes it to text with timestamps, usually in under two minutes. You can then export the transcript as SRT or VTT subtitles.

Does it work with multiple speakers?

Speechyou handles recordings with multiple speakers and produces a clean, readable transcript. Combined with Ask AI, you can quickly pull out who said what and summarize long conversations.

How many languages does Speechyou support?

Speechyou transcribes audio in 100+ languages with automatic language detection, including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, and many more.

Can I translate my transcriptions to other languages?

Yes. Paid plans include translation to 15+ languages such as Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Russian, Dutch, Polish, Turkish, Hindi, and Swedish. Translations preserve the original timestamps for easy reference.

Does it detect the language automatically?

Yes. Speechyou automatically detects the spoken language in your recording, so you do not need to set it manually before transcribing.

What audio and video formats are supported?

Speechyou supports all major formats including MP3, WAV, AAC, OGG, FLAC, and M4A, plus common video formats. Uploads can be up to 10 MB on the free plan and up to 1 GB on paid plans. For video files, Speechyou extracts and transcribes the audio automatically.

What export formats are available?

Free users can export as TXT (plain text). Paid plans unlock SRT (SubRip subtitles), VTT (WebVTT for web video), and JSON (full data with metadata and timestamps). SRT and VTT are ideal for adding subtitles to YouTube, Vimeo, or any video platform.

How large can my files be?

The free plan supports uploads up to 10 MB per file. Paid plans raise this limit to 1 GB per file, which covers long meetings, podcasts, and lectures.

How does Ask AI work?

Ask AI lets you chat with your transcription using natural language. Ask questions like 'What were the main action items?' or 'Summarize this meeting in 3 bullet points' and get instant answers. It keeps conversation history so you can follow up about your content.

Can Speechyou summarize my recordings?

Yes. Speechyou can generate summaries, extract action items, and surface key points from any transcript, turning long recordings into concise, shareable notes.

How much does Speechyou cost?

Speechyou offers a free plan with 3 transcriptions per day. The Solo plan is $7/month for unlimited transcriptions, larger uploads, Ask AI, translation, and all export formats. A discounted yearly option is also available.

Can I cancel anytime?

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. You can start transcribing on the free plan without entering any payment details.

Yes. Speechyou uses enterprise-grade security including encrypted file storage on AWS S3, secure authentication via Google, Microsoft, or email, and Stripe for payment processing. We never share your transcriptions with third parties.
