Convert Audio to Text
with AI Precision

Audio to text conversion is the automated process of turning any audio recording into a written transcript using AI. WhisperAI converts audio to text using OpenAI's Whisper large-v3 model — achieving highly accurate results across MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, WebM, and FLAC files in 100+ languages. A 1-hour recording processes in under 2 minutes, 38x faster than real-time transcription (Radford et al., 2022).
