From video speech to editable text
Short Video to Text
When a short video contains a lot of spoken information, manual transcription slows everything down. Videosays lets you submit a public link and receive searchable, copyable text for editing, archiving, and review.

What video-to-text solves
Video is easy to watch but hard to search. Once it becomes text, you can find keywords, extract ideas, compare messaging, and pass the transcript to AI for summaries, classification, and rewriting.
How Videosays processes a link
After you submit a link, Videosays creates a transcription task and generates a text result. When the task finishes, you can view the result in the dashboard or retrieve it through the API.
Not a video downloader
Videosays is designed for transcripts, subtitle drafts, and structured text results. It does not provide source video downloads, access-control bypassing, or third-party content redistribution features. Submit only content you have the right to process.
What affects transcription quality
Background music, unclear voices, overlapping speakers, accents, and compressed audio can affect accuracy. Clear single-speaker videos with low background noise usually produce the most useful results.
FAQ

Can it handle long videos?
You can submit longer videos, but usage is charged by recognized duration. Test with shorter clips first.
