Video to Editable Text Document (TXT)

Transcribe video to text with high accuracy. Perfect for subtitles, captions, and documentation.

Format: YouTube links (transcript comes from metadata) or direct video URLs (e.g. https://.../video.mp4).

Industry-Leading Video Transcription Accuracy

Our hybrid engine combines Qwen3-ASR-1.7B and Nvidia-Canary to deliver 98.4% accuracy on video transcription — even with background music, overlapping speakers, and diverse accents.

  • Benchmark Performance:Achieves 1.63% WER on LibriSpeech Clean and 2.71% CER on AISHELL-2 (Mandarin), surpassing OpenAI Whisper Large v3.
  • Video-Optimized:Handles mixed audio channels, background music separation, and speaker overlap — common in video but challenging for generic ASR engines.

00:03:38The transformer architecture fundamentally changed how we
00:03:42approach sequence modeling. Unlike RNNs, attention allows
00:03:47parallel processing of the entire input sequence, which
00:03:51dramatically reduces training time on modern hardware.
00:03:56This is why models like GPT and BERT were able to scale
