    How to convert FLAC to text

    FLAC is lossless compressed audio: archive-quality recordings, music masters and field recordings that keep every detail. Upload a .flac file and Scriptivox turns the speech in it into an accurate transcript with timestamps and speaker labels, which you can edit and download as TXT, DOCX, PDF, CSV, SRT or VTT.

    1. Upload your FLAC file

      FLAC files come from music archives, high-quality recorders and audio editors that export lossless audio. Upload the .flac file directly.

    2. Choose the language

      Leave it on auto-detect or pick one of more than 100 languages. Turn on speaker recognition when more than one person talks.

    3. Edit and export

      Read the transcript with timestamps, correct any word in the editor, then download it as TXT, DOCX, PDF, CSV, SRT or VTT.
