Conversion details & limits

Video to Markdown Converter from the Audio Track.

Upload a webinar, interview, product demo, class, or recorded call. This video transcript to Markdown workflow extracts speech from the audio track and returns time-coded text. Download the result as Markdown (.md).

MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, MKV, AVI, and WMV are supported up to 50 MB and 60 minutes. Credit v2 follows actual decoded audio milliseconds at 4 Credits per minute with a 0.3 Credit minimum. This Beta does not analyze video frames, slides, on-screen text, or speaker identity.

Your videos.
Ready to work.

Bring the spoken track into your notes.

Choose one supported file to get started.

01 / How it works

Transcribe what was said, without guessing what was shown.

The output contains detected language, duration, time-coded speech segments, actual Credits, and bundle evidence. A file without a decodable audio track or recognizable speech fails without settlement.

01

Validate

Extension, MIME, container signature, account access, size, and Credit ceiling are checked before the job starts.

02

Listen

Speech in the video's audio track becomes ordered, time-coded text. Temporary processing failures release reserved Credits.

03

Review

Use output.md directly or download the complete bundle with metadata, source map, quality report, manifest, and ZIP.

02 / What you get

Audio transcription is included; visual analysis is not.

Capability

video-to-markdown

Browser, API, CLI, and MCP use the same account, Credits, History, and bundle flow.

Included

Spoken content

Speech available in the selected container's decodable audio track becomes time-coded text.

Not included

Frames and speakers

Slides, captions burned into frames, diagrams, cuts, faces, and speaker diarization are not interpreted.

Billing

Actual decoded audio milliseconds

Credit v2 follows actual decoded audio milliseconds at 4 Credits per minute with a 0.3 Credit minimum and never exceeds the confirmed ceiling. Failed jobs cost 0.

03 / Source details

Use the same audio-track transcript from code or an agent.

Review output from the Video to Markdown Converter.

This route transcribes the decodable audio track. It does not analyze frames, slides, faces, diagrams, burned-in captions, scene changes, or other visual evidence.

AUDIO

Confirm the container has useful sound

Speech must be present in a supported audio track. Silent files or media without recognizable speech can fail without settlement.

TIME

Use time-coded text for navigation

Segments help you return to the recording, but they do not identify speakers or describe what appeared on screen.

SOURCE

Keep the video for visual context

Review names, numbers, and technical terms against the audio, and consult the original video whenever the meaning depends on a demonstration, slide, chart, or caption.

Video to MD questions

What is a Video to MD converter?

Video to MD transcribes the audio track of an uploaded video into Markdown (.md). It does not describe video frames or silently summarize the speech.
