# Hindi Transcription

To transcribe Hindi audio or video to text, upload the file or paste a link, choose Hindi as the language and start. You get a Hindi transcript with timestamps, which you can edit, translate or download as DOCX, TXT, SRT or VTT.

## How to transcribe Hindi audio and video to text

1. **Add the Hindi recording**: A Hindi lecture, interview or vlog works as an audio file (MP3, WAV or M4A), a video file (MP4, WEBM, MOV or MKV) or a YouTube, TikTok, Vimeo or X link. Upload the file or paste the link.
2. **Choose Hindi**: Open the language list and choose Hindi from the Popular group at the top. The Beta Languages group at the end of the list adds Hindi (Roman Script). Unsure what language a file is in? Auto Detect (beta) also recognises Hindi.
3. **Check the transcript**: The transcript opens in the editor with timestamps. The default Hindi model does not label speakers, so add and name them in the editor, or retranscribe the file with another speech model. Correct any misheard words before you export.
4. **Download or translate**: Download DOCX or TXT with optional timestamps and speaker names, or SRT and VTT subtitle files. The translate panel turns the transcript into any of 116 languages.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can Exemplary AI convert Hindi audio to text?

Yes. Hindi is in the upload language list. Upload the recording (MP3, WAV or M4A) or video (MP4, WEBM, MOV or MKV), or paste a link, choose Hindi, and the transcript opens in the editor. Transcripts are accurate on clear audio, with an editor to review and fix any errors.

### How do I get the Hindi transcript of a YouTube video?

Paste the video's YouTube link where you would upload a file, choose Hindi as the language and start. The Hindi transcript opens in the editor with timestamps, ready to edit, translate or download as DOCX, TXT, SRT or VTT. If a link will not import, download the video and upload the file instead.

### What can I download from a Hindi transcript?

DOCX or TXT files, with optional timestamps, speaker names and highlights, or SRT and VTT subtitle files for Hindi captions.

### Does the Hindi transcript show who is speaking?

Not automatically. The default Hindi speech model is not set up for speaker labels, so mark speakers yourself: the editor lets you add speakers, name them and assign each paragraph. Retranscribe can also re-run the file with another speech model offered for Hindi.

### Can I get a Hindi transcript in Roman (Latin) letters?

Yes. The Beta Languages group at the end of the language list has Hindi (Roman Script), which writes the transcript in Latin letters instead of Devanagari.

### Can I translate a Hindi transcript?

Yes, into any of 116 languages from the translate panel. Hindi is on that list too, so transcripts in other languages can be translated into Hindi.

### How much Hindi audio can I transcribe on the Free plan?

500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long. The paid plans raise both limits.
