You get a Pashto transcript, shown right to left in the editor, with timestamps and speaker labels, which you can edit, translate or download as DOCX, TXT, SRT or VTT. ## How to transcribe Pashto audio and video to text 1. **Add the Pashto recording**: A Pashto news clip, interview or lecture 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 Pashto**: Open the language list and choose Pashto under All Languages. Unsure what language a file is in? Auto Detect (beta) also recognises Pashto. 3. **Check the transcript**: The transcript opens in the editor with timestamps, and the Pashto text runs right to left. Each paragraph carries a speaker label that you can rename or reassign. 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. ## Pashto transcription at a glance | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Language list entry | Pashto | | Script | The Pashto alphabet, a Perso-Arabic script | | Text direction | Right to left in the transcript and subtitle editors | | Speaker labels | Yes, requested on every upload | | Auto Detect (beta) | Recognises Pashto | | Downloads | DOCX, TXT, SRT, VTT | | Translation | Into 116 languages, Pashto among them | | Free plan | 200 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long | Facts checked October 2026. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can Exemplary AI convert Pashto audio to text? Yes. Pashto 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 Pashto, 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 Pashto transcript of a YouTube video? Paste the video's YouTube link where you would upload a file, choose Pashto as the language and start. The Pashto transcript opens in the editor, right to left, with timestamps and speaker labels, 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. ### Does Exemplary AI handle right-to-left Pashto? Yes. Pashto is on Exemplary AI's right-to-left list, so the transcript editor, the subtitle editor and the caption preview all run Pashto text from right to left. ### Does the Pashto transcript show who is speaking? Yes. Every upload asks for speaker labels and the default Pashto speech model provides them, so each paragraph is tagged with a speaker. In the editor you can rename speakers, add new ones or move a paragraph to another speaker. ### Can Exemplary AI detect Pashto automatically? Yes. Auto Detect (beta) in the language list recognises Pashto. If you already know the recording is in Pashto, choose it directly. ### Can I translate a Pashto transcript? Yes, into any of 116 languages from the translate panel. Pashto is on that list too, so transcripts in other languages can be translated into Pashto. ### How much Pashto audio can I transcribe on the Free plan? 200 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long. The paid plans raise both limits. ## Related languages and tools - [Urdu Transcription](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-urdu) - [Hindi Transcription](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-hindi) - [Uzbek Transcription](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-uzbek) - [Bengali Transcription](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-bengali) - [Arabic Transcription](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-arabic) - [Pashto Subtitles](https://exemplary.ai/pashto-subtitles) - [All transcription languages](https://exemplary.ai/transcription) - [YouTube transcript generator](https://exemplary.ai/transcribe-youtube-video) > Exemplary AI is a browser-based AI tool that turns long videos and recordings into short captioned clips, transcripts in 99 languages, subtitles, translations into 116 languages, and written posts such as summaries, blog posts and YouTube chapters.
