How to transcribe Urdu audio and video to text

Add the Urdu recording
An Urdu interview, podcast or talk show 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.
Choose Urdu
Open the language list and choose Urdu under All Languages. Unsure what language a file is in? Auto Detect (beta) also recognises Urdu.
Check the transcript
The transcript opens in the editor with timestamps, and the Urdu text runs right to left. Each paragraph carries a speaker label that you can rename or reassign. Correct any misheard words before you export.
Download or translate
