Export the spoken content of an MP4 as a text file
MP4 to TXT is for users who do not just need a video transcript on screen; they need a plain text file they can search, paste, edit, summarize, translate, or store. Vocova extracts speech from your MP4 file, creates a structured transcript, and lets you download a clean TXT file along with subtitle and document formats.

Features
Real .txt file, not just an on-screen transcript
If your next step is pasting into a writing tool, feeding text to a search index, or attaching a transcript to a ticket, you want an actual .txt file — not a transcript trapped inside a player. That is the default download here.
Clean readable transcript
Convert spoken sections into paragraphs with timing and speaker labels available when the audio supports it.
Works with common MP4 sources
Use video from phones, cameras, Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, OBS, Loom exports, and other MP4-producing tools.
Search and quote faster
Text output makes it easier to search for phrases, extract quotes, build summaries, or prepare meeting notes.
Subtitle exports included
If you later need captions, export the same transcript as SRT or VTT without uploading the video again.
Translation-ready text
Use the transcript as a source for translation, bilingual subtitles, or multilingual documentation.
