Turn a podcast episode into a full article. Upload audio and AI writes an SEO-ready post with headings and quotes. Audio-first, unlike YouTube-to-blog.
Free for recordings up to 1 hour and 1 GB. Longer files need a paid plan.
How It Works
Drop an audio or video file — MP4, MOV, MP3, WAV, M4A and more. The language is detected automatically.
AssemblyAI transcribes every word with exact timings — usually a fraction of the recording's length.
Read the result on the page, then download it along with the full transcript.
The Podcast to Article is a free online tool from ShortsHero: episodes into SEO articles. AssemblyAI speech recognition does the work — a 5-minute recording usually comes back in under 30 seconds. It is free for files up to 1 hour with no watermark; longer recordings need a paid plan.
Free transcription covers files up to 1 hour. If your recording is longer, a paid plan lifts the limit — or trim it into parts and run each one.
Why Use This Tool
Every word carries its start and end time, so subtitles line up with the speech.
The formats YouTube, Premiere, Resolve, CapCut and every major player accept.
Filter the transcript on the page to find any word and jump to its timestamp.
Full recordings, not a one-minute sample. Paid plans lift the length limit.
The spoken language is detected automatically.
Use the files anywhere — the transcript and subtitles are yours.
Yes. Files up to 1 hour long are free, with no watermark and no account needed. Recordings longer than 1 hour need a paid ShortsHero plan.
MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, FLAC and most other audio and video formats, up to 1 GB. For a long video, uploading just the audio is faster.
Yes. Download the SRT and open it in our free online SRT editor, or in any video editor, to fix a word or a timing.
Usually well under the length of the recording — a 10-minute file is typically done in about a minute.
ShortsHero turns long videos into short vertical clips with AI moment detection, face tracking and animated captions — and has free tools for subtitles, transcripts and video formats.
The same transcription powers ShortsHero's clip maker: it finds the strongest moments, reframes them to vertical and adds word-by-word captions in 36 styles.

List every person, company, product and place mentioned in a recording. Each one comes with timestamps, so you can find it again or tag the episode.
Pull the key phrases from what is said in a video. Use them for YouTube tags, blog SEO or show notes, ranked by how often and how prominently they come up.
Find out what a video is about. AI tags it with standard IAB ad categories and topics, useful for sponsors, playlists and content libraries.
Check a video for brand-safety risks before a sponsor sees it. Flags violence, drugs, hate speech and other sensitive talk with timestamps and severity.
