What is an Instagram transcript for?
Transcribing Reels and video posts lets you write captions, prepare subtitles or reuse the content on other platforms.
If the link doesn't work
Fetching content from Instagram links may not always work because of private accounts, age or region restrictions, or platform changes. In that case, upload the video file: the result is the same and the audio is extracted in your browser.
Only transcribe content you own or have permission to use. This tool does not download or give you any video or audio file; the speech at the link is only turned into text and the media is not stored. If you are a rights holder and have a notice about your content, contact us via the contact page.
