In short

Our engine reads the video from TikTok and keeps the time of every sentence in it. The video from TikTok is read once, and the whole text comes back in one document. The free plan is $0 with 3 files a day, 30 minutes a file and no card.

How it works

Free TikTok transcription without a card

  1. 1

    Check the setting

    If the author has switched the download off, the option is not in the share sheet at all.

  2. 2

    Switch the speaker split on

    The split by speaker names the voices in the text when more than one person talks, and the names can be changed in the editor.

  3. 3

    Read the first lines before you share them

    The first minute of the text shows whether the recording was clear. If a name is wrong there, it is wrong in the whole file.

  4. 4

    Keep the export next to the recording

    The text of the video from TikTok lands in a file of its own. Keep it next to the recording and the two stay together.

The result

What comes back from the engine

  • TXT

    One segment per line, the way a person wrote it down. It is the format to paste into a ticket, a chat or a document.

  • TXT, CSV

    The start and the end time of every segment, and the speakers named separately when you ask for it.

  • SRT, VTT

    SRT and VTT with the time of every line, so the recording can carry its own subtitles.

  • Markdown, DOCX

    The transcript is edited through the API and exported as Markdown for a wiki, or as DOCX for a review.

The case

What the free plan does not give you

The transcription of the video from TikTok is not the hard part, and getting the file is. One word of a decision, three weeks later, and the answer is in a sound file that has to be played from the start. The file of the video from TikTok goes to our own engine and comes back as a text with the time of every sentence.
