Unlock your Japanese audio's full potential
The audio file of a podcast, webinar, or online course is so much more than just a one-off recording — it's a resource that can be mined for a range of additional audio and text material. Podcasts can be cut into clips and audiograms and shared across social media channels, webinars transformed into on-demand audio courses and detailed blog posts, and lectures reworked as study guides and eBook material.
With the Audio to Text Japanese Converter, you also unlock the ability to turn audio files into audio-video materials. As soon as you upload your file, a blank canvas will populate in the editor, where you can add visual elements or subtitles. The transcript editor includes a useful "Add Visual" button when you highlight text, allowing you to instantly pair parts of a transcript with visual assets from your local drive or our free stock library.
