Transcribe WebM to Text
Turn your WebM video into accurate, searchable text — pay-as-you-go, no subscription.
WebM is the format browser-based recorders produce — Google Meet recordings, Loom exports, and most in-browser screen recorders output WebM. PlainScribe handles WebM directly: the audio is extracted in your browser and transcribed with speaker labels, which is exactly what you want for multi-person calls.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I transcribe a WebM file to text?
Upload your WebM video file to PlainScribe (up to 1GB). The audio track is extracted in your browser before upload, so only the audio is sent. The AI transcribes it across 47 languages, detecting the language automatically unless you choose it yourself, and you export the result as TXT, Markdown, CSV, SRT, VTT, or JSON.
How much does WebM transcription cost?
PlainScribe charges $4 per audio hour ($0.067 per minute) on a pay-as-you-go basis — no subscription. Your first transcript is free (up to 2 hours of audio) with no credit card.
How accurate is WebM transcription?
Highly accurate on clear audio. Accuracy depends mainly on recording quality and language — clear speech close to the microphone transcribes best, regardless of file format. Speaker diarization automatically labels who said what.
What happens to my WebM file after transcription?
Your uploaded file is removed automatically once processing completes, and the transcript auto-deletes after 30 days. For sensitive recordings, the included desktop app transcribes 100% offline on your own machine.
