Why convert audio to text with Bananote

More than a transcript

A raw transcript still needs work. Bananote delivers the text plus structured notes and a summary, so the file is useful the moment it lands.

Any audio counts

Recorded lectures, exported voice memos, interview audio, and video files all transcribe the same way. If you can hear it, Bananote can too.

100+ languages, plus translation

Transcribe audio in one language and translate the notes into another, so multilingual material stays usable.

Searchable and organized

Folders keep transcripts grouped by class or project, favorites keep key recordings close, and search finds the exact quote you need.

Private by default

Your recordings and transcripts stay private unless you choose to share them.
