How to transcribe a TikTok

  1. In the TikTok app, tap Share and then Copy link (or copy the address from your browser).
  2. Paste the link into the box above and press Check link.
  3. Pay $1 once (TikTok videos are almost always under 60 minutes).
  4. Download the transcript and the SRT captions.

What you get from a TikTok

The spoken words, with punctuation, in the language they are spoken in, plus an SRT file with timed captions. This is built for speech: songs and lyrics over loud music are not transcribed reliably.

Repurpose your own videos

Creators use the transcript to turn a TikTok into a caption, a blog post, a thread or a YouTube description, and the SRT file to upload subtitles on other platforms. With a translation language you also get the captions in a second language.

Which TikTok links work?

Public TikTok videos. Private videos, videos visible only to friends, and live streams cannot be reached. Photo slideshows without speech have nothing to transcribe.

What you get

A clean transcript and a subtitle file.

Every order includes both files. Download them as soon as the transcript is ready.
