What is BlaBlaScribe?
BlaBlaScribe is a web-based AI tool for transcribing audio and video into accurate, time-coded text. Users can upload a file or paste a link from services such as YouTube, Vimeo, or SoundCloud. The platform detects speakers, adds timestamps, and supports transcription in more than 120 languages. It also generates subtitles, translates transcripts and captions into more than 50 languages, and creates AI voice-overs in 27 languages. Results open in a browser editor where users can correct words against the audio and export files in formats such as SRT, VTT, TXT, DOCX, PDF, CSV, XLSX, and JSON.
BlaBlaScribe is designed for creators, teams, researchers, and professionals who need searchable text and captions from recordings. Files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and they are not used to train AI models. The tool combines transcription, subtitle editing, translation, summarization, and dubbing in one workflow, with support for speaker labels, word-level timestamps, and video export with burned-in subtitles.
