Windows 10 & 11
No separate audio extraction needed
Most transcription workflows make you rip the audio track first. ClapClip reads MP4, MOV, MKV, and WEBM directly, pulls the audio internally, and hands you a finished transcript — one step instead of three.
Long videos are not a problem
Cloud tools cap uploads at an hour or charge steeply past it. Local processing means a three-hour recording is just a longer render on your own machine — no premium tier, no file splitting.
Transcripts or subtitles from the same file
Export plain text for notes and documentation, or timestamped subtitles for editing and accessibility. The same transcription pass produces either output.
One pass, then the text is yours
The output is a normal file on your disk the moment it's produced — not a page in someone's app. That means you can search it, quote it, paste it into notes, or hand it to an editor without an export wall or an account.
FAQ
Which video formats can ClapClip transcribe?
MP4, MOV, MKV, and WEBM are supported directly. The audio track is extracted automatically before transcription.
How long can the video be?
There is no length limit. Because processing is local, a long video simply takes longer to process on your hardware.
Can I get subtitles instead of plain text?
Yes. ClapClip can export timestamped subtitles as well as plain text transcripts from the same file.
