TranscriptDrop is a free, browser-based transcription tool powered by OpenAI Whisper. It was built for journalists, researchers, podcasters, students, and content creators who need fast, accurate transcripts without the friction of signing up for an expensive service or handing their recordings to a third party.
Your files are processed securely and never stored. When you transcribe a recording, the audio is sent directly to the Whisper API and discarded the moment a transcript is returned — there are no archives, no accounts, and nothing left behind on our end.
We built TranscriptDrop as a lightweight alternative to costly, subscription-heavy transcription platforms. The goal is simple: drop a file, get the words back, and move on with your work.
