Keep source media under your control
This workflow is about where the media goes before recognition. It is different from the offline subtitle page, which focuses on local subtitle file creation and SRT/VTT outputs.

Offline Speech to Text for Local Files
Convert speech from local video or audio into text without uploading source media to the website. Export transcripts and subtitle files such as SRT, VTT, TXT, LRC or CSV.
Some setup, updates or model downloads may still use the internet; the media file does not need to be uploaded to this website for generation.
Offline Speech to Text
Best for
- Sensitive recordings
- Large local files
- Client or internal media
- Research interviews
- No-upload desktop workflows
Why local processing matters
- Keep source media on your computer while creating speech-to-text output.
- Keep client, research, classroom or internal recordings in local folders.
- Work with large files without adding a browser transfer step.
- Review and export in the same desktop app.
- Choose from up to 99 recognition languages before generating subtitle or transcript files.

A clear path for people who care about file handling and control.

File control
For private recordings, large media and local archives
This workflow is useful for interviews, client videos, classroom recordings, internal training and any media where a browser upload is not the preferred starting point.
File boundary
No website upload before generation
Voice2Sub is not a web page where you must submit media before anything happens. The file is opened in the desktop app.
- Local file import
- Desktop processing
- Local export
Realistic wording
Local does not remove the need for review
Local handling helps with control, but recognition quality still depends on audio, speakers, noise and terminology.
- Check text
- Generate timestamped subtitle files
- Handle sensitive files carefully
Use cases
Speech recognition when file handling is the priority
Use the offline speech-to-text workflow when keeping media on the desktop is the deciding requirement.
- Private interviews and meetings
- Local lecture and course recordings
- Speech-to-text work without website upload
- Transcript files for archives
- Subtitle files when SRT/VTT is needed
Local speech recognition FAQ
Do I need to upload my media to the website?
No. Voice2Sub is a desktop app, and media generation starts from files on your computer rather than a website upload.
Does “offline” mean the app never uses the internet?
Not necessarily. Downloads, updates, activation or model setup may use the internet. The key point is that your media file does not need to be uploaded to this website before processing.
How is this different from offline subtitle generation?
Use offline speech-to-text when file control and local recognition matter most. Use offline subtitle generation when the main output is timed captions and SRT/VTT export.
Can I export subtitle files too?
Yes. After review, you can export SRT or VTT along with TXT, LRC and CSV.
