How do I convert an AMR file to text?
To convert AMR to text, upload your .amr phone recording to Pepys and it transcribes the audio into a clean, timestamped, speaker-labeled transcript in minutes, in 99+ languages, with an AI summary built in. AMR is a low-bitrate voice format, and Pepys reads it directly. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.
How amr to text works
Upload your AMR file
Drop in the .amr recording from your phone or call recorder – we prepare the audio automatically.
Get your transcript
AI transcribes the AMR voice recording into clean, speaker-labeled text with timestamps in minutes.
Edit and export
Fix anything inline, then export to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT, or JSON.
AMR is the compact codec older phones, call recorders, and voice apps reach for – great for saving space, awkward to do anything with. Most editors won't open it, and the audio you actually need is stuck inside. Pepys reads the .amr directly: upload it and get back searchable, speaker-labeled text.
No converter, no install, no subscription. AMR is built for speech, so it transcribes cleanly even at low bitrate; language is auto-detected across 99+ languages, your first 60 minutes are free, you pay only for what you use, and we never train on your audio.
Clean paragraphs. No more um's and ah's.
The left is what Pepys hands back – logical paragraphs with the filler stripped out, punctuated and readable. The right is the raw, one-line-per-segment dump most transcribers leave you with.
um so yeah everyone keeps telling you to like lead with your best line right but uh honestly if you give away the whole answer in the first second you know there's basically no reason for anyone to keep watching so the hook isn't kind of the smartest thing you say it's like a loop you open that they need to close and um that's the part that actually keeps people around

Amr to text – questions, answered
How do I convert an AMR file to text?
Upload your .amr recording on this page – the first 60 minutes are free, no card. Pepys reads the AMR audio and transcribes it into clean, timestamped text in minutes, ready to edit and export.
Do I need to convert AMR to MP3 first?
No. Many editors can't open .amr, but Pepys reads it directly and prepares the audio for you – just upload the file as it came off your phone or recorder.
Will low-bitrate AMR still transcribe well?
Usually, yes. AMR is designed specifically for speech, so even a compact recording carries enough of the voice for an accurate, readable transcript.
Can I transcribe an AMR recording in another language?
Yes – language is auto-detected across 99+ languages, and you can translate the finished transcript into another language afterwards.
Do you keep my AMR file?
Only as long as needed to transcribe it, and you can auto-delete it after. We never train AI on your audio or transcripts.
