How do I summarize and translate an audio recording?

To summarize and translate audio in one pass, upload a recording or paste a link to Pepys. It transcribes the audio, writes a concise summary with key points, then translates that summary into the language you choose – out of 99+ – in minutes. Get the gist of a foreign-language call without reading the whole thing. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card.

How summary translator works

01

Upload audio or paste a link

Drop in any recording or paste a link – any spoken language, no length limit.

02

Summarize, then translate

AI transcribes the audio, writes a concise summary with key points, then translates that summary into your target language in minutes.

03

Read or export

Read the translated summary, ask follow-ups in chat, then export the summary and transcript to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, or PDF.

A recording in a language you don't read is doubly slow: first you'd transcribe it, then translate it, then try to find the point. Pepys collapses all three. Upload the audio or paste a link and it transcribes, summarizes, and translates the summary into your language – so a Spanish board call or a German webinar lands on your screen as a clear English (or any-language) recap.

Behind the summary sits a full, timestamped transcript in the original language, so nothing is lost and you can always check the source. Ask follow-up questions in built-in chat, translate into any of 99+ languages, and never train a model on your audio. Pay only for what you process; credits never expire.

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

Summary translator – questions, answered

How do I summarize and translate an audio recording?

Upload the recording or paste a link on this page and choose your target language. Pepys transcribes it, summarizes it, and translates the summary in minutes – your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

Which language is the summary in?

You choose. Pepys summarizes the recording, then translates that summary into any of 99+ languages, so you can read a call in whatever language is easiest for you.

Can I also get the full transcript?

Yes. You get a full, timestamped transcript in the original spoken language alongside the translated summary, so every point can be traced back to the source.

Does it auto-detect the spoken language?

Yes – the source language is detected automatically across 99+ languages, so you don't have to set it before uploading.

Do you train on my audio?

Never. We don't train AI on your audio, transcripts, or summaries, and you can auto-delete your files after processing.
