How do I transcribe a Portuguese video?
Upload a Portuguese video or paste a link, and Pepys pulls the audio, transcribes the speech into a clean, timestamped transcript, and exports SRT or VTT captions – all in minutes. It tracks both Brazilian (pt-BR) and European (pt-PT) Portuguese, which part ways on vocabulary and pronunciation, and auto-detects Portuguese among 99+ languages. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card.
How transcribe portuguese video works
Add your Portuguese video
Upload the file or paste a link – a course recording, an interview, a social clip. Pepys strips out the audio for you.
Get transcript and captions
The Portuguese speech becomes timestamped text plus caption cues, lined up to the picture.
Export
Download the transcript (TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT, or JSON) or grab SRT/VTT captions with the timing already set.
Video is where most Portuguese audio lives now – Brazil alone is one of YouTube's largest audiences, and that's before you count course platforms, sermons, livestreams, and the endless scroll of Reels and TikTok in português. Pepys takes any of it, in Brazilian (pt-BR) or European (pt-PT) Portuguese, separates the speech from the rest of the track, and returns an accurate, timestamped transcript you can read, search, and repurpose – plus SRT or VTT captions to load alongside the file.
What makes Portuguese video tricky isn't just background noise; it's that the same word arrives differently depending on who's speaking. A creator from Rio runs vowels wide open, a presenter from Porto reduces them until syllables almost disappear, and a guest from Maputo brings yet another cadence. Pepys is built to follow all of it. Portuguese is auto-detected among 99+ languages, your first 60 minutes are free, credits never expire, and we never train on your video.
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

Transcribe portuguese video – questions, answered
How do I transcribe a Portuguese video?
Upload the video or paste a link – first 60 minutes free, no card. Pepys extracts the audio and hands back a timestamped Portuguese transcript plus caption files in minutes.
Can I get Portuguese captions from the video too?
Yes. Alongside the transcript you get downloadable SRT or VTT caption files (legendas) with the timing matched to the video.
Does it cope with both Brazilian and European Portuguese?
It does. Whether the speaker is from São Paulo, Lisbon, or Luanda, Pepys follows the pt-BR and pt-PT differences in vowels and word choice – and you can correct any line inline afterwards.
Which video formats work?

Yes. We never train on your video or transcripts, and files can auto-delete after processing.
