How do I convert a voicemail to text?

Pepys turns a voicemail into text by transcribing the recording with AI. Save or export the voicemail (often an AMR file), upload it here, and you get the message as clean, timestamped text in minutes, in 99+ languages, with an AI summary built in. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card.

How voicemail to text works

01

Save the voicemail file

Export or forward the voicemail to yourself – most phones save it as an AMR or M4A file.

02

Upload it here

Drop the file in and Pepys transcribes the message into clean, timestamped text in minutes.

03

Read, copy, or export

Read the message, copy the details, or export to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, or PDF for your records.

Some voicemails carry a phone number, an address, or a quote you need to write down – and replaying a garbled message three times to catch one digit is its own small misery. Upload the recording and Pepys gives you the whole message as text you can read once, search, and keep.

Most phones save voicemails as AMR files, which most tools choke on; Pepys handles AMR alongside M4A, MP3, and the rest. Every transcript is timestamped with an AI summary built in, we never train on your audio, and you pay only for what you transcribe – 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

Voicemail to text – questions, answered

How do I convert a voicemail to text?

Save or export the voicemail as a file – usually AMR or M4A – then upload it on this page. Pepys transcribes the message into clean, timestamped text in minutes. Your first 60 minutes are free, no card required.

My voicemail is an AMR file – will it work?

Yes. AMR is the format most phones use for voicemails, and Pepys reads it natively, along with M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC, and other common recordings.

How do I get the voicemail off my phone?

Most phones let you share or export a saved voicemail to email, Files, or a messaging app. Save that file, then upload it here. Visual voicemail messages can usually be exported the same way.

Is it accurate enough to catch a phone number?

Yes – Pepys uses top speech-to-text models with timestamps, so digits, names, and addresses come through. You can edit anything inline before you copy or export it.

Do you train on my voicemail?

Never. We don't train AI on your audio or transcripts, and you can auto-delete your file after it's processed.
