How wma to text works

01

Upload your WMA

Drop in the WMA file – we decode the Windows Media Audio for you, no converter needed.

02

Get your transcript

AI transcribes the WMA into clean, speaker-labeled text with timestamps in minutes.

03

Edit and export

Read the AI summary, fix anything inline, then export to TXT, Markdown, DOCX, PDF, SRT, VTT, or JSON.

WMA is the older Windows recording format that voice recorders, dictation tools, and legacy software still produce – and most transcription tools won't touch it without a conversion first. Pepys does: upload the WMA as-is and it decodes the audio and returns an accurate, speaker-labeled transcript in minutes.

No converter to find, no software to install, no subscription. Your first 60 minutes are free, you pay only for what you transcribe, credits never expire, 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
