Vimeo, Loom & Podcast Transcript Generator - Video URL to Text
Pricing
from $12.00 / 1,000 stt minute (zero-setup)s
Vimeo transcript, Loom transcript, podcast RSS, HLS video, and any direct media URL to text. Transcribe video URLs via API, MCP, or schedule — speech to text, one JSON row per item. Zero-setup STT or bring your own key.
Required. Accepted: direct audio/video file URLs (mp3, mp4, m4a, wav, flac, ogg, opus, aac, webm, mov, mkv), HLS .m3u8 VOD playlists, Vimeo video URLs, Loom share/embed URLs, podcast RSS/Atom feed URLs (expand to episodesPerFeed rows). One dataset row per media item. Max 100 URLs/run and 200 items after feed expansion. REJECTED (error rows, run still succeeds): YouTube → use kaz_kakyo/youtube-transcripts; TikTok/Instagram/Facebook/X page links; Spotify/SoundCloud/Apple Podcasts page links (pass the podcast RSS feed instead); Google Drive/Dropbox share pages; any URL that serves text/html. Bad URLs become type:error rows and the run still succeeds.
Default: 1. Latest N episodes per podcast RSS/Atom feed URL (min 1, max 25). Feed items sorted by pubDate when parseable.
Default: true. For Vimeo: reuse the published caption track ($0.005 flat caption-item) instead of STT. Set false to force STT.
Default: empty. Preferred Vimeo caption track language (BCP-47 prefix match). Fallback: en, then first available track.
Optional. Leave empty for zero-setup STT at $0.012/min (uses the actor's managed key when available). Bring your own speech-to-text API key to pay $0.005/min here plus your provider's wholesale ~$0.0043/min. Caption-path Vimeo items work without any key. Stored encrypted; sent only to the transcription provider.
Default: empty (English). Optional BCP-47 code (e.g. en, es, de). Or set detectLanguage.
Default: false. When true, detect the dominant language per item and transcribe in it. Overrides language.
Default: false. When true, labels speakers on segments/SRT. STT path only.
Default: true. Punctuation plus formatted dates, numbers, currency, phones, and emails in transcript. STT path only.
Default: true. Split transcript into readable paragraphs instead of one wall of text. STT path only.
Default: false. When true, adds summary (short abstract) on STT items. English audio only — ignored for explicit non-English language. Caption-path items never have summaries.
Default: true. When true, adds srt (ready-to-save .srt string built from segments).
Default: false. When true, adds vtt. Caption path serves the cleaned native VTT; STT path builds VTT from utterances.
Default: 180. Skip items longer than this when duration is knowable pre-STT (Vimeo video.duration, RSS itunes:duration, HLS EXTINF sum) → too-long error row. Direct files without duration metadata are clamped by file size only (2048 MB upstream limit), not duration.
