Transvio

We’ve all been there. You have a quick audio recording, an interview snippet, or a voice memo that you need to turn into text. You Google "MP3 to text free," click on the top results, and then the frustration begins:

• "Please create an account to view your transcript."

• "Your file is 5 minutes long, but the free tier only supports 1 minute."

• "Upgrade to premium to download your text file."

It felt like the simple utility market had become incredibly hostile to users who just want to get a quick job done.

That’s why I decided to build a no-nonsense alternative.

🛠️ The Tech & Approach

I wanted to leverage modern AI transcription capabilities to build something lightning-fast, highly accurate, but most importantly—frictionless.

The goal was simple: Come to the site, drop your file, get your text, and leave. No sign-up funnels, no hidden paywalls, and no annoying email capture popups.

🎯 Current Status & What's Next

This is the very first version, and it is completely browser-based and free to use. I’m heavily focusing on optimizing the processing speed and ensuring the transcription accuracy is top-tier.

Since I'm building this in public, I would absolutely love to get your feedback:

1. How is the transcription accuracy for your use case?

2. Is the UI intuitive enough?

3. What features should I prioritize next (e.g., more audio formats, multiple language support, or timestamping)?
