Frequently asked questions
Can I convert an MP4 to text without uploading it?
Yes — that's the only way Cutlia works. Your browser reads the MP4 and recognises the speech itself, so the video stays on your device.
Does it work with Zoom and Teams recordings?
Yes. Meeting recordings are MP4 files: open one, click “Identify speakers”, and each person's paragraphs are labelled. Rename the labels to the participants' names.
Can it handle long MP4s?
Yes. The video is read a piece at a time, so a long recording doesn't fill the memory. It does take longer, especially on older computers, so keep the tab open while it works.
Is it really free?
Yes. Cutlia is free to use with no account, no trial and no watermark on your export. The site is paid for by the ads on it, and your files never leave your device.
