A TikTok script extractor for creators and marketers
The transcript is the spoken script of the video, word for word and punctuated, so you can read, search and reuse it.
Study viral hooks
Extract the script of a video that took off and see how the first lines, the pacing and the call to action are written.
Repurpose your videos
Turn your own TikToks into captions, YouTube Shorts descriptions, blog posts, threads or newsletters without retyping them.
Research and notes
Quote a video accurately, keep notes from tutorials and recipes, or collect what people say about a product.
Convert TikTok video to text in 100+ languages
The generator turns the audio of a TikTok video into text with an AI speech recognition model. It detects the spoken language on its own, so English, Spanish, Portuguese, Indonesian, Arabic or Hindi videos work without any settings. It transcribes what is said in the video, not the separate TikTok sound attached to the post, so a voice-over is not replaced by the song playing behind it.
Unlike TikTok's own captions, which only appear when the creator turns them on and cannot be exported, the transcript works on any public video and is yours to copy or download.
Download the TikTok transcript as TXT or SRT
Pick the format that suits what you'll do with the text.
| Format | Best for | Works with |
|---|---|---|
| Copy text | Quick quotes, captions and notes | Any app, ChatGPT, Notion, Google Docs |
| TXT | Reading and editing the script, with or without timestamps | Any text editor, Word |
| SRT | Subtitles that stay in sync with the video | CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, YouTube Studio |
Transcribe longer videos, files and other platforms
Upload MP4, MOV or MP3 files, or paste YouTube, X and Facebook links. Add speaker labels and translate the transcript into 100+ languages.
TikTok Transcript Generator FAQ
How do I get the transcript of a TikTok video?
Open the video in TikTok, tap Share and then Copy link. Paste the link into the box at the top of this page and click Get transcript. After a few seconds the full transcript appears on the page, ready to copy or download.
Is the TikTok transcript generator free?
Yes. You can transcribe 3 TikTok videos a day for free, each up to 30 minutes long, without signing up. A paid plan removes the daily and length limits.
Does TikTok have transcripts?
TikTok can show auto-generated captions on a video, but only when the creator has turned them on, and the app has no way to copy or download the whole transcript. This tool transcribes the audio of any public TikTok, so it also works on videos without captions.
Can I use it as a TikTok script extractor?
Yes. The transcript is the spoken script of the video, word for word, with punctuation. Creators and marketers use it to study the hook and structure of a viral video, reuse their own scripts, or turn a TikTok into a caption, blog post or newsletter.
Does it transcribe the voice or the music?
It transcribes the video's own audio, which is what the person in the video says. The separate TikTok sound attached to the post is not used, although lyrics of a song that is clearly audible in the video can show up in the transcript.
Which TikTok links work?
Video links such as tiktok.com/@user/video/..., and the short vm.tiktok.com or vt.tiktok.com links from the Share button. The video has to be public: private, friends-only and deleted videos cannot be read, and photo slideshows only have their background sound.
Can I download the TikTok transcript with timestamps?
Yes. Download it as a TXT file, with or without timestamps, or as an SRT subtitle file that works in CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and YouTube Studio.
Which languages are supported?
More than 100 languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese and Korean. The spoken language is detected automatically. To translate the transcript into another language, open the link in the full transcriber.
How accurate is the TikTok transcript?
Clear speech is usually transcribed almost word for word, with punctuation. Loud background music, several people talking at once or heavy slang can cause mistakes, so check names and numbers before you publish the text.
Do I need to download the TikTok video or install an app?
No. Paste the link and the video is read on our servers. The tool works in any browser on iPhone, Android, Windows and Mac, with no extension or app.
Can I reuse the transcript of someone else's TikTok?
Transcripts for personal use, such as notes, research, accessibility or studying a video, are generally fine. The words belong to the creator, so ask for permission before republishing their script.
Transcripts are created from the audio of public TikTok videos. TranscribeText is not affiliated with TikTok or ByteDance.
