Danish audio to text: transcribe recordings and video online

Turn Danish audio to text by uploading a recording in Danish or pasting a YouTube link. Audiotexta returns a transcript with punctuation, timestamps and speaker labels in minutes, ready to edit, summarise, translate and export.

Danish is spoken by roughly 6 million people, mainly in Denmark, which is why it is a first-class language in modern speech models rather than an afterthought.

A fragment of a demo meeting recording, as it appears in the editor: timestamps on every segment and speakers labelled automatically.

How to transcribe Danish audio in three steps

  1. Upload the file (MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG, MP4, MOV, WebM and more) or paste a link
  2. Choose Danish as the language, or leave detection on if the recording mixes languages
  3. Review in the editor, rename speakers, export or translate

Accuracy for Danish: what to expect

Danish is supported but with less training data than the largest languages. Expect more corrections than for English, especially on dialect speech and rare words. Use the Precise mode and review in the editor.

Regional varieties of Danish are recognised, but the output is written in the standard form. Very strong dialect speech may need more editing.

How to get a better Danish transcript

  • Record close to the speakers; a phone on the table beats a laptop microphone across the room.
  • Add names, products and jargon to the custom vocabulary before uploading.
  • Pick the Precise mode for interviews and legal or medical material; Fast is fine for notes.
  • Keep speaker separation on for meetings and interviews; turn it off for monologues to save a few seconds.

Translate the Danish transcript

After transcription, translate the whole text into English or 50+ other languages with one click. The translation appears next to the original with the same timestamps, so subtitles and bilingual minutes take no extra work.

Frequently asked questions

Is Danish transcription free?

The free plan includes 120 minutes a month with timestamps and speaker labels and no card. Longer files, AI summaries and translation are on Pro.

How accurate is Danish speech recognition?

On a clean recording, most sentences come back correct; names, numbers and overlapping speech are where you will edit. The editor highlights words as the audio plays so corrections take seconds.

Can the service tell speakers apart in Danish?

Yes. Speaker separation works independently of the language. Rename 'Speaker 1' once and the name is applied to the whole file.

What if the recording mixes Danish with another language?

Leave the language on auto. Each segment is transcribed in the language it was spoken in; you can translate everything into one language afterwards.

Which formats and sources are supported?

Audio: MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG, Opus, FLAC, AAC. Video: MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV. Links: YouTube, Vimeo and direct media URLs. Meetings: live via the browser extension.

What happens to my Danish audio?
