InsTranscript: Instagram Reel and video to text
Paste a public Instagram Reel or video link and get a timestamped transcript to edit and export as TXT, SRT or VTT. First run free.
About InsTranscript
InsTranscript turns Instagram videos into text. You copy the link of a public Reel, video or IGTV post, paste it in, and it transcribes the speech with timestamps. The first run is free without signing in or entering a card.
The transcript opens in an editor with audio playback, so you can fix creator handles, brand names and acronyms before exporting. Exports come as plain text, SRT or VTT caption files, ready to drop into Premiere Pro, CapCut or DaVinci Resolve. It detects the spoken language automatically across more than 100 languages and can translate the transcript. The site says it uses Whisper-based speech models and handles videos up to 60 minutes long.
Pricing is pay as you go with no subscription. One credit covers one minute of video, rounded up, so a 45-second Reel costs one credit and a video of 2 minutes 10 seconds costs three. Signed-in users also get 8 free credits that refresh every Monday. Purchased packs stay valid for 12 months, and re-downloading or editing a finished transcript costs nothing extra.
It only works on public posts, and the site states it is not affiliated with Instagram or Meta. If you plan to republish someone else's words, credit them.
