Frequently asked questions
How do I turn a Vimeo video into a transcript?
Download the MP4 from Vimeo (your library, or the download button if enabled). Upload that file on Video to Transcript. If you also posted it to YouTube, download that MP4 and upload it here.
Can I paste a vimeo.com URL?
VideoText accepts an uploaded file. Download from Vimeo first, then upload here.
Can I get SRT captions for Vimeo?
Yes. Same upload can produce SRT/VTT. Or use Video to Subtitles if captions are the only deliverable, then upload the SRT in Vimeo’s caption settings.
Is Vimeo transcription free?
Yes. Free plan: 3 imports per month, no credit card. Files are deleted after processing.
