Instagram Transcript Generator: Turn Reels and IGTV Videos into Text in Seconds
Our free Instagram transcript generator uses AI to convert any Reel or IGTV video to text instantly — no login, no app download, no subscription required.
How the Instagram Transcript Generator Works
The tool uses two methods to generate transcripts from Instagram videos:
For videos where Instagram has auto-generated captions, the tool extracts them directly — this is instant (1-3 seconds) and very accurate.
For videos without captions, the tool downloads the audio and transcribes it using OpenAI's Whisper model. This takes 30-120 seconds and achieves 95-99% accuracy.
Supported Formats: Reels vs IGTV vs Feed Posts
instagram.com/reel/...Short-form videos up to 90 seconds. Fully supported — most have auto-captions.
instagram.com/tv/...Long-form videos up to 60 minutes. Supported via AI transcription — use Time Range selector for long videos.
instagram.com/p/...Video posts in feed. Supported when the post contains a video.
Output Formats
Download transcripts as TXT (plain text for blogs and notes), SRT (subtitles with timestamps for video editing), or VTT (web captions for HTML5 video embeds).
