Turn Video into Audio Without Uploading

Whether you want to save a music video as a song, extract a podcast from a video file, or grab the audio from a lecture, this tool handles it all locally. By utilizing your browser's Web Audio API, we convert video files to MP3 format right on your device. This ensures your data remains private and the conversion happens as fast as your computer can process it.

How to Extract Audio from Video

1. Select Your Video

Drag and drop an MP4, MOV, or WEBM file into the box. The tool accepts most common video formats.

Large files (over 500MB) may take longer to decode depending on your device's memory.

2. Process Audio

The browser will automatically decode the audio track and re-encode it as an MP3 file.

We use a standard 128kbps bitrate, which offers a good balance between file size and audio quality.

3. Download MP3

Once conversion is complete, click the download button to save your new audio file.
