Questions about the TikTok / Instagram Transcriber
Does it work on private accounts?
No — only public TikToks and Reels. Private or unlisted videos aren't accessible to the tool. The audio extraction relies on the same public URL the platforms expose to logged-out viewers.
How accurate are the transcripts?
Whisper Large v3 powers transcription — 95%+ accuracy for clear speech in supported languages. Music-heavy videos with quiet voice-over may transcribe less cleanly. Heavy accents and fast slang also impact accuracy.
Free?
Yes — 10 transcriptions per hour anonymous, 50/day signed in.
