Copy the link to a recorded Space and paste it into TranscriptX. The full audio is transcribed with each speaker labelled and optional timestamps, in about 1–2 minutes per hour of audio. It needs no Twitter account and is free for up to 5 hours a day. The Space must have been recorded by the host and be public; a Space that is still live needs to end first.
A Twitter Spaces transcript is the full text of a Space — the live audio conversations hosted on Twitter — written out speaker by speaker. Instead of replaying two hours of audio to find one answer, you read, search and quote the conversation as text.
Spaces are where a lot of important talk on Twitter happens: founder AMAs, project announcements, panels, community calls and talk shows. They are also long, audio-only and full of voices, which makes them hard to skim, and Twitter does not give you a downloadable transcript you can edit, search across or export.
TranscriptX does. Paste the link to a recorded Space and the whole conversation comes back as text, ready to read, quote or turn into show notes. For video and audio in regular tweets, see Twitter to Text.
Open the Space from the host's profile or the tweet that shared it. Recorded Spaces show a play button for the replay.
Tap the share icon and choose Copy link, or copy the URL from your browser.
Drop the link into the box above. TranscriptX fetches the recording itself — nothing to download, no Twitter account to connect. While a long Space processes, you can play our built-in mini-game.
The full conversation comes back with each speaker labelled. Turn on timestamps, search for a name or topic, and export as TXT, DOCX or PDF.
A Space is not a 30-second clip. It is often one to three hours long, with a host, co-hosts and a rotating cast of speakers who interrupt, agree and talk over each other. That is exactly where most transcription tools give up — they cap file length, cut off after the first hour, or merge every voice into one block of text.
TranscriptX transcribes the whole Space in one go. An hour of audio takes about 1–2 minutes, so a two-hour Space is ready in roughly 2–4 minutes. Up to 5 hours a day is free, which covers most Spaces; for marathon sessions, a paid plan removes the daily cap — we have tested single 10-hour recordings. More detail on very long recordings is on Transcribe Large Audio Files.
Each speaker is labelled from start to finish, and timestamps stay aligned with the recording, so you can see who said what and jump back to the exact moment to check a quote.
A transcript turns a Space from something you had to be there for into something you can use:
Hosts can turn every Space into a written recap, a thread or show notes for listeners who missed it — starting from the text instead of relistening.
Founders and project teams often share roadmap details, dates and numbers in Spaces. A transcript gives the community a written record to refer back to.
Journalists and analysts can quote speakers word for word and use timestamps to point to exactly when something was said.
Missed a two-hour Space? Search the transcript for the topic you care about and read just that part.
TranscriptX can transcribe any public Space that has a recording. A few cases are worth knowing before you paste a link:
Recorded Spaces: if the host recorded the Space, the replay is available from its link and can be transcribed in full.
Spaces that are still live: there is no finished recording yet. Wait until the Space ends and the replay is available, then paste the link.
Spaces that were not recorded: once an unrecorded Space ends, its audio is not available anywhere, so there is nothing to transcribe. If you are the host, turn on recording before you start.
Private or restricted Spaces: if a Space is not publicly accessible, TranscriptX has no permission to fetch it.
Yes. Up to 5 hours of transcription a day is free with no account and no card, which covers most Spaces. The allowance resets at the start of each new day, Pacific Time (PT).
About 1–2 minutes per hour of audio, depending on how busy the service is. A two-hour Space takes roughly 2–4 minutes.
Not while it is live. Wait until the Space ends and the recording is available, then paste the link.
An unrecorded Space has no audio available after it ends, so it cannot be transcribed. Hosts should turn on recording when starting a Space they want to keep.
Yes. Each speaker is labelled throughout the transcript, so you can follow the conversation between hosts, co-hosts and speakers.
No. TranscriptX fetches the recording from the public Space link, so you do not need to log in to Twitter.
Files and transcripts are kept for a few days so you can come back to them, then deleted automatically. We do not use your content to train AI models.
Paste a recorded Space link and TranscriptX returns the full conversation as text, with every speaker labelled and timestamps you can jump to — in over 100 languages, with no Twitter account.
Free for up to 5 hours a day, no sign-up needed. Transcribing a video from a regular tweet? See Twitter to Text.
