What Speech to text does

Speech to text is a web-based tool that converts spoken words into written text. Users can upload an audio file or record speech directly in the browser, and the system transcribes the acoustic data into editable alphanumeric characters. The output can be copied, saved to a file, or shared, providing a digital representation of human speech suitable for documentation, note-taking, or application integration.
