Thai audio to text

Like Thai print, with words running together and spaces only between phrases. In our test the transcript used fewer of those phrase spaces than the printed text, so some sentences ran into the next, and it wrote ๆ joined to its word, as in “ใหม่ๆ”.

Thai has no full stop, and none appeared. If your document puts a space before ๆ, as the printed text in our test did, or needs clearer sentence breaks, plan a quick pass with the audio playing.

Some stay in Latin letters and some are written in Thai. In our test “Scaffolding”, “King George” and “Aerosmith” came back in English spelling, while the name Danielle Lantagne was written in Thai script as “แจเนียล ลึง”.

For a recording with long passages in English, the main audio to text converter is the better choice: it identifies the language of each piece, so English parts come back in English.

Tone marks, look-alike consonants and long words. In our test “ปารีส” (Paris) began with บ instead of ป, “อบอุ่น” got the wrong tone mark, and “บรรพบุรุษ” came back garbled; one sentence was also written twice.

The page treats every variety as Thai, with one setting for all of them. Our tests used standard Thai read aloud; Isan, northern and southern speech have their own words and tones, so try a short clip of your speakers first.

NoteOwl understands Thai among the languages it transcribes on your Mac. It transcribes Thai recordings and meetings with unlimited transcription, labels each speaker and keeps every conversation searchable, without uploading anything; its dictation is free.
