Urdu Speech to Text

Urdu (اردو) is the national language of Pakistan and one of the scheduled languages of India, spoken by over 230 million people worldwide. Written in Nastaliq script — a calligraphic variant of the Arabic writing system — it presents unique challenges for speech recognition. Narakeet’s Urdu speech to text engine handles these intricacies, producing right-to-left Nastaliq output from spoken recordings.

Whether you need Urdu voice to text for journalistic interviews, courtroom depositions, academic lectures or personal dictation, the tool accepts any clear Urdu recording and delivers a transcript you can copy, refine or export. Convert Urdu audio to text without installing desktop software or creating an account.

Speech to Text Urdu — How It Works

Speech to text Urdu requires three actions:

1. Point your browser to the Audio to Text tool
2. Upload an Urdu audio or video file
3. Retrieve your Nastaliq transcript once processing finishes — copy it or save it as a file

Everything runs server-side. Voice to text Urdu works on any device with a browser, and you can transcribe Urdu audio to text immediately without registration. The engine supports both Pakistani and Indian Urdu pronunciation patterns.

Voice to Text Urdu — Free Tier

Voice to text Urdu is available at no cost for your initial 20 files, each up to 10 minutes in length. No sign-up, no payment — just upload and receive your Urdu transcription.

Commercial accounts unlock recordings up to 60 minutes and files as large as 350 MB, making it practical to transcribe Urdu audio to text from lengthy press conferences, parliamentary sessions or multi-part interview series.

Urdu Transcription — Tips and Considerations

Urdu transcription accuracy depends on recording clarity. Studio-quality or quiet-room recordings deliver the best results; noisy street recordings or phone calls with heavy compression will reduce precision. The engine supports both Pakistani and Indian Urdu, so speakers from either region will see reliable accuracy.

The output arrives in Nastaliq script with right-to-left formatting. MP3 uploads are supported now, with WAV, M4A and video formats (MP4, MOV) arriving soon. For video files, the audio track is extracted automatically before Urdu speech to text processing begins.
