Paste a link, keep the file
tiktok transcript generator
Paste a TikTok video link and get the spoken words as a file you can copy or download. TXT is the reading copy. SRT and VTT keep a clock on each line.
Full video links, vt.tiktok.com, vm.tiktok.com and /t/ share links, or the numeric video ID.

The art of paying attention
00:00Some of our best ideas arrive when we finally slow down enough to notice them.
00:12Try keeping a small notebook. Not for everything. Just for the things you want to return to.
00:26A sentence. A question. A different way of seeing something familiar.
An illustration of the reading experience.
Watch once. Come back to the words.
01 — PASTE AND TAKE THE FILE
How this generator works
Paste it here.
The box on this page expects a TikTok video link. Short vt.tiktok.com, vm.tiktok.com and tiktok.com/t/ links are accepted.
Copy or download.
Copy the words, or save TXT, SRT or VTT. The file is built in this browser.
02 — THE FILE YOU LEAVE WITH
TXT, SRT and VTT
TXT is just the words. SRT puts a number and a clock on each cue. VTT carries those cues for a web player. Download builds that file in this browser. Cue punctuation is documented on the TikTok transcript page.
When the video has no captions
If the video has no caption track, speech recognition reads the audio and returns the spoken words; how that was measured is on the TikTok transcript page.
What this page will not do
This page is in English. It does not edit the words, move the timings, or burn captions into the video. Speech recognition stops at 20 minutes of audio. A caption track already stored on the video is not cut off by that 20-minute cap. A private video, a removed video, audio with no recognisable speech, or a file TikTok will not send back can come back with no text.
03 — BEFORE YOU PASTE
Questions before you paste a link
Is there a tiktok transcript generator free?
Yes. No account and no charge. Paste a public TikTok video link.
How do I generate transcript from tiktok?
Copy the share link, paste it in the box at the top of this page, then copy the text or download a file.
Can I use a tiktok script generator for this?
If you want the words the video already says, yes. This page does not write a new script, and it does not edit or burn captions.
What if the TikTok has no captions?
Speech recognition reads the audio when there is no caption track. The measured write-up is on the TikTok transcript page.
Which files can I download?
TXT, SRT or VTT. If a result has no timings, SRT and VTT stay off and the text can still be copied.
Will every TikTok work?
No. Private or removed videos, audio with no recognisable speech, and speech longer than 20 minutes can return no text.
