Pendict at a glance

Pendict is a live transcription service that turns a browser tab, or your microphone, into text as it is spoken. This page lists everything it does, in plain language.

How it works

  1. Open pendict.com in Chrome, Edge, Arc or Brave on a computer.
  2. Choose a language, or auto-detect.
  3. Press start, choose the tab with the audio and tick Share tab audio.
  4. Read the live text. Copy it, or download it as .txt or .docx.

Everything it offers

  • No bot. Nothing joins your meeting. Why that matters.
  • No install, no extension, no account. It is a web page.
  • No file needed. It works live, instead of after you upload a recording.
  • Any browser tab with audio: Zoom in the browser, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, webinars, YouTube, online courses and more.
  • Several tabs at once, each its own session. How.
  • Quiet operation. Captures the tab's audio itself, so your speakers can be muted.
  • Discreet. No participant appears in the call. Read the responsible-use notes.
  • 17 languages plus auto-detect. Including English, Romanian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
  • Microphone mode (Dictate) for phones, tablets and computers.
  • Simple pricing: 2 free demos of 2 minutes, then €5 per session of up to 4 hours. No subscription, nothing renews.
  • Live chat support on every page, answered by the team directly. Details.
  • Pay securely through Stripe.

Who uses it

Students, language learners, journalists, researchers, remote workers, people who are deaf or hard of hearing, and anyone who needs a transcript now without setting up a tool.

Where it fits among other tools

Limits to know about

  • Tab capture needs a desktop browser (Chrome, Edge, Arc or Brave). On phones, use Dictate.
  • No speaker labels, AI summaries or team library.
  • Accuracy depends on clear audio. Check names and technical terms afterwards.
