Extract Audio from Video, Right in Your Browser

Drop in a video and pull its soundtrack out as an MP3 or a WAV. The tool strips the picture and keeps the sound — no re-recording, no screen capture, no quality guessing. Pick MP3 (small, plays everywhere) with a bitrate from 128 to 320 kbps, or WAV (uncompressed, lossless) when you plan to edit or archive what comes out.

Everything runs on your own machine using a WebAssembly build of FFmpeg. Your video is never uploaded, so there is no server-imposed size cap and nothing to leak. Preview the extracted audio in place, then download it.

One honest caveat: the first time you use it, your browser downloads the roughly 25 MB audio engine from a CDN, so the first run needs a connection and a few seconds — after that it is cached. And it can only extract sound that is actually in the file; a silent screen recording has nothing to pull out.

Common Use Cases

  • Podcast from a recorded call: Turn a Zoom or Meet recording into an MP3 you can edit and publish.
  • Music from a performance clip: Save the audio from a concert or rehearsal video as a lossless WAV.
  • Lecture or sermon audio: Pull a talk off its video so people can listen on the go.
  • Voiceover salvage: Recover a clean narration track from a finished video export.
  • Sound effects and samples: Grab one specific sound from a video as a WAV for your project.
  • Lighter to share: Send the audio-only MP3 instead of a heavy video file.

Privacy: This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your video is processed locally with WebAssembly and never leaves your device — nothing is uploaded to any server.
