Extract audio from a video online, for free
Pulling the soundtrack out of a video should not require editing software. Extracting audio from a video with Klipa takes seconds: drop the file, the audio is extracted and you download a clean MP3, ready to listen to or reuse.
Why extract audio from a video?
A filmed lecture you want to listen to while walking, the audio of an interview to transcribe, the music from an edit to recover, a filmed podcast to publish as sound only: in all those cases only the audio track matters. Extracting the audio saves you from carrying hundreds of megabytes of useless picture.
Extract audio from an iPhone video (MOV)
Videos shot on an iPhone come as MOV files and weigh a lot. The audio extractor takes MOV as happily as MP4: you get the MP3 of your iPhone video without any app, straight from the browser.
An audio extractor with no needless loss
The extracted audio keeps the quality of the original track: no aggressive re-encoding, no audio watermark. The resulting MP3 plays anywhere, imports into any editor and transcribes without trouble.

Real cases
When to extract audio from a video
Extract audio from a lecture or a talk
Listen to the content in the car or on a walk: the extracted audio is enough, the picture adds nothing.
Turn a phone recording into MP3
A MOV video shot on a phone becomes a plain MP3, with no app to install.
Extract audio to have it transcribed
Transcription starts from the audio track: extracting it first speeds up the process and lightens the file.
Soundtracks for video edits
Grab the music or ambient audio from an existing video to reuse in a new editing project. Export in WAV to preserve maximum fidelity and import the file straight into your video editor or DAW. Consider trimming the video first to the exact passage you need before extracting.
Archiving voiceovers and conference talks
Extract voiceovers from training videos or speaker sessions from conference recordings to archive them as audio-only files. FLAC format ensures lossless preservation for years to come. Combine with AI transcription to get both the audio file and the full text of each talk.
