🎵 Extract Audio

Pick an audio or video file and this tool decodes and extracts the audio track to a WAV file, all inside your browser. No file is uploaded.

Works with audio/video formats your browser can decode. Video container support depends on the browser (Chrome/Edge usually handle MP4+AAC).

❓ Frequently asked questions

Does extracting upload my file?

No. The file is decoded only inside your browser and is never uploaded.

Why does some video fail to extract?

A pure-front-end tool relies on the browser decoder; some video encodings cannot be decoded and will show an error. Use a desktop tool for those.

What format is exported?

WAV (lossless), the most compatible format for further editing.

📚 How to use

Want the sound out of a video? Pick the file, click extract, and the browser exports a WAV locally.

Steps

  1. Click "Choose file" to load audio/video.
  2. Click "Extract & export WAV".
  3. The browser downloads the WAV automatically.
💡 The pure-front-end approach is limited by browser decoding. Its strength is zero upload and privacy.

About this tool

Got a video but only want the sound? Classic problem.

This pulls the audio track out of a video file so you can listen on a walk, quote a line, or reuse it in an edit — no re-recording.

Local and private: the video stays on your device while we pull the track.

For podcasters, students, or anyone who'd rather hear than watch.

Your file never leaves the browser. (We run anonymous analytics — details in privacy policy.)

Tip: output as MP3 unless you need lossless; it's smaller and plays everywhere. Enjoy.
