I am LOVING the app, and have been telling everyone.
Turn your sermons into a searchable archive
Transcribe each message into accurate text for your website, devotionals, and members who'd rather read than re-listen — processed privately on your own machine.
Free download. No account required.
A recorded sermon reaches only the people who press play
Most churches record every message, but the audio does a fraction of the work it could. People who are deaf or hard of hearing can't access it, members searching for that one passage have nowhere to look, and the rich content of a year of preaching never becomes blog posts, study guides, or a searchable archive. Transcribing by hand takes hours per message, and uploading recordings to a paid service adds a cost — and a privacy question — most ministries would rather avoid.
Vowen transcribes the full message into clean, readable text you can post, repurpose into devotionals and small-group materials, and search by topic or verse. Because transcription can run on-device, recordings stay on the church's own computer rather than on a third party's servers.
Make every message go further
A searchable archive
Turn a back-catalog of audio into text people can search by topic, theme, or passage — so a message from two years ago is findable in seconds.
Accessibility & reach
A written transcript serves members who are deaf or hard of hearing, prefer reading, or follow along in a second language — and it's indexable by search engines.
Private and on-device
On-device transcription keeps your recordings on the church's machine rather than uploading them to a transcription company.
Repurpose into resources
Export to text or Markdown to spin a message into devotionals, study guides, newsletter excerpts, and blog posts.
How to transcribe a sermon
- 1
Add the recording
Drop in the audio or video of the message — MP3, WAV, M4A, or a video file. Vowen reads common formats directly.
- 2
Transcribe the full message
Vowen processes the entire recording into a complete transcript. A longer message simply takes a little more time.
- 3
Correct names and terms
Add the preacher's name, recurring people, place names, and theological terms to your custom vocabulary so Vowen transcribes them accurately.
- 4
Publish and repurpose
Export to text or Markdown and post the transcript to your site, or shape it into devotionals and study materials.

What you've built is absolutely incredible. Extremely well done. I dictated this entire thing, which has saved me a significant amount of time and physical stress from typing.
