Extract Audio from Video pulls the complete soundtrack out of any video file and saves it as an MP3, WAV, or AAC audio file. Unlike a single-format converter, it lets you pick lossy MP3 for small shareable files, lossless WAV for editing and archiving, or efficient AAC — so you get the exact codec your next step needs, with no watermark and no length cap.
The entire process runs inside your browser using ffmpeg.wasm (a WebAssembly build of FFmpeg), so your video is never uploaded to a server — it is read, decoded, and stripped of its video track locally on your own device. That makes it a fast, private choice for podcasters, video editors, students, and anyone who needs just the audio from a clip, recording, or downloaded video without installing software or creating an account.
Why use this tool
Three output formats, one tool
Export to MP3, WAV, or AAC depending on your need — compressed MP3 for sharing, lossless WAV for editing in a DAW or video editor, or efficient AAC — instead of being locked to a single format.
Completely private, no upload
Your video is decoded and stripped of its video track entirely in your browser with ffmpeg.wasm, so confidential recordings, interviews, and personal clips never touch a server.
Lossless option available
WAV output uses uncompressed 16-bit PCM, preserving the original audio bit-for-bit — ideal when you plan to edit, master, or archive the sound rather than just listen to it.
Fast and free with no signup
Because it copies and exports the audio stream rather than re-rendering video, extraction is quick, unlimited, and requires no account, watermark, or payment.
