How it works

Rip audio from video without uploading a thing

When you only need the sound, converting a whole video online means uploading a big file and waiting on a server. VidTools does it locally: it reads the audio track directly from your video in the browser and hands you a clean MP3. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and there's no watermark or sign-up.

The real audio track

Because VidTools reads the source video, the MP3 is the actual audio from the file — not a lossy re-recording. It's the fastest way to get a clean audio-only version of something you already have.

Convert or compress next

Need a different audio format like WAV or M4A? Use the Media Converter. If the MP3 is too big to email, shrink it with the Audio Compressor.
