About Extract Audio
Strip the soundtrack out of any video file and save it as MP3, WAV, or AAC. The video stream is discarded and the audio is re-encoded at your chosen bitrate. Everything happens locally in your browser: nothing is uploaded, stored, or logged. This focused Extract Audio page is designed for editors, researchers, and learners saving a speech, soundtrack, interview, or lecture from a video. It opens directly to the working tool, rather than hiding the function inside a general converter or account dashboard.
A WebAssembly build of FFmpeg reads the media from browser memory, runs the selected codec operation on your CPU, and writes the result back to the tab. Your filename and file contents stay on the device. There is no upload queue, temporary cloud copy, account record, or server-side conversion job to delete later. That makes the tool practical for personal records, work material, and drafts that should not be handed to an unknown processing service.
The operation stays focused on pull the audio track from a video. You can inspect the result immediately and repeat the task with different settings without a quota or watermark. Processing speed and maximum size depend on your browser and available device memory, which is the honest trade-off for doing the work locally.
FileForge charges nothing for this tool and does not add a watermark. Once the page and its processing engine have loaded, the operation can continue without sending the file over the network. Use the numbered steps below, download the result, and review it before replacing an original file.
