Flippy turns audio into WEBM for free: upload the audio above and download it wrapped as WEBM, sound untouched.

It sounds backwards, but audio to WEBM is a real need: plenty of platforms and tools only accept video, so Flippy re-packs your audio audio inside a WEBM wrapper. Nothing is re-recorded: the sound in your audio crosses over untouched, and the WEBM that comes out is built for embedding on the web without licensing worries.

Why flip audio to WEBM

Whatever the recording, audio just wants to be heard: the trick is picking a shape that plays where you need it. It was born in wherever your microphone, DAW or download came from, and its real weak spot is nothing in particular; the limits belong to whichever format it happens to be wearing.

WEBM is video the way browsers like it: open, royalty-free and built to stream. A Matroska-based container restricted to VP8/VP9/AV1 video with Vorbis or Opus audio. That makes it the right destination when what you need is embedding on the web without licensing worries.

Questions people ask

Will converting audio to WEBM lose quality?

No. Wrapping audio in a WEBM container doesn't touch the sound itself: it's the same stream in a different box.

Will the WEBM file be bigger or smaller than my audio?

About the same, plus a sliver of container overhead. The audio stream is unchanged; WEBM just adds a video-shaped envelope.

Where will the WEBM file play?

Every modern browser; hit-and-miss in editing apps and on Apple hardware. That's the usual reason people leave audio behind: WEBM simply opens in more of the places that matter.

How long does audio to WEBM conversion take?

It scales with length and resolution: short clips finish in seconds, long HD videos can take a few minutes. Files auto-delete within an hour after.
