The format

What OGG actually is

OGG is an open container that almost always holds Opus audio. It is the format WhatsApp and Telegram use for the voice notes you send and receive every day. The files are tiny, often a few kilobytes per second, because Opus is built to compress speech hard while keeping it intelligible.

Opus was designed for speech, so these tiny files transcribe very well despite their size. A WhatsApp or Telegram voice note exported as OGG comes back as clean text without any conversion. The format is doing exactly what it was made for. As always the recording underneath sets the ceiling: a note recorded in a quiet room beats one shouted over traffic, regardless of how small the file is.

Where these files come from

WhatsApp and Telegram voice notes, and other messaging and chat apps that record voice using the Opus codec.
