Privacy policy,
or private by design?
Cloud controls govern how remote services handle data. VoicePrivate changes the path itself: speech recognition runs on your Mac or PC.

WHAT KEEPS COMING UP
The quiet problem
with cloud dictation.
We read what professionals are actually saying about Otter, Rev, Dragon, and the rest. The same complaints come up again and again.
It is training on my data.
A checkbox you clicked once now feeds your private transcripts into a vendor's model.
The bot recorded everyone without consent.
A calendar integration joins the call and records the whole room. No one got to say no.
Once audio hits a vendor server, you lost control of it.
Confidential work now sits on someone else's machine, under someone else's policy.
Human transcribers can read my files.
Off-the-record interview audio ends up in a pool strangers can listen to.
There is no offline mode.
It needs a constant connection, so it dies the moment the wifi does.
It hallucinates words nobody said.
Whole sentences appear that were never in the audio, dangerous inside a record.
The cheap tool is not cheap anymore.
Hidden caps and price hikes push you onto a business tier you never wanted.
Why rent forever?
People are told to avoid the expensive annual subscription when a local tool just works.
Dragon abandoned the Mac.
The desktop product sat unmaintained, then the remaining options moved to the cloud.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
A few good questions.
Does my dictation audio leave my computer?
No. Speech recognition runs on your device. VoicePrivate does not upload your dictation audio or transcript text to its servers.
Can I use it without an internet connection?
Yes. After installation and the required model download, dictation works offline. Licensing, downloads, and updates may use the internet.
Which edition should I choose?
Choose General for everyday writing, or the Healthcare, Legal, Finance, or Insurance edition for vocabulary tailored to that work.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every new individual monthly and annual subscription includes seven days free. A payment method is required, $0 is due today, and billing begins after seven days unless you cancel.
Does local processing make my entire workflow compliant?
Local recognition reduces data sent to a speech vendor. Your device security, destination applications, organization policies, and professional obligations still matter.
