Audio is local by default

VoiceTypr runs transcription on your computer by default.

• No audio is uploaded during normal local transcription
• No training-on-your-data language
• No account required for the core offline workflow

Network activity can happen when you choose it:

• Checking for app updates
• Validating your license (if purchased)
• Sending text to an optional AI formatting provider you configured
• Sending audio only if you explicitly use a cloud or network transcription mode

What's Stored Locally

AI Formatting and optional network paths

If you enable AI formatting presets (Default, Prompts, Email, Commit):

• Text may be sent to your chosen AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, or a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint)
• Audio is not sent for formatting — only the transcribed text
• You control the provider, the key, and whether formatting is enabled

VoiceTypr may also offer optional non-local transcription modes, such as cloud STT or local-network sharing. Those are opt-in paths, not the default offline workflow.

No background telemetry

VoiceTypr does not run background usage analytics.

If you manually submit a support, bug, or crash report, the app can send the details you choose to share, including redacted logs and system information needed to debug the issue.

The website (voicetypr.com) uses OpenPanel for analytics and optional marketing/attribution tags only after consent where required.

Open Source

VoiceTypr is an open-source app built on open-source local transcription models, including Whisper. You can inspect the public desktop repository on GitHub and still keep the normal offline workflow local by default.
