How it works
Your recordings are turned into text on your own computer. They are never uploaded.
Nothing leaves your device
The file is read and transcribed inside this browser tab. The only download is our speech engine, once, the first time you use the tool. It is 44–566 MB depending on the quality and has nothing to do with the size of your files, which can be any length.
The right quality for your device
The tool checks what your device can handle and picks the most accurate quality that still runs at a good speed. If it gets slower, for example on battery, it switches to a lighter quality so your file still finishes. You can also pick the quality yourself.
Check it yourself
Use the tool once so the speech engine is downloaded, then switch off your internet and transcribe another file. It still works, because nothing needs to leave your computer.
