Private, local voice to text
Most dictation apps send your voice to the cloud. Speakly does not have to. With local Whisper + Ollama models, transcription runs entirely on your device — your audio and text never leave your machine.
How Speakly keeps you private
- Fully local mode: Whisper + Ollama run on-device, with zero data sent to any server.
- Your transcripts are stored locally, not in our cloud.
- Bring-your-own-key mode talks to your chosen provider directly — never through us.
- No account data mining, no selling your data.
- Works offline, so sensitive work never needs an internet connection.
Who local dictation is for
- Lawyers, doctors and anyone handling confidential information.
- Developers who don’t want code or prompts leaving their machine.
- Privacy-conscious users who prefer on-device AI.
- Teams in regulated environments that limit cloud data.
Privacy & security — FAQ
Does my audio ever leave my device?
In local mode, no. Whisper + Ollama run on your machine and nothing is uploaded. If you choose a cloud provider via bring-your-own-key, audio goes directly to that provider — never through Speakly.
Where are my transcripts stored?
Locally on your device. Speakly does not keep your transcripts in our cloud.
Can I use Speakly fully offline?
Yes. With local models, dictation works with no internet connection at all.
Is it a subscription?
No — a one-time $20 lifetime license with a 7-day free trial.
