Hi Dana, thanks for sending the revised agreement. I've read it through and sections 2 and 4 look right to me. One change: can we push the delivery date to the 15th so there's time for the client's review?
Put your cursor anywhere you can type. Hold Space on Windows, or fn on a Mac.
Talk naturally. Pause, rephrase, say “scratch that”, keep going.
Clean, punctuated text lands where your cursor was. Your audio never left your computer.
Works in Outlook, Word, Gmail, Slack, Teams, Notion, Obsidian, VS Code and your browser. Anywhere you can type.

No new editor to learn. ScrinkleScribe works inside the apps you already use.
Transcription runs on a Whisper model on your own computer, in every configuration. Your audio is never sent anywhere.
Hold the hotkey and talk. Text lands wherever your cursor is: email, Slack, Word, your code editor, a browser form.
A local AI pass adds punctuation and drops the ums, uhs and stutters. Say “new paragraph”, “bullet point” or “scratch that” and it does what you mean.
Capitalization and spacing match the text around your cursor, and the writing style adapts to the app: email, chat or Markdown.
Select some text, hold the command key and say how to change it. ScrinkleScribe rewrites the selection in place.
Add names, product terms and jargon to your custom dictionary so they come out right the first time.
Speech is transcribed by a model on your own disk, on both platforms, in every configuration. No account, no analytics, no telemetry. Here is everything that does touch the internet.
Check it yourself: after setup, switch off Wi-Fi and dictate. It keeps working.
Read the full privacy policy →How on-device dictation works →
When the app starts it checks your key with Polar, our payment provider: the key and an activation id (plus your computer's name when you first activate). Never audio or text. Offline, it keeps working for 14 days.
Installing fetches the speech model and the components the app runs on. After that, dictation works with no internet connection.
If you choose to use your own cloud AI key for text cleanup, your dictated text (and up to 60 characters before your cursor) goes to that provider. The app asks before the first one. Your audio never does.
Draft memos and emails by voice without client details passing through a cloud service.

Only in the three ways the privacy policy lists. Setup downloads the speech model and the components the app runs on, once. When the app starts it checks your license with Polar, sending the key and an activation id (and your computer's name when you first activate a computer), never audio or text; offline, it keeps working for 14 days. And if you choose to switch on the optional online cleanup engine with your own API key, your dictated text and up to 60 characters before your cursor go to that provider. It is off by default.
It uses OpenAI's open Whisper models, running on your computer: large-v3-turbo on an NVIDIA graphics card or a Mac with 16 GB or more, and the smaller small.en model otherwise. Accuracy depends on your microphone, accent and vocabulary, so the free trial is the honest test. Add names and jargon to the custom dictionary to help it.
No. You pay once and the license never expires. All 1.x updates are included. A future 2.0 would be a separate, optional upgrade.
Get a free trial key, install the app and use the complete application for 14 days on up to three computers. No card required. When it ends, buy a license to keep going; anything you dictated stays yours.
If it doesn't work for you, email us within 14 days of purchase for a full refund. No questions asked.
On Windows: Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, with 16 GB of RAM recommended. An NVIDIA graphics card lets it run the larger, more accurate speech model. On Mac: macOS 13 or later on Apple silicon (M1 or newer).
No. The app has no sign-up and no login. You get a license key by email and paste it in. If you ever need the key again, Polar's customer portal sends a one-time code to your purchase email.
Try the full app free for 14 days, then pay once if it earns its place.
