Talk Ink

Privacy

Your words stay yours.

Talk Ink is designed so your voice data is never stored, never sold, and never used to train AI. That's not a policy — it's the architecture.

No Data Retention

Every API call includes store=false. Your audio is transcribed and immediately discarded. We never store your voice or your text on our servers.

Zero Tracking

No analytics. No crash reporting. No tracking pixels. No third-party SDKs. We don't even know how many users we have.

Local-First Option

Switch to on-device transcription and your voice never leaves your Mac. Zero cloud calls, zero data transmission.

How your data flows

Simple, transparent, and ephemeral.

01

Speak

Your voice is captured by your microphone and encrypted.

02

Process

Audio is sent via encrypted connection to our transcription service. Text is returned.

03

Discard

Audio is immediately deleted. We never store recordings or transcripts.

What we know about you

The list of things we collect is short. The list of things we don't collect is long — intentionally.

What we collect

  • Email address (for your account)
  • Subscription status (for billing)

What we never collect

  • Voice recordings
  • Transcription text
  • Usage analytics
  • Browsing behavior
  • Device fingerprints
  • Crash reports
  • Location data
  • Contact lists
