Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is my voice sent to any server?

No. Transcription happens entirely on your Mac, on the Neural Engine. Only the already-transcribed text is sent to AI post-formatting, and only if you enable it.

What's the difference between subscription and lifetime?

With the subscription, we provide the post-formatting AI: nothing to configure. With the lifetime license (made for technical users) you bring your own AI key and pay once.

Does it work in any application?

Yes. Sonux pastes the text into whatever app is active: email, browser, code editor, chat… wherever your cursor is.

What do I need to use it?

A Mac with macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later (Apple Silicon or Intel). The local voice model downloads the first time you use it.

Can I have my notes on several devices?

Yes, optionally. If you enable it, your notes, history and meetings sync to your account so you have them on any device. By default, everything stays local.
