Your data. Your device. Your business.
Total data sovereignty for those who refuse to compromise on privacy. On-device transcription with hardware-backed encryption and zero cloud exposure.
Privacy is not a feature. It's the architecture.
True Data Sovereignty
We don't just promise privacy; we architect for it. Your audio is processed on device for transcription and is never sent to transcription or training servers.
Keys in Your Mac's Keychain
Encryption keys live in your Mac's Keychain, and we never see your keys or your data. Everything is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM.
Cryptographic Deletion
When you delete a session, its key is destroyed. No hidden backups, no cloud synchronization. Once the key is gone, the data can no longer be read on your Mac.
Zero Cloud Footprint
No telemetry on your transcript content and no 'improving our models' with your voice. Parrot Scribe is a tool, not a data harvester.
