Is my voice data secure?

The Web Speech API processes speech locally in your browser. While some browsers may use cloud services for improved accuracy, your audio is not stored or logged. Check your browser's privacy settings for more details.

Which browsers support speech transcription?

The Web Speech API is supported in Chrome, Edge, Safari, and most Chromium-based browsers. Firefox has limited support. You'll need to grant microphone permission for the tool to work.

Does this work offline?

Partial. The Web Speech API is built into browsers, but some browsers (like Chrome) may require an internet connection for the speech recognition service. Safari and Edge may work offline depending on your device settings.

Can I transcribe audio files?

This tool is designed for real-time microphone input only. For audio file transcription, you would need a different tool that supports file upload and playback.

How accurate is the transcription?

Accuracy depends on speech clarity, microphone quality, and background noise. In ideal conditions, the Web Speech API provides 90-95% accuracy for clear English speech. Accuracy may vary for accents and technical terminology.

Can I use this on my mobile phone?

Yes! The Web Speech API works on mobile browsers (iOS Safari, Chrome Mobile). You'll need to grant microphone permission through your browser settings.

What languages are supported?

Currently configured for English (US). The Web Speech API supports many languages, and we may add language selection in the future based on user demand.

Why does it stop listening automatically?

Some browsers automatically stop listening after a period of silence to save resources. Simply click "Start Transcription" again to continue.
