Questions

Frequently asked questions

Still have a question? Contact us and weโ€™ll help.

Does Paraspeech require an internet connection?
Local models work offline after download. Cloud features need an internet connection.
Will Paraspeech slow down my Mac?
Larger local models can use more CPU, GPU, and memory while active.
Which apps does Paraspeech work with?
With Accessibility permission, Paraspeech can insert text into many editable Mac fields. Unsupported fields may require manual paste.
Is my voice data private?
When dictation runs locally, audio is processed on your Mac. Eligible dictation may use cloud processing when a local model is unavailable. Privacy Mode blocks cloud transcription and cloud rewriting for dictation. Meeting Mode recordings and automatic cloud summaries are separate.
What hardware do I need?
You need macOS 14.0 or later. Local models run on Apple Silicon; Intel Macs use cloud models with a subscription. Paraspeech for iPhone and iPad requires iOS or iPadOS 17.0 or later.
How does the trial work?
Direct Monthly and Yearly checkout includes a 7-day trial with unlimited transcriptions. Eligible referral and App Store offers may differ; check the terms at checkout.
What languages does Paraspeech support?
Available local models include English, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese and 25 European languages. Multilingual Large offers 100+ in the direct-download Mac app where available.
Can I use Paraspeech on multiple devices?
Yes. Subscriptions cover your Macs, iPhones, and iPads. Lifetime covers your personal devices for local features.
How do I use Paraspeech?
Hold your shortcut, speak, and release. Review the inserted text, or paste it manually if the field does not support insertion.
