What is Privacy Scribe?

Privacy Scribe is a lightweight, local-first voice dictation tool for Windows that runs OpenAI Whisper entirely on your local machine with zero cloud uploads and zero subscriptions.

Key Features:

  • 100% Offline & Private: Transcriptions are processed locally on CPU/GPU via faster-whisper (CTranslate2). No voice audio leaves your computer.
  • Global Push-to-Talk: Hold a hotkey (Ctrl+Win, F8, Caps Lock) anywhere in Windows, speak naturally, and release to instantly auto-paste into your active app (VS Code, Notion, Obsidian, Slack, Word, Chrome).
  • Floating Acoustic HUD: Frosted acrylic visualizer gives real-time acoustic feedback without stealing window focus.
  • One-Time Purchase: Lifetime license alternative to monthly $15–$20/mo SaaS subscriptions (Wispr Flow, Superwhisper, Otter).
