Frequently asked questions

Is my audio sent to the cloud?

Never. Recording, transcription and note-making all run on your computer. The app keeps working with the internet turned off.

What AI runs locally?

Whisper (speech-to-text) and Qwen (summaries, notes and refinement) — downloaded once on first launch, then they are yours, on your machine.

Do I need an account?

Yes — a free account (email code, Google, or Apple) is created during setup. It only identifies your license so a purchase follows you to a new computer; your recordings, transcripts, and notes stay on your machine and are never linked to it.

What does the free plan include?

Unlimited dictation, and up to 3 complete meetings per month — no time limits on any of them. Pro gives you unlimited meetings and the advanced AI features: $9.99/month, $89/year, or pay once and keep it.

Where is my data stored?

On your disk: recordings in a wavren-recordings folder (inside Movies on Mac, Music on Windows), notes and settings in the app’s data folder. Delete those and nothing exists anywhere.

What do I need to run it?

Wavren AI is built for all three desktop platforms. Mac is available today (Apple Silicon, M2 or newer); Windows and Linux are coming next, targeting current machines — processors released after January 2025, with a GPU. 16 GB of memory is recommended for the best models.

Which languages work?

English today, tuned for the best accuracy. More languages are on the roadmap — and each one arrives end to end, so transcription, notes and summaries all speak it together.

How does dictation work?

Hold the dictation key in any app, speak, release — your words are typed at the cursor, punctuated.

Can it take notes on my calls?

Yes — it captures your microphone and the call audio together, detects calls automatically, and stops when the call ends. Always make sure participants are okay with being recorded.

What data do you collect?

Anonymous usage counts and crash reports — never audio, transcripts or notes. You can switch it off any time in Settings, on every plan.

How do updates work?

The app checks for cryptographically signed updates and installs them in place. Your data never moves.

Can I get a refund?

Within 14 days, no questions asked — email support@wavren.ai.
