Vox JotJuly 31, 2026
1. Local audio and transcript handling
Vox Jot is built as a local-first desktop dictation app. Normal recording, transcription, and paste output are designed to run on your device by default. Irie Dinamik does not need transcript telemetry to provide the core app experience.
In local-only mode, Vox Jot does not send dictation audio or transcripts to cloud AI providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google. For healthcare and other regulated workflows, this can reduce the need for third-party cloud AI Business Associate Agreements for dictation itself. Optional cloud refinement should be used only with your approved provider, credentials, and compliance setup.
2. App permissions
The app may request microphone access for recording. Global shortcuts, paste output, and automation behavior may require macOS Accessibility or Automation permissions. These permissions are controlled by macOS and can be changed in System Settings.
3. Model and runtime downloads
Vox Jot may download model files, OCR runtimes, speech runtimes, update metadata, or other required assets from Irie Dinamik's download storage, Hugging Face, or similar artifact hosts. These downloads are for making local features work and may reveal basic network information such as your IP address to the host that serves the file.
4. Website measurement
The Vox Jot pages send a small, first-party event to an Irie Dinamik Cloudflare Worker for page views and clicks on download, checksum, source, and support links. The database stores only the date, event type, broad campaign channel, and an aggregate count. It does not store cookies, account IDs, IP addresses, full URLs, referrers, browser fingerprints, transcripts, or audio. The website still works normally if this request is blocked. Aggregate rows are deleted after 400 days.
Cloudflare and the site host may process ordinary network metadata, such as IP address and user agent, to deliver and protect their services under their own terms. Irie Dinamik does not copy that metadata into the Vox Jot launch metrics database.
5. Optional app diagnostics
Support requests should not include private transcripts unless you intentionally choose to share them. Anonymous crash reporting in the app is off by default and can be enabled or disabled in Privacy & Storage. When enabled, Sentry may receive crash stack traces and technical app/version information, but not dictation audio, transcripts, prompts, screen content, or API keys.
Anonymous usage metrics are a separate switch and are also off by default. If enabled, Vox Jot sends only an app-launch event, the first successful-dictation event in each app session, and a one-time week-one return event to Irie Dinamik's aggregate metrics service. The return milestone is calculated locally; neither its date nor an installation identifier is sent. Usage metrics do not include dictation text, audio, prompts, screen content, timing details, account IDs, or advertising identifiers. Turning crash reports on does not turn usage metrics on, and vice versa.
6. No sale of transcript data
Irie Dinamik does not sell Vox Jot transcripts or audio recordings. The product is intended to make local dictation faster, not to build an advertising or transcript brokerage profile.
