The only AI transcription tool that is physically incapable of exfiltrating your trade secrets. No cloud. No telemetry. No data leaving the building.
Request Evaluation KitEvery time a researcher dictates notes into a cloud AI tool, proprietary data such as formulas, prototypes, and experimental results is transmitted to a third-party server you do not control.
Trade secret protection requires "reasonable measures" to maintain secrecy. Routing proprietary research through a cloud AI provider's infrastructure, where data may be logged, cached, or used for model training, can undermine your legal standing in a trade secret dispute.
Cloud-based dictation tools create an invisible data pipeline from your secure lab to external servers. Sensitive R&D data, including compound names, process parameters, and patent-pending innovations, travels over the internet in real time. A single compromised endpoint or rogue employee can erase your competitive advantage entirely.
Airgap Voice runs a neural network entirely on your local hardware. Your research data never touches a network interface.
The application binary has no network entitlement. It is sandboxed by macOS and physically incapable of opening an internet connection. Verify this yourself with Little Snitch, Wireshark, or Activity Monitor.
The entire AI model runs locally on your Mac's GPU. There is no cloud API, no remote inference server, and no internet connection required. Your audio is processed on-device in real time, and the results are delivered directly to the active application.
After each dictation session, all audio buffers and transcript data are overwritten with
zeros (0x00) in RAM. No residual data remains for forensic recovery, even
if the machine is physically seized.
Airgap Voice does not write transcripts, audio recordings, or usage telemetry to disk. Your dictation exists only in volatile memory during active use; once the session ends, the data is gone.
Dictate observations, measurements, and procedures directly into your electronic lab notebook during experiments. Hands-free, real-time transcription keeps you focused on the work, not the documentation.
Draft invention disclosures and patent applications at the speed of speech. Sensitive details about novel processes and compositions never leave your machine, preserving patentability and preventing prior art exposure.
For ITAR, EAR, or government-contracted R&D, Airgap Voice meets the fundamental requirement: no data transmission to foreign or third-party servers. It works on air-gapped workstations and inside restricted facilities.
