"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Yes, QuickDictate is free for personal and any other noncommercial use under the PolyForm Noncommercial license (the source is on GitHub), with no subscription, no QuickDictate account, and no monthly bill; commercial use is licensed per installation: US$19.99 once or US$1.99 a month from LunarWerx Studios. Cloud audio goes only to the provider you pick using your own key, and Local mode processes everything on your PC; there is no QuickDictate transcription server in the middle."

"@type": "Question",
"name": "Does QuickDictate work offline?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Yes. Choose Local in Settings, install one model, and keep every recording on your PC; no API key or internet connection is needed after installation. QuickDictate offers three local models: Cohere Transcribe Q5, a 1.65 GiB accuracy-first default, Whisper Large v3 Turbo Q5, a 591 MiB option with the broadest language coverage, and Parakeet TDT v3 Q5, a 524 MiB option that is the fastest and covers 25 European languages."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "Which speech-to-text providers can I use?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "QuickDictate supports six bring-your-own-key cloud services: ElevenLabs, Deepgram, OpenAI, AssemblyAI, DashScope, and Google Cloud, plus an optional fully offline Local mode with no key at all. Five cloud engines stream words as you talk; Google Cloud and Local finish after you release the hotkey, with clear processing feedback while they work."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "What operating systems does QuickDictate support?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "QuickDictate runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit, as a small tray app. Hold the F13 hotkey to talk, or tap F14 to toggle recording on and off, and your speech types directly into whatever app has focus: an editor, a chat box, a terminal, or a web form. No F13 or F14 on your keyboard? Pick any other key, combo or mouse button in Settings > Dictation."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "Does QuickDictate require an account or collect my data?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "No account, no sign-up, and no dashboard. Nothing you dictate ever reaches us: with Local selected, audio is processed entirely on your PC; with a cloud provider, it goes directly to only the service you chose, using your own key; there is no QuickDictate transcription server in the middle. The only thing QuickDictate sends on its own is a once-a-day update check, which carries a random install id and nothing else, and you can switch it off. An anonymized usage rollup (word and dictation totals, which providers you use) exists too, and it is off until you turn it on."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "Can I use multiple API keys with one provider?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Yes. If you stack a few keys for one cloud provider, QuickDictate spreads requests across them and automatically routes around any key that is dead or throttled. Settings also let you install, select, cancel a download for, or delete either local model at any time."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "How is QuickDictate different from Windows' built-in dictation or Dragon?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Windows Voice Access dictates offline for free but only through Windows' own speech engine, and Dragon Professional is a paid, Windows-only licensed product with pricing available on request. QuickDictate instead lets you pick from six bring-your-own-key cloud engines or three offline models, typing into any focused app with global hotkeys and per-app profiles."
}
},
{
"@type": "Question",
"name": "What does QuickDictate cost?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "QuickDictate itself is free for noncommercial use (PolyForm Noncommercial license), with no subscription, no QuickDictate account and no feature held back for a paid tier; using it at work needs a licence, US$19.99 once or US$1.99 a month per PC. If you choose a cloud provider, you pay that provider directly under your own API key at its own pricing; Local mode's three offline models are free to download and run, with no key or account needed at all."
