Privacy policy · Last updated June 2026
Privacy
The short version: Quobi runs on your device. It doesn’t send your voice, your transcripts, or what you do with them to us or anyone else. We don’t have accounts, and we don’t run servers that touch your data.
The app
When you dictate, your audio is recorded, transcribed, and cleaned up entirely on your own computer or phone. None of it is uploaded. There’s no account to create, no analytics, no crash reporting, and no “phone-home.” Disconnect from the network and Quobi works exactly the same.
Downloading Quobi and its models
To install Quobi you download files from GitHub, and Quobi downloads its speech and cleanup models from Hugging Face. Those are ordinary web requests, and GitHub and Hugging Face may log your IP address as part of serving the file, under their own privacy policies. Once the download finishes, nothing further is sent.
Optional cloud transcription
Quobi can optionally use a cloud provider for transcription if you turn it on yourself and supply your own API key. This is off by default. If you enable it, only the audio for that request is sent to that provider under their terms, and your key is stored only on your device. Leave it off and everything stays local.
This website
quobi.ai is a static site. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics or trackers, and doesn’t try to identify you. It’s hosted on Vercel, which keeps standard server logs (such as IP addresses and request times) to deliver and protect the site. See Vercel’s privacy policy for details.
Your data stays yours
Because we never receive your data, there’s nothing for us to sell, share, or hand over. Your dictation history, if you choose to keep it, lives in a file on your device that you can delete at any time.
Changes
If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
