Frequently Asked Questions

Is Vowen really free?

Yes, absolutely! Vowen is completely free to download and use. There are no hidden fees, no subscription tiers, and no credit card required. You get unlimited local transcription, core voice control, and utilities at no cost. The only optional paid component is if you choose to connect your own API key for the advanced AI features, giving you full control over your expenses.

Does Vowen work offline?

Yes, and this is a core advantage! All speech-to-text transcription is processed 100% locally on your device. This means you can dictate, transcribe, and use voice commands without an internet connection. It ensures maximum privacy, security, and blazing-fast performance since your audio data never needs to be sent to the cloud.

What languages are supported?

Vowen supports transcription in over 99 languages and dialects, making it a truly global tool. Whether you're working in English, Spanish, Mandarin, French, Hindi, or dozens more, you can dictate naturally and accurately. The AI features also support translation and processing across this wide range of languages.

Is my data private and secure?

Privacy is our top priority. Because transcription happens locally on your computer, your voice data and transcripts never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to use a cloud-based AI service with your own key. We do not collect, store, or sell your personal audio or transcript data. You maintain complete ownership and control.
