Soundwise.ai: Free AI Transcription That Respects Your Privacy (soundwise.ai)

It sounds interesting, but the title and content of the linked page don’t explain how privacy is ensured, and the fact that it requires logging in with Google also leaves me puzzled. Can you explain?

If you’re interested in privacy and data sovereignty, you should know that on my Substack, “Own Your Data,” I provide weekly analysis of tech news, political moves, and corporate strategies through the lens of data sovereignty and privacy: https://ownyourdatamp.substack.com/

And I’m working on building Meishi, a privacy-first contacts app with E2EE, P2P, and open source: https://www.meishiapp.com/


I know it is asking for too much but a speaker differentiation option just like WhisperX has would be a killer feature even if it was behind a paywall. Too bad getting WhisperX to run locally is a pain and needs a bunch of specifics like a downgraded FFMpeg to work.
