Built to stay on your device.
Engineered for accuracy.
Every feature is designed to keep client dictation on your device while delivering courtroom-ready transcription.
On-device architecture
Client dictation stays on your device at every stage of processing. No cloud. No uploads. No third-party servers.
12,000+ legal terms. Advanced AI. Advanced hallucination removal.
Our on-device processing stack is optimized for legal accuracy with voice activity detection, model inference, hallucination stripping, legal dictionary injection, snippet expansion, and on-device cleanup of filler words, punctuation and capitalization.
- 10,000+ built-in legal terms, torts, statutes, case law terminology, Latin phrases
- Automatic cleanup, punctuation and capitalization fixed on the device
- Hallucination stripping removes phantom text from silent segments
- Optional filler word removal for cleaner output
- Custom vocabulary biasing and post-processing corrections
- Text shortcuts, say "slash depo" or type /depo to expand a full deposition header template with 5 pre-loaded legal shortcuts
- Legal citations in standard form, case, statute and rule citations are written the way they are cited, for example Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, 509 U.S. 579 (1993), 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and Rule 12(b)(6). Turn it off in Settings, Transcription, Format legal citations.
- Legal wording, "waiver" and "tortious" are chosen over "waver" and "tortuous" when the legal wording calls for it, and "laches" is spelled correctly.

Make it yours.
Make your own voice commands. Pick a phrase, such as "sign off", and choose what it does: insert text, press Return or Tab, wait a moment, or insert a text shortcut, in order. Say the phrase on its own with the dictation shortcut and the steps run in the app you are typing in. Voice commands never open apps, websites or files, and they only run with Auto-paste on. They are included in your backups, and you can export them to a file and import them on another computer.
Fix and format by voice. Say "scratch that", "delete that" or "undo that" on its own to remove your last dictation from the app it was pasted into, within 2 minutes, as long as the text there has not changed. Say "spell" and then the letters, for example "the spell M E R R E L L case" gives "the Merrell case", and "cap" before a letter for a capital. Say "cap" before a word to capitalize it, "all caps" before a word to write it in capitals, "no space" to join two words, and "caps on" and "caps off" to write the words between them in capitals. On Windows, "scratch that" works in web browsers such as Edge, Chrome and Brave and in standard text boxes such as Notepad. In apps that do not let VoicePrivate read their text, you get a short note instead.
Fill blanks by voice. When a text shortcut has blanks, say "insert", the shortcut name and the values, and they go into the blanks. Field names are optional for numbers, which fill the blanks in order. Say "skip" or "next field" to leave a blank, "end fields" to go back to dictating, and "wait no" to correct a value. Blanks you do not fill stay as ___. On a Mac, the first unfilled blank is selected after the paste, in apps that show their text to macOS Accessibility.
Edit & Teach. Fix a take in the main window with Edit & teach, then click Apply & Learn. VoicePrivate counts each correction toward the word you corrected, even when it was misheard differently each time, and a word you have corrected three times joins your Personal Dictionary. The Learning section of the Personal Dictionary shows the counts, and Forget removes one.
Bring your vocabulary with you. One Import button in the Personal Dictionary reads a Dragon word list (text or XML), a plain word list, a CSV or tab separated file, an Excel workbook (.xlsx) or a VoicePrivate export. You review the terms before anything is added, and importing never removes or overwrites a term you already have.
Vocabulary sets and team packs. Group names and terms per matter or client, for example "Smith v. Jones", and switch each set on or off in the Personal Dictionary, in Settings or from the menu bar. Terms in a set that is off are not used. Save chosen sets and shortcuts as a .vppack file, share it, and import it on another computer. You preview a pack before importing it, and Remove this pack takes out everything it added.
Terms from your documents. Pick files or a folder (.txt, .md, .docx and PDF) and VoicePrivate finds names, case names, acronyms and unusual words to add to a set. PDFs are read on Windows and Mac, and scanned PDFs and photos of documents are read with your computer's built-in text recognition. Reading happens on your device.
A Help Center with videos. Every feature has a step by step guide with examples for Legal, plus a Switching from Dragon section. Guides come with the app and work offline, and short help videos made for the Legal edition play inside the app for licensed users.
Tamper-evident audit log. A chained record of every transcription.
Every transcription is recorded in a chained audit trail. Entries are linked with SHA-256 checksums, which makes edits to past entries detectable. Export the full log as JSON for internal compliance reviews.
- SHA-256 hash chain, each entry is linked to the previous one, making edits to past entries detectable
- Design assertion, each entry carries the app's no-outbound design assertion for the transcription path
- Compliance export, one-click JSON export for internal compliance reviews
- No third-party risk, privileged dictation never touches a cloud server or third-party processor
- Chain verification, built-in integrity check validates the linkage of the recorded entries
- Encrypted backup & restore, create encrypted backups of your transcription database and restore on any device. On Windows, VoicePrivate also backs up automatically about once an hour to a folder you choose and keeps the last 10.
Audit Log Entry
A dashboard for your firm.
Contact us and we will give you a dashboard to administer all the licences for your firm. The administrator signs in with a link sent to their email, so there is no account or password to set up. The dashboard shows every licence on the firm and which computer uses it. If somebody leaves, release their seat or revoke their key, then issue a new key so the seat is reused by someone else.
