Voxly turns your voice into clean text. This page explains, in plain language, what we collect, why, and the control you have over it.
The short version
We don't sell your data, and we don't use your dictations to train models.
Audio is used only to produce your text, then discarded from our servers.
Your message history lives on your device and in your own iCloud — not on our servers.
You can sign up with no email, name, or card.
What we collect
Voice recordings — when you dictate, the audio is sent to our service to be transcribed and cleaned. It is processed transiently and is not stored on our servers after your text is returned.
Cleaned text — the finished text is returned to your app and saved to your history on your device (and synced through your own iCloud if you enable sync). We do not keep a copy.
A device identifier — on first launch the app creates an anonymous token so your requests can be authenticated. No email, name, phone number, or password is required.
Anonymous usage signals — aggregate, non-identifying metrics (e.g. that a dictation happened, its length) so we can improve reliability and accuracy. These are not tied to your identity or the content of your messages.
How your voice is processed
To transcribe and clean your speech, audio and text are processed by trusted third-party AI providers acting on our behalf (a speech-to-text provider and a text-cleanup provider). They process the data only to return your result and do not use it to train their models under our configuration. Voxly does not sell, rent, or share your recordings or messages with advertisers or data brokers.
Storage and retention
Recordings: not retained after processing.
Your history: stored locally on your device, and in your personal iCloud account if sync is on. You can delete any message, or clear everything, from inside the app.
Anonymous analytics: retained in aggregate to understand product usage over time.
Your choices
Delete individual messages or your whole history in the app at any time.
Turn iCloud sync off in Settings.
Request deletion of any server-side data tied to your device token by contacting us.
Permissions
Voxly asks for microphone access (to record when you choose to) and, on Mac, Accessibility access (to type the cleaned text where your cursor is). It records only while you hold or toggle your dictation shortcut.
Beta
Voxly is currently in beta. Features and this policy may change as the product evolves. We'll update the date above when we make material changes.
