Privacy

Local first by design.

HyperYap is built to work without sending recordings or transcripts to a cloud transcription service by default.

What HyperYap does not do

  • It does not include analytics or telemetry.
  • It does not collect or sell user data.
  • It does not upload recordings or transcriptions by default.

Local data

HyperYap stores settings, custom dictionary words, formatting rules, and optional LLM configuration on your device. API keys are handled through the operating system keyring where supported.

Transcription history is memory-only unless you explicitly enable persisted history. When enabled, only the last five transcriptions are saved.

Network usage

The app may contact GitHub for update checks and downloads. Other network behavior is opt-in, such as connecting to a local or remote LLM endpoint you configure, or enabling the localhost HTTP API.
