One of these bills stops growing.
Cloud-based voice tools structurally can't offer lifetime. Every transcription costs them money. Ours doesn't, so we charge once. See the full head-to-head with Wispr Flow.
A subscription pays for a server. We don't have one.
Subscriptions exist to cover a cost that keeps repeating. The cloud apps bill you every month because every transcription you make costs them money. TypeTalk has no such cost, so we charge $99 once and honor the license forever.
Zero servers
There is no inference cloud behind TypeTalk. The model runs on your machine, so we never pay for a GPU to transcribe your words. A customer who dictates all day costs us exactly the same as one who never opens the app: nothing.
Zero API bills
We don't rent transcription from anyone. The whole engine ships inside the app and runs locally. No per-minute metering, no usage tier to upsell you into, no reason to cap your session at six minutes.
Nothing to host
Your voice and your transcripts never leave the laptop, so there is no storage to pay for and no account database to maintain. That removes the single recurring cost that forces every cloud tool onto a subscription.
A cloud tool that tried to match this would be selling at a loss on its heaviest users. The math only works because TypeTalk runs where you do.
