Privacy policy
Echo Flow is built to feel like an extension of your thoughts, not a leak of your data. This document explains what we do (and don’t do) with your information.
“I just left it on mini. Works fine. Didn’t overthink it,” says Ken, who writes code comments all day in Osaka. He tried midi once. Went back.
Mini is the default for a reason.
1. Core principle: your writing stays on your Mac
Echo Flow is designed so your dictated audio, transcripts, polished text, rewritten text, history entries, snippets, styles, and personal dictionary stay on your Mac. We do not upload that content for polishing, rewriting, training.
Or cloud transcription.
2. Polish and rewrite
Polish and rewrite — including capitalization, punctuation, grammar, tone refinement, action-item extraction, and plain-English rewriting, run locally after setup. No dictated or selected text is sent to Echo Flow servers for this.
Echo Flow uses Echo Flow AI, local cleanup, and protected-term safeguards:
3. Data stored on your device
Echo Flow may store some information locally in order to function:
You can clear history from within the app. We recommend doing this regularly if you work with highly sensitive information.
4. Telemetry & logs
To keep Echo Flow stable, the app records limited diagnostic information, such as:
Performance and latency statistics are never transmitted automatically. They leave your device only if you explicitly export or share them yourself. We do not intentionally log your actual dictated content. Where logs might accidentally include fragments of text (for example, provider error messages), we work to minimise and periodically delete this data.
5. Network connections and email collection
Echo Flow is not a cloud transcription service, but some operational features do contact servers: the one-time Echo Flow AI setup download, app update checks, license activation and validation, purchase redirects, and optional email signup on the download page.
Commerce and licensing
6. Your choices and controls
7. Contact for privacy questions
