SpeakEasy STT — legal and privacy documents
Version 1.0.0_2026.08.17_1058 — Last updated: August 17, 2026
This End User License Agreement (“Agreement”) is between you and Randy Glenn Garland, an individual doing business as Affiniti Group (“we,” “us,” “our”). It governs your use of the SpeakEasy STT application and any accompanying files, models, and documentation (the “Software”).
By installing or using the Software, you agree to this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software.
This Agreement covers use of the compiled application. The Software’s source code is governed separately by the LICENSE file distributed with it.
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software on devices you own or control, for your own personal use or the internal business use of your organization.
You may not:
The Software is licensed, not sold. We and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in the Software, including all intellectual property rights. This Agreement grants you no rights except those expressly stated in section 1. Text you dictate and transcripts the Software produces are yours; we claim no ownership of your content.
Automatic speech recognition makes mistakes. Transcribed output may contain incorrect, missing, or fabricated words, including errors that reverse the meaning of a sentence (for example, dropping the word “not”). Recognition quality varies with microphone, accent, background noise, vocabulary, and model. YOU MUST REVIEW ALL TRANSCRIBED TEXT BEFORE RELYING ON IT.
Do not use the Software to produce medical records, legal filings, financial instructions, safety instructions, or any other content where an undetected transcription error could cause injury, loss, or legal harm.
The Software inserts transcribed text into other applications and may use the system clipboard to do so. Text is delivered to whichever application holds input focus at that moment, and clipboard contents may be overwritten. You are responsible for confirming that text is inserted where you intend, and for keeping backups of any document you dictate into.
The Software requires access to your microphone to function, and you grant that access through Windows. You are responsible for using the Software in a manner consistent with the law where you are, including any law governing the recording of conversations or the recording of other people.
The Software uses speech recognition models. Some models may be downloaded from third-party sources the first time they are used. Those downloads are subject to the terms and privacy practices of the source, which we do not control. Model files may be large and may consume metered bandwidth.
Where you obtained the Software from the Microsoft Store, updates are delivered by the Microsoft Store according to your Windows settings. Where you obtained the Software directly from us, it may check for and install updates automatically. Updates may add, change, or remove features. This Agreement governs any update unless the update is accompanied by its own terms.
Speech is transcribed entirely on your own computer. Your audio and the text transcribed from it are not transmitted to us or to anyone else.
The Software downloads its speech-to-text model once, from our own public repository, and verifies the file against a known SHA-256 hash before using it. That transfer sends none of your data.
If you choose to send us a diagnostic log to help investigate a problem you have reported, that log records events and timings only — never the words you dictate. Nothing is sent unless you decide to send it.
Our full privacy policy is at https://123t4me.com/legal/privacy-policy/. Where this summary and the privacy policy differ, the privacy policy governs.
We may, but are not obliged to, provide support, updates, or bug fixes. Any support we do provide is furnished under this Agreement and creates no additional warranty.
The Software incorporates third-party components licensed under their own terms, including Handy (Copyright (c) 2025 CJ Pais, MIT License). Those components are not covered by this Agreement and remain subject to their own licenses. The applicable notices are reproduced in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md, distributed with the Software. Nothing in this Agreement limits any right you hold in those components under their respective licenses.
This Agreement takes effect when you install the Software and continues until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach it. You may terminate it at any time by uninstalling the Software and deleting all copies. On termination you must stop using the Software and remove it from your devices. Sections 3, 4, 5, 13, 14, 15, and 17 survive termination.
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, ACCURACY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT TRANSCRIPTION WILL BE ACCURATE. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, INCLUDING RISK OF DATA LOSS AND ERRORS IN OUTPUT.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL RANDY GLENN GARLAND, DOING BUSINESS AS AFFINITI GROUP, OR ANY OF OUR CONTRACTORS OR LICENSORS, BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
If you are a Massachusetts consumer, nothing in this Agreement limits any rights you have under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 93A, or any implied warranty that Massachusetts law does not permit us to disclaim.
Where you obtained the Software through the Microsoft Store, your use is also subject to the Microsoft Standard Application License Terms. If those terms conflict with this Agreement, they control to the extent of the conflict for that copy of the Software.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. It is the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Software and supersedes any prior understanding on that subject. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign this Agreement; we may assign it in connection with a transfer of the business.
We may update this Agreement. The version in effect for a given copy of the Software is the version accompanying that copy, or the version published at https://123t4me.com/legal/eula/ at the time you install or update.
