SpeakEasy STT — legal and privacy documents
Version 1.0.0_2026.08.17_1051 — Last updated: August 17, 2026
These terms apply to software offered on our Preview / Research page. They are separate from, and take precedence over, the license and terms that accompany our released products, solely as to Preview Software.
In these terms, “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Randy Glenn Garland, an individual doing business as Affiniti Group.
Software offered on this page is preview, experimental, or research software (“Preview Software”). It is provided for evaluation and feedback only. It is not a released product, it has not completed the testing our released products receive, and it may be incomplete, unstable, or withdrawn at any time without notice. Features may change or disappear between builds. Preview Software is not intended or licensed for production, commercial, or mission-critical use.
THE PREVIEW 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. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING WHETHER USE OF THE PREVIEW SOFTWARE IS APPROPRIATE, AND YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ASSOCIATED WITH THAT USE, INCLUDING RISK OF DATA LOSS, SYSTEM INSTABILITY, AND ERRORS IN OUTPUT.
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 Preview 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 Preview 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.
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 PREVIEW SOFTWARE OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PREVIEW SOFTWARE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE PREVIEW SOFTWARE, WHICH MAY BE ZERO, 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 these terms 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 these terms limits any rights you have under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 93A, or any implied warranty that Massachusetts law does not permit us to disclaim.
Preview Software is provided without any obligation to supply support, updates, bug fixes, or migration to a released version. We may discontinue it, change it, or decline to release it as a product at any time.
If you send us feedback, bug reports, or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you. Please do not send us anything you consider confidential or that you are not free to share.
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.
Preview 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.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. We may update these terms; the version in effect is the one published here at the time you download.
By downloading or using Preview Software, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these terms, and you accept the risks described above.
