Your voice, your data.

All audio capture, transcription, and AI cleanup happen entirely on your Mac. No network requests are made during the dictation process.

Your dictation history, custom vocabulary, writing style settings, and all preferences are stored in a SQLite database at ~/Library/Application Support/com.kash.parrot/parrot.db. This file never leaves your device.

Parrot does not offer cloud transcription, cloud history sync, or managed accounts. There is nothing to opt into on our servers — the product is local-only.

You do not need an email, password, or third-party login to use Parrot.

Parrot does not include any analytics SDK, telemetry, or tracking pixels. We don't know how often you use the app, what you dictate, or how long your recordings are.

This website (the one you're reading) may use basic server logs (IP address, page visited) for operational purposes. We don't use third-party analytics services.

All dictation data (history, audio references, transcriptions) is stored locally in your app's SQLite database. Deleting the app or the database file removes all data permanently.

Transcription and cleanup run entirely on your Mac. No audio or transcripts are sent to any third party for processing.

If we change this policy, we'll update this page and note the date. For material changes, we'll mention it in the app's changelog. Last updated: July 2026.
