Open the original- What it measures
- DeLive is a free, open source desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux. The FAQ lists Soniox, Groq and whisper.cpp as provider choices and describes whisper.cpp as offline.
- What it does not show
- No number of days, and no deletion rule. The FAQ does not say how long audio is kept by the chosen provider. The docs site at docs.delive.me says 'Your data never leaves your machine', which does not match audio going to a cloud provider.
