JustScribe's privacy policy says saved transcripts stay on your Mac until you move them to the Trash or delete the files yourself.

In the source's own words

“They stay on your Mac until you move them to the Trash from that window or delete the files yourself.”

JustScribe Privacy Policy, Quassum, 2026, Privacy policy, How the App works section.

Open the original
What it measures
The transcripts of Long Dictation, Live Transcription and Transcribe File are plain-text files in the app's own folder on the Mac. The Transcripts window shows them, and Show in Finder opens the folder.
What it does not show
No number of days, because the rule depends on the user. If Keep Audio Recordings is on, the recording is removed with its transcript. The policy does not say how long a transcript stays if the user does nothing.

In the data

A row of How Long Voice Assistants Keep Your Recordings, as JustScribe, saved transcripts: until you move them to the Trash days.
