Where the privacy decision sits
Aqua says transcript history is not stored on its servers and advertises SOC 2 Type II. Enterprise separately lists zero data retention, so confirm the plan and processing path for sensitive use.
For confidential, regulated, employment, medical, legal, or client material, verify the exact plan, selected model, retention settings, subprocessors, and contract—not just the homepage claim.
Watch-outs
- Current Windows support is not as clearly presented as Mac/iOS.
- Offline processing was not confirmed.
- Exact month-to-month Pro price is not published on the pricing page.
- Zero data retention is explicitly listed for Enterprise.
