VoxVerbatim
VoxVerbatim's code is MIT-licensed and open source. These terms cover what that means, and what you're responsible for when you connect it to third-party speech services.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legal agreement between you and Subverting Complexity ("we", "us", "our") governing your use of the VoxVerbatim application ("the app"). They incorporate, and should be read together with, our Privacy Policy.
VoxVerbatim's source code is published on GitHub under the MIT License. You may use, copy, modify, and redistribute it under the terms of that licence, including its "as is" warranty disclaimer. The app itself contains no advertising, no in-app purchases, and no subscription to us: it is free to run.
Transcription is carried out by third-party speech services (currently ElevenLabs, OpenAI, Microsoft, and AssemblyAI, with Deepgram configurable but inactive) that VoxVerbatim connects to using API keys you obtain and enter yourself. We are not a party to your agreement with any of those services. You are responsible for:
Cost estimates shown before a run are calculated from rates you type into the Costs page in Settings yourself. We do not set or know each service's actual prices, and an estimate is only ever as current as what you last entered.
VoxVerbatim reconciles what several services report and flags words it cannot confidently settle, rather than guessing. This reduces, but does not eliminate, the chance of an error, and a transcript may still contain mistakes even where nothing is flagged. Where an amount, name, date, or other value depends on accuracy, treat every transcript as something to be reviewed before you rely on it.
You agree that you will not:
The app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any third-party speech service will be available, accurate, or affordable. You use the app, and each third-party service you connect it to, at your own risk. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any rights you may have as a consumer under the Consumer Protection Act, 2008 or other applicable law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Subverting Complexity will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data or unexpected costs, arising out of or in connection with your use of the app or any third-party speech service it connects to. In particular, we are not liable for charges billed to you by a speech service, or for how that service handles data you send it.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, including the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, 2002, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the South African courts, subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights in your country of residence.
We may revise these Terms from time to time. The current version will always be posted at this URL with an updated date. Continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
