Vocal Slice FAQ
Isn't the transcription just Whisper, which is free?
The models are OpenAI's, MIT-licensed, and anyone can run them. What you're paying for is everything between a transcript and a delivered file: correcting word timings that arrive late, coupling the transcript and waveform so each drives the other, filename templating, and byte-level slicing that cuts from the source rather than re-encoding it. source (opens in a new tab)
Does it work without an internet connection?
Transcribing never needs internet. You need a connection twice: once to download a transcription model, and once to activate your license. After that it runs with the network off, which is ideal for planes or studios with no guest wifi. source (opens in a new tab)
