    Important Notice

    This is beta software distributed via TestFlight for testing purposes only. By installing and using this beta version of THOHT, you acknowledge that this is pre-release software that may contain bugs, errors, and incomplete features. You agree to use this beta software at your own risk.


    1. Beta Software Disclaimer

    1.1 "As-Is" Provision

    THOHT beta is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without any warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to:

    • Warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose
    • Warranties of accuracy, reliability, or completeness
    • Warranties that the software will be error-free or uninterrupted
    • Warranties regarding data security or privacy

    1.2 Pre-Release Nature

    You acknowledge that:

    • This beta software is not the final product and may differ substantially from the final release
    • Features may be added, removed, modified, or discontinued without notice
    • The software may contain bugs, errors, crashes, or data loss issues
    • Performance and stability are not guaranteed
    • The beta may be discontinued at any time without notice

    2. Audio Recording and Transcription

    2.1 Audio Data Handling

    THOHT records audio from your microphone for the purpose of speech-to-text transcription. You acknowledge that:

    • Audio recording functionality may malfunction or fail
    • Audio quality may vary and affect transcription accuracy
    • Recorded audio is processed using OpenAI's Whisper framework running locally on your device
    • In the free tier: Audio is processed entirely on your device and is never transmitted to external servers
    • In beta Pro features: Transcribed text (not audio) may be sent to third-party AI services for reformatting

    2.2 Transcription Accuracy

    We make no guarantees regarding transcription accuracy. Transcription quality may be affected by:

    • Microphone quality and background noise
    • Speaker accent, pronunciation, or speaking speed
    • Technical limitations of the Whisper model
    • Software bugs or errors in beta releases

    You are solely responsible for reviewing and verifying all transcriptions before use.


    3. Auto-Paste Functionality

    3.1 System-Level Access

    THOHT's auto-paste feature requires macOS Accessibility permissions, which grant the app system-level access to:

    • Simulate keyboard input
    • Monitor active applications
    • Paste text into other applications

    3.2 Auto-Paste Risks

    You acknowledge and accept the following risks:

    • Auto-paste may paste text into unintended applications or fields
    • Sensitive or confidential information may be pasted in visible locations (e.g., shared screens, public chat channels)
    • Auto-paste may fail or malfunction, resulting in data loss or incorrect text insertion
    • System-level permissions could theoretically be exploited if the app contains security vulnerabilities

    We strongly recommend reviewing all transcriptions before allowing auto-paste to execute.

    3.3 No Liability for Auto-Paste Issues

    We are not responsible for any damages, data loss, privacy breaches, or other issues arising from the auto-paste functionality, including but not limited to:

    • Text pasted into incorrect applications or recipients
    • Exposure of sensitive information via auto-paste
    • Data corruption or loss caused by auto-paste malfunctions
    • Unintended actions triggered by pasted text (e.g., commands executed in terminal applications)

    Beta Pro subscription features include AI-powered text reformatting via third-party cloud services:

    • Venice.ai

    4.2 Third-Party Data Transmission

    When you use beta Pro reformatting features, your transcribed text is transmitted to third-party AI providers over the internet. You acknowledge that:

    • We have no control over how these third parties process, store, or handle your data
    • We cannot verify their privacy claims or security practices
    • We are not responsible for data breaches, unauthorized access, or misuse by third parties

    THOHT stores transcription history locally on your device. You acknowledge that:

    • We are not responsible for data loss due to software bugs, crashes, macOS updates, or device failures
