• Follow conversations with timestamped speaker sections
• Rename, correct, or merge speaker labels
• Include speaker names when exporting transcripts and subtitles
• Process speaker detection locally on your device

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Core transcription, speaker diarization, transcript chat, and AI processing run locally on your device. SonWeave has no account system, advertising, analytics, or tracking.
Optional iCloud Sync uses your private iCloud account. Content is sent to another app or service only when you explicitly export, share, or use Open in AI.
After the required models are installed, core recording and transcription features can work offline—even without an internet connection.
Some features, languages, and processing modes depend on device capabilities and may require a one-time model download. Processing speed and output quality vary with the device, recording length, selected language, and audio quality.
