SpeechBee terms

These terms describe SpeechBee purchases, access, and platform availability.

Effective August 9, 2026

Product access

SpeechBee provides local dictation on supported Apple devices after an approved speech model downloads. It does not promise cloud transcription, uninterrupted background execution, or equal model accuracy for every language, accent, device, or environment.

Optional Apple cleanup

Optional Apple Foundation Models cleanup is off by default and available only when the operating system reports its on-device model and current language ready. It can change wording, may be unavailable or canceled, and is subject to conservative validation. SpeechBee falls back to deterministic cleanup after ordinary unavailability or rejected output and never falls back to cloud. Raw and deterministic versions are available only through the bounded current-result and keyboard-revert controls described in the app.

Plans and devices

The approved US offer is $9 monthly, $59 annually, or $99 for lifetime access. The same product features are intended for each payment option, subject to model and hardware qualification. Active App Store subscriptions work across all of a user's devices where SpeechBee is available. Direct and non-subscription account access supports up to five active personal devices. Family Sharing is not included at launch.

Lifetime means continuing ownership of the purchased SpeechBee access, not a promise that every current operating system, device, model host, or third-party service will remain available forever. New-device activation and periodic device validation require a connection.

Apple purchases

Eligible monthly and annual App Store subscriptions include a 14-day Apple introductory trial. Apple confirms eligibility and the exact renewal date at purchase. Cancellation retains access through the verified paid period. Billing, cancellation, and refund requests for App Store purchases are handled under Apple's terms.

Direct purchases

The $99 lifetime purchase charges immediately, does not include a trial, and includes a 30-day guarantee. The guarantee applies to the initial lifetime purchase and does not apply to subscription renewals. Seller, tax, support, refund, and checkout details shown at purchase also apply.

Account and availability

Cross-platform access uses Sign in with Apple and signed device entitlements. Verified expiry, refund, revocation, or device deactivation can lock paid voice features. Settings, local data, export, model management, and a bounded in-app demonstration remain available.

SpeechBee may suspend service to protect accounts, comply with law, or address security and provider failures. Local data is preserved when paid access expires.

Additional terms

Seller identity, governing-law language, tax disclosures, and regional store terms are shown at purchase where applicable. If checkout terms conflict with this page, purchase must remain unavailable until the published terms are corrected.
