Premium Overlay
Anti-aliased waveform, timer, and controls — always on top while recording.

Security
Privacy first
Your data stays yours. Always.
Works offline
Transcribe locally with built-in Whisper models — your audio never leaves your device. No internet required.
API key stays local
Stored only in your user profile directory, never transmitted.
Direct API connection
Audio is sent directly from your device to OpenAI's Whisper API — WhisPaste never stores or processes your recordings. See OpenAI's privacy policy for their data handling.
Secure updates
SHA256 checksums verified before applying. HTTPS only.
No telemetry
Zero analytics, tracking, or phone-home. Fully open source.
