Sign in and using WhisperJot offline
Sign-in is required to download WhisperJot and to use the app. After that, it keeps working offline, but it must re-confirm the subscription within 21 days. There is no free trial; a 30-second browser demo is on the site.
Do I have to sign in to use WhisperJot?
Yes. Sign-in is required to download and inside the app. On macOS, the first launch opens a browser sign-in, then setup. Pro is $99/year ($8.25/month billed annually). When available, Local is $5/month for on-device use only. See pricing for current plans, including quarterly and lifetime options when enabled.
There is no free trial. A 30-second browser demo is available on the site. One account covers Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Does WhisperJot work without internet?
The app keeps working offline. It needs to re-confirm the subscription within 21 days. Local engines transcribe without a network after their models are downloaded. The optional Jot Cloud engine is Pro-only and requires internet. It requires opt-in before first use, runs only while selected, and audio is never stored on our servers.
A local LLM for Medium or High cleanup also stays on localhost, so it does not need a public network, but the LLM server itself must be running on your machine.
Straight answers.
Can I use WhisperJot without creating an account?
Sign-in is required to download the app and to use it. There is no free trial. Try the 30-second browser demo on the site if you want a feel for dictation before you subscribe. Pro is $99/year ($8.25/month billed annually). When available, Local is $5/month for on-device use only. See pricing for current plans and offers.
How long can WhisperJot stay offline?
The app keeps working offline and must re-confirm the subscription within 21 days. Connect to the internet before that window ends. Local engines still need their models on disk from an earlier download. The opt-in Jot Cloud engine will not transcribe without internet. Wake word and meetings also use local engines, never Jot Cloud.
Does one login work on my Mac and my Windows PC?
Yes. One account covers Mac, Windows, and Linux. Sign-in is still required on each install. A device cap is not documented. Every WhisperJot subscription includes all three platforms; Linux builds are in beta. After you sign in, offline use still follows the 21-day subscription re-check.
