Terms of Use
Terms version 4 · Last updated October 28, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of VoiceCatcher (the “Software”), licensed by Ngentix, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our”). By checking the box and clicking “I Agree,” you accept these Terms (version 4). If you do not agree, do not use the Software.
Please read Section 12. It requires disputes to be resolved by binding individual arbitration, not in court; waives jury trials and class actions; and gives you one year to bring a claim. You can opt out of arbitration within 30 days.
1. Local & Private
Audio capture, transcription, and storage happen on your device. We do not run your audio or transcripts through our servers and do not have access to them. See our Privacy Policy for details. Builds marked “Beta” are pre-release and may be less reliable.
2. Not a System of Record
VoiceCatcher is a convenience tool and is not a system of record. You are solely responsible for verifying every transcript, summary, title and label before relying on it and for keeping your own backups of anything you need to retain. Do not use the Software as the sole or authoritative store for information you cannot afford to lose or that has legal, medical, financial, or compliance significance. We make a good-faith effort to avoid data loss but do not guarantee that any recording, transcript, screenshot, screen recording, or setting will be captured, completed, retained, or recoverable.
3. Accuracy Is Your Responsibility
Automatic speech recognition is inherently imperfect. Transcripts may contain errors, omissions, invented words, or text given to the wrong speaker. You alone are responsible for reviewing and correcting every transcript before you use, send, paste, or rely on it.
4. Generated Content and Automatic Actions
Titles, summaries, key points, decisions and action items (Apple’s on-device model), speaker labels (“Me”, “Them”, “Speaker 1”), word fixes, formatting, capture names and meeting detection may be wrong, incomplete or missing. None of it is advice of any kind. When automatic paste is on, text goes into whichever app and field is active: you are responsible for where it lands and for checking it before it is sent or saved.
5. Recording Others & Your Responsibilities
VoiceCatcher records only when you ask it to. Where you capture other people, it’s your responsibility to get their consent — recording and wiretapping laws vary by place, and some require everyone being recorded to agree. You are also responsible for how you use the Software and its output, and for complying with all laws applicable to your use, including any professional or regulatory rules.
Recording meetings. When you record while another app is on a call (or choose Record Meeting), VoiceCatcher records the audio playing on your Mac, which includes the other people, mixed with your microphone, and keeps it only on your Mac. You alone are responsible for telling everyone in the meeting that you’re recording or transcribing it, and for any consent the law requires where you and they are. VoiceCatcher doesn’t announce it, doesn’t join the meeting, and can’t get consent for you.

6. Provided “As Is” — No Warranty
THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ITS OUTPUT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT IT WILL START, CONTINUE OR FINISH ANY RECORDING, OR CAPTURE, TRANSCRIBE, LABEL, SUMMARIZE, PASTE, OR PRESERVE ANYTHING CORRECTLY OR AT ALL. YOU USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
7. Release
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release Ngentix, Inc. and its people from all claims, known or unknown, arising from inaccurate, incomplete or missing transcripts or other output; recordings or captures that fail, stop early, are cut off, silent, poor quality, lost, deleted or corrupted (including audio removed by the retention setting you choose); text pasted in the wrong place or not pasted; meetings detected or not; speaker labels; updates and model downloads; and your recording of others. California residents waive Civil Code §1542 (a general release covering claims not known at the time), and you waive any similar law elsewhere.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, LOST OR FAILED RECORDINGS, POOR RECORDING OR TRANSCRIPTION QUALITY, OUTPUT ERRORS, MISDIRECTED PASTES, OR LOST PROFITS, UNDER ANY THEORY INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO WHAT YOU PAID US FOR THE SOFTWARE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR USD $10 IF YOU PAID NOTHING. YOUR ONLY REMEDY IF YOU’RE UNHAPPY WITH IT IS TO STOP USING IT.
9. Indemnification
You agree to defend and indemnify us against claims and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Software or its output, your recording of others, or your breaking these Terms or any law.
10. Updates and Changes
Every 1.x update is included with your license at no extra charge, and your license to the version you bought does not expire. If we ever release a 2.0, it is optional: your 1.x copy keeps its license, and existing license holders will be offered an upgrade price. This is not a promise to keep releasing updates or fixes. We may update the Software and revise these Terms. When we make a material change, we will present the updated Terms and require your acceptance before continued use.
11. Governing Law
Washington law and applicable U.S. federal law govern these Terms. Subject to Section 12, the state and federal courts in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction.
12. Disputes: Arbitration, No Class Actions, No Jury
Before any claim, email voicecatcher@ngentix.ai and try in good faith for 60 days to resolve it. Otherwise, any dispute about the Software or these Terms is resolved by final, binding arbitration on an individual basis (American Arbitration Association, Consumer Arbitration Rules; Federal Arbitration Act), except individual small-claims cases and court orders to stop misuse of intellectual property. Claims may be brought only individually, never in a class, collective or representative action, and you and we waive any jury trial. Any claim must be filed within one year after it arose. You can opt out of arbitration by emailing voicecatcher@ngentix.ai with “Arbitration opt-out” and your name within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.
13. Your Statutory Rights
If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, it applies as far as the law allows and the rest stands. Nothing here limits rights the law doesn’t allow to be waived (where applicable, liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or death or personal injury caused by negligence).
