Audiscript vs StripPii

Audiscript turns speech into text entirely on your iPhone. No internet, no account, no subscription — your recordings never leave your device. Most transcription apps upload your audio to a server. Audiscript does not. The AI model runs on your device's Neural Engine, so transcription works on a plane, in a basement, or with Airplane Mode switched on. Nobody — including us — can ever hear your recordings. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Record and transcribe in 32 languages, fully offline • See who said what with automatic speaker labels (Pro) • Search every word across all your recordings and jump straight to the moment it was said • Tap any line to fix a name or a typo • Organise recordings into colour-coded folders • Export to TXT, SRT and VTT — free for everyone • Export to Markdown and PDF (Pro) BUILT ON WHISPER, RUNNING ON APPLE SILICON Audiscript uses OpenAI's Whisper models converted to Core ML. A model ships inside the app, so transcription works from the very first launch — no download, no setup, no waiting. Want more accuracy? Download a larger model, up to next-generation Large V3 Turbo (Pro). SUBTITLES IN ONE TAP Every transcript carries timestamps, so SRT and WebVTT export is always one tap away — ready for YouTube, Premiere, Final Cut or any editor. Free, no watermark, no export limit. PRIVACY, NOT AS A FEATURE — AS THE ARCHITECTURE • No account, no sign-up, no email address • Your audio is never uploaded, because there is no server to upload it to • Everything works in Airplane Mode FREE • Unlimited recordings, up to 1 minute each • Base and Small AI models • TXT, SRT and VTT export • Supported by ads AUDISCRIPT PRO — ONE-TIME PURCHASE • Record up to 2 hours • Every AI model, including Large V3 Turbo • Automatic speaker identification • Markdown and PDF export • No ads No subscription. Pay once, keep it forever. GOOD TO KNOW Audiscript records audio inside the app. It does not import existing audio or video files. The app interface is in English.

Redaction that actually removes the words. Most tools draw a black box over text that is still in the file. Copy and paste from the "redacted" PDF and the name is right there. StripPii removes the text itself - what comes out has nothing underneath the black. Nothing leaves your device. Ever. StripPii makes no network requests at all. It holds no network permission. There are no servers, no accounts, no analytics, no crash reporting. Your bank statements, medical letters and passport scans are read on your device and stay there - not as a policy, but because the app is technically incapable of doing otherwise. Finds what matters, in any language. Names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, dates of birth, passport and licence numbers, national IDs, card and account numbers, medical record numbers - and faces in photos, covered automatically. An on-device machine-learning model reads names and addresses that have no fixed shape to match, in any of the languages it was trained on. Exact patterns handle the things that do - the ones with checksums, like an IBAN or a National Insurance number. Each catches what the other cannot. On devices with Apple Intelligence, an extra on-device pass runs alongside. Also local. Also free. Detection is the same whether you pay or not. Every PII type. The AI. The lot. We are not going to find less of your personal data because you have not paid us. You decide before anything is redacted. Review every detection, with a label saying how it was found. Deselect anything that shouldn't go. Black out anything the app missed by hand. StripPii remembers what you confirmed, so the next document is faster.
