Verdict	The clearest anti-subscription statement here, and a solid tool. Compare it against Handy before paying.	Still the one to beat on output quality. If your work is not privacy-sensitive and you dictate every day, the subscription pays for itself; if it is, start with a local-first challenger instead.
Pros	Source available under AGPL — auditable end to end One-time binary price for people who do not want to compile No cloud dependency of any kind	The cleanest raw-speech-to-finished-text output of anything tested Works in every app, including terminals and browser text boxes Learns your names, jargon and formatting habits over time
Cons	$69 is steep next to fully free MIT rivals Fewer conveniences than the paid commercial tier Windows build trails the Mac one	No offline mode at all — every word goes to their servers $15/mo is the most expensive of the consumer tier Free tier's 2,000 words a week runs out fast for real writing
