The on-device guarantee

Private by design.

Local processing

Speech recognition and transcription happen on your hardware. Audio is never uploaded, tracked, or sent to external servers.

No cloud copy

Recordings are not stored in the cloud, and your voice is not used to train AI models. Arca does not require an account, email, or sign-up.

Encrypted on the device

Transcripts and recordings remain on the device with on-device encryption. Clinical notes are stored in an encrypted local database (Hive) using hardware-backed security (iOS Keychain and Android Keystore).

  • Works with no Wi-Fi or cellular connection, including real-time dictation.
  • Import MP3, M4A, WAV, and voice-recorder files, or video from the device.
  • Export a transcript as PDF or TXT, or copy the text.
  • English and Turkish.
  • Built with Flutter for iOS and Android.
  • Arca Plus subscriptions provide unlimited transcription for the duration of the billing cycle. They renew unless canceled through your App Store or Google Play account settings. Restore Purchases can bring back a remaining credit balance and an active subscription on another device.
