      Reasoning model only when safe

      You can switch to Claude or OpenAI for non-PHI work (research summaries, journal-club notes) and Privacy Mode in Settings blocks the option for clinical work.

          Dictionary, snippets, multilingual, all local.

          Personal dictionary

          Add your team's vocabulary once. Penwright gets it right every time after that, codenames, last names, library names, internal acronyms.

          Voice snippets

          Trigger a saved block of text by saying a phrase. The expanded version comes out polished, and the variables stay yours to fill.

          'sig' → 'Best, Daniel, Penwright founder'

          Privacy

          Privacy by architecture, not by policy.

          Penwright does not need your spoken content to provide the product. Audio, transcripts and local indexes stay on your Mac, and you can verify the network traffic yourself.

          Content stays on your Mac

          Dictation, transcripts, meeting audio and local indexes are processed and stored on your machine.

          Data minimisation by default

          Penwright's servers handle accounts, licences and billing, not the audio or transcripts you create on your Mac.

          Included at launch

          No audio or text upload endpoint

          The Penwright API has no route for your dictation audio or transcripts. A server cannot leak content it never receives.

          Included at launch

          Verify every claim

          Use any network monitor you trust. The security page documents the traffic you should, and should not, see.

            Referral letters at end of clinic
