Latest stance: rights or controls vary by tier
“Not all future features are guaranteed to be included in the Lifetime Plan. We reserve the right to introduce new features or capabilities as part of a separate paid tier where those additions would materially and disproportionately increase our infrastructure, third-party service, or operational costs in ways that could not reasonably have been anticipated at the time of the Lifetime Plan sale. This carve-out applies only to significant capability additions that fundamentally change our cost structure. It is not our intention to apply it to ordinary feature releases.”Open citation

Latest stance: no training claim
“In On-Device Mode, the Voibe application processes your voice entirely on your device. No audio is transmitted to our servers at any point. Your dictated content never leaves your Mac and we have no access to it. In zero-retention cloud mode (used on Windows, on Intel Macs, and by choice on Apple Silicon Macs), your audio is sent over an encrypted connection to our zero-retention speech providers, transcribed by open-source models, and deleted the moment transcription completes. The resulting text is returned to your device; it is never stored and never used to train AI models. See our Cloud AI privacy page for a full account of how cloud mode works.”Open citation
