Question 1

How does Telvr work?

Accepted Answer

Press a hotkey anywhere on your system, speak naturally, and Telvr transcribes your voice in real-time using Whisper. The finished text is automatically inserted at your cursor position — no copy-paste, no app switching.

Question 2

Which languages are supported?

Accepted Answer

Telvr supports 50+ languages via OpenAI's Whisper large-v3 model. Language detection is automatic — just speak in your preferred language and Telvr handles the rest.

Question 3

Do I need a subscription?

Accepted Answer

No. Telvr uses a prepaid model with tiered pricing: from EUR 0.003 per minute at high usage, up to EUR 0.03 per minute when starting out. EUR 3 monthly minimum — your usage counts toward it. No lock-in, no auto-renewal. You top up your balance and use it at your own pace.

Question 4

Does Telvr work offline?

Accepted Answer

Currently, Telvr requires an internet connection for cloud-based transcription via Groq. A Community Edition with local processing using your own API key is planned for the future.

Question 5

Which apps are supported?

Accepted Answer

Telvr works system-wide — it inserts text at the cursor position in any application. Email clients, chat apps, code editors, browsers, word processors — if you can type in it, Telvr works there.

Question 6

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

All data is transmitted via TLS encryption. Audio recordings are not permanently stored after transcription. Groq processes your audio under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA). We do not sell or share your data.
