Why “GDPR-compliant AI” is usually a compromise
Most AI tools run on the provider's servers. To use them in line with UK GDPR or EU GDPR, you need a data processing agreement, you have to check sub-processors and server locations, assess international transfers and tell your staff what they may enter. Often the rule at the end is: no personal data. And that removes exactly the work where AI would help most.
Local AI turns this around. If nothing is transferred, there is no processor, no transfer and nothing to redact. The same applies to a GDPR-compliant AI note taker or GDPR-compliant AI transcription.
What local AI does in the office today
A language model that is good enough for writing work runs on an ordinary office PC or laptop. In SpeechToWork it takes care of:
- Tidying up dictations and putting them into shape.
- Shortening, rephrasing and translating selected text.
- Writing email replies from a few key points.
- Checking the tone of a message before you send it.
- Summarising emails and pulling out tasks.
- Reading invoices and screen areas.
- Taking meeting minutes and summarising your day.
Where the limits are
A local model does not replace the largest cloud models. It has less general knowledge and is not suited to research or long creative texts. That is why SpeechToWork uses it for tasks where all the information is already in the text: tidying up, rephrasing, summarising, extracting. For this work it is fast, reliable and, above all, confidential.
Your advantage
Why SpeechToWork fits this job.
Fit for professional secrecy
Content covered by confidentiality duties stays in your firm or practice, because it never leaves the computer.
Fixed price instead of usage
No billing per request. Use the AI as often as you like; the computing happens on your hardware.
Privacy
Local means local. No compromises.
Speech recognition and the language model are installed on your PC and run there. What you dictate ends up in your program and nowhere else. How the data flow works.
No upload
Audio and text stay on your computer. There is no server listening in and no AI provider in the background.
GDPR made simple
No third party processes your dictations. So there is no data processing agreement to sign and no international transfer to assess.
Works without internet
Once installed, SpeechToWork works offline. Only the licence check needs a connection.
Good to know
Frequently asked questions
Is there a GDPR-compliant AI?
Yes. Compliance is simplest with AI that runs locally: if no personal data is transferred to a provider, there is no processor and no international transfer to assess. SpeechToWork works this way. Cloud AI can also be used in a compliant way, but it needs contracts, checks and clear rules on what staff may enter.
Do I have to list SpeechToWork in my records of processing activities?
You list the activities for which you use the tool, such as correspondence or taking minutes. SpeechToWork is a locally installed aid, like your word processor. There is no recipient or processor for the content. If in doubt, check with your data protection officer or whoever handles data protection in your business.
Is my data used for training?
No, and that is not a matter of a setting: SpeechToWork does not transfer your content to anyone. The language model is downloaded as a file during setup and is not changed afterwards. Your dictations, emails and receipts therefore cannot flow into any training, neither ours nor anyone else's.
What data does SpeechToWork transfer at all?
On first start, the model files are downloaded. When you start the trial, the app sends your name, email address and a device ID derived from the hardware to our licence service once. In use, the program checks your licence. No dictations, texts, recordings or receipts are transferred. An optional webhook for call notes is set up only by you.
