Your work stays on your machine. Voice has a switch.

What stays local

Agent sessions, terminal output, project files, and canvas state stay on your computer. Agent Deck does not proxy your agent sessions through our servers. The agent CLIs you run may contact their own providers under your accounts and their privacy terms.

Voice, by default

When a Groq API key is configured and voice mode is set to automatic, microphone audio is sent to Groq for speech recognition using whisper-large-v3. Voice requests that fall outside the local command grammar may also send the resulting text to Groq's llama-3.1-8b-instant chat model.

Local partial speech decodes always stay on your machine. They are never sent to Groq.

Force speech recognition fully local

Choose local voice mode in Agent Deck. Under the hood, POST /api/voice/mode with {"mode":"local"} makes the cloud speech-recognition branch unreachable. Final and partial recognition then run through the local Parakeet model, so microphone audio does not leave your computer.

The local speech models are an optional 989 MB download.

Analytics and telemetry

There is no product analytics, crash reporter, or telemetry in Agent Deck. The app does not silently send us usage data or crash reports.
