Private by Design

No account creation. No cloud processing. No telemetry. Both AI models run locally on your Mac's Neural Engine and GPU.

Transcripts and recordings are encrypted with AES-GCM before storage. The only network requests Murmur makes: license verification, software updates, and the one-time model download on first launch (~4 GB).
