On-device and cloud transcription
Two ways Gobi can process your audio, and what each means for your data.
Gobi can transcribe your captures in two ways. The difference is where the audio gets processed.
Cloud. Audio is sent to Gobi’s own transcription service, processed there, and returned as text.
On-device. Audio is processed by a model running on your phone. The recording is not sent anywhere for transcription. On-device transcription keeps working in the background and while your phone is asleep.
Both paths run Gobi’s own speech model. No third-party transcription service sees your audio on either one. The on-device version is the same model compressed to run on a phone; the cloud version runs it at full size.
Both produce the same kind of note. Pick based on what the conversation calls for: on-device when the audio shouldn’t leave your phone, cloud when that constraint doesn’t apply.
