Voice capture
- Desktop voice capture
- A focused dictation interaction rather than a general voice assistant
The problem
What Tract exists to change.
The situation this product exists to change, in the buyer's language.
Voice-to-text tools often send audio to a cloud service, which is a poor fit for anyone dictating private or sensitive material.
General-purpose voice assistants are built for broad commands, not for a focused, accurate dictation workflow.
A desktop dictation workflow benefits from transcription that happens on the device itself rather than depending on a network round-trip.
Approach
How Tract approaches it.
The direction the product takes to close that gap.
Tract is a desktop application built around an on-device transcription workflow, so voice capture and transcription happen locally rather than depending on a cloud service for that step.
The product is scoped narrowly around voice capture and transcription, rather than trying to be a general-purpose assistant.
Tract is in private beta, so the workflow is still being refined with a limited group of users before any wider availability.

- Early users willing to work with a private-beta product whose behavior is still being refined.
What changes
- Dictation that happens on-device as part of the transcription workflow, rather than depending on a cloud service for that step.
- A focused voice-to-text interaction rather than a general-purpose assistant to learn.
- Early feedback from private-beta use shapes the desktop experience before any wider release.
Built on
- Desktop application for voice capture
- On-device transcription workflow
- Local, privacy-conscious processing designed around dictation
What to know before you buy
- Tract is in private beta: it is not generally available, and access is currently limited.
- Behavior, features, and the on-device workflow may change as the product is refined during the beta period.
- Because the product is still being developed, this description reflects current direction rather than a fixed, finished feature set.
- Availability, timelines, and any move to a wider release are not fixed and are not committed to here.
Questions
What buyers usually ask.
A first conversation can clarify fit, access, and what a quotation needs to cover.
No. Tract is currently in private beta, so it is not generally available and access is limited while the product is refined.
Tract's transcription step is designed around an on-device workflow, which is different from voice tools that route audio to a cloud service for that step.
Access during the private beta is limited. Current status is best confirmed directly through the Tract website (https://tract.nexg.dev) or by contacting NexG.
Yes. Behavior and the on-device workflow may change while the product is being refined, so the private-beta experience should not be treated as a finished, fixed feature set.
