Transcription that never leaves your network.
Audio of a client meeting, a patient consultation, or a closed briefing is among the most sensitive material an organisation holds. Cloud transcription services send that audio to someone else's servers. Electric Azimuth transcribes it on yours.
The problem
Convenience and confidentiality pull in opposite directions.
Most transcription tools are cloud services. The recording uploads, a remote model processes it, and the transcript returns. Useful — and, for regulated work, often unusable. The audio has now travelled to a third party, frequently outside the UK, and the recording sits on infrastructure you do not control.
For a law firm that breaches privilege. For an NHS trust it puts special category data in the hands of an external processor. For a government department it can place classified material outside an accredited boundary. The work still needs doing; the usual tools simply cannot do it safely.
Our solution
The model comes to your data, not the other way round.
Electric Azimuth installs a transcription engine inside your network. Recordings are processed on your hardware and the transcript is written back to your storage. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is retained by us, and no external service sees the audio. The compliance argument becomes simple, because there is no third party to account for.
Key features
On-premise speech-to-text
Audio is transcribed on your hardware. No file, no fragment, and no metadata leaves the network.
Speaker separation
Each voice is labelled, so a meeting, hearing, or consultation reads as a clean record.
Domain vocabulary
The model learns your terminology — case names, drug names, product codes — and stops mishearing them.
Searchable output
Transcripts are timestamped and searchable, with the source audio held under your retention rules.
Audit trail
Every transcription is logged: who ran it, when, and against which file. The log stays with you.
Works offline
No internet connection is required at any point. The system runs inside an air-gapped network.
Use cases
Where it earns its place.
Transcribe client conferences, witness interviews, and internal matter reviews without sending privileged audio to a cloud processor.
Turn clinical dictation and multidisciplinary meetings into notes on your own servers, with patient audio never leaving the trust.
Record and transcribe advice meetings and committee sessions while keeping material non-public information inside the firm.
Produce verbatim records of briefings and interviews within networks that have no outbound connectivity at all.
Technical overview
Specifics for the people who will run it.
- Deployment
- Single GPU server for pilots; rack-mounted cluster for production volume.
- Audio formats
- WAV, MP3, M4A, FLAC, and most common meeting-recorder outputs.
- Throughput
- Faster-than-real-time on a single modern GPU; scales linearly with hardware.
- Integration
- Folder watch, REST endpoint on the internal network, or manual upload — your choice.
- Languages
- English as standard; additional languages scoped per engagement.
- Connectivity
- None required. The service runs with the network boundary fully closed.
