Licence and purchase terms
Version 2026-10-28
Buy once and keep using what you bought, forever. No subscription and no ZenVoice account. These terms say exactly what each plan includes.
Pro and Lifetime
Pro, $19 once. One person, on up to two Macs that belong to or are assigned to them, for personal or internal business use:
- Every model and language in the app, running on your Mac. Some models need more capable hardware.
- One year of new features and new models, counted from the day you buy. Anything released in that year stays yours, even if you download it later.
- Bug fixes, UI fixes and macOS compatibility updates forever, even after that year.
- Upgrade to Lifetime at any time for $40. It changes your existing key; it doesn’t add Macs.
Lifetime, $59 once. Everything in Pro, plus every new feature and new model we ever release.
Launch prices apply to the first 100 personal licences. After that, Pro is $49 and Lifetime is $149. The price you paid never changes what you bought.
Updates come at no extra charge. They don’t promise any particular future feature or release date, or that every future model will run on every older Mac.
Teams
For 5 or more Macs. You get one licence key per Mac, each with Pro’s rights: permanent use, a year of new features and models, and fixes forever. You hand the keys out.
- 5–9 Macs: $39 per Mac.
- 10–24 Macs: $34 per Mac.
- 25–100 Macs: $29 per Mac.
- More than 100 Macs: email us for a quote.
The price for your number of Macs applies to every Mac in that order. Separate orders are priced separately. A key can move to another Mac once it’s deactivated on the old one; moving it doesn’t restart its year of updates.
Students and educators
Students at a school, college or university, and the teachers, lecturers and staff who work there, can request 50% off either personal plan for their own use. The discount applies to the price on the day of purchase, including launch prices.
Email hello@getzenvoice.com from your school or university email and tell us where you study or teach. If you do not have a school email, send a photo of your student or staff card, covering anything you would rather not share. A person reviews the request and replies with a one-use code.
The licence includes every feature and the same 30-day refund window. Team licences and Pro-to-Lifetime upgrades are full price. Education offer details.
Trial, activation and recovery
- The 14-day trial starts when you choose to start it. It needs no account and no card.
- When the trial ends, dictation pauses until you activate a licence. Your history, settings and downloaded models stay on your Mac.
- Activating needs the internet once. After that ZenVoice works offline. While a licence is active and you’re online, it quietly checks the licence about once a week; if it can’t reach us, nothing changes. Activation sends your licence key and a random key made for your Mac, never audio or text.
- Deactivate a Mac in ZenVoice → License to free its slot for another.
- Lost your key? getzenvoice.com/manage sends a sign-in link to your purchase email and lists every licence and receipt.
Payment
Dodo Payments sells ZenVoice for us as the merchant of record. They handle checkout, tax, invoices and emailing your licence key. All prices are in US dollars, including purchases from India. Applicable taxes are shown at checkout before you pay. Your bank or payment provider may apply its own currency conversion or fees.
Refunds are available for 30 days after purchase, no questions asked; see the refund policy. A refunded purchase ends the licence it paid for. For a refund or any billing question, email hello@getzenvoice.com. Your rights under consumer law always apply.
Creator rewards
If you buy Pro or Lifetime and post a clip of ZenVoice in use, we pay you back part or all of what you paid for that licence. This is a reward, paid separately from your purchase; it isn’t a refund and doesn’t end your licence.
- 50% of the price you paid, before tax, once the clip has 10,000 views. Payments at each milestone add up to no more than 100%.
- 100% of the price you paid, before tax, once the clip has 50,000 views. Payments at each milestone add up to no more than 100%.
- The clip must be your own, at least 30 seconds long, show ZenVoice really running, name it, and be posted publicly on X, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or LinkedIn within 60 days of your purchase.
- Views are the public count the platform shows, within 90 days of posting. Only one clip per licence counts, and bought or automated views don’t.
- Claim by emailing hello@getzenvoice.com with the link and your order number. We pay by PayPal, Wise or UPI in India within 14 days of confirming the claim, and only once the 30-day refund window on your purchase has closed; a claim made before then is paid when it closes.
- One reward per licence; Teams licences aren’t included. A refunded purchase can’t earn a reward, and once a reward is paid the purchase can no longer be refunded.
- We may end the offer for new purchases at any time. Clips posted before then still count under these terms.
Software licence
ZENVOICE PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE LICENSE Copyright (c) 2026 Yash Chaudhary. All rights reserved. 1. Ownership and scope ZenVoice's first-party source code, application, documentation, and original assets are proprietary to Yash Chaudhary (the "Licensor"). This license governs versions distributed with this license. The Software is licensed, not sold. No ownership of the Software, source code, trademarks, or other intellectual property transfers to a customer. Rights not expressly granted are reserved. 2. Authorized use A customer who obtains an authorized copy may evaluate ZenVoice for 14 days from the start of the trial. Continued use after that trial requires a valid paid license. A valid paid license grants a non-exclusive right to use the application for personal or internal business purposes according to the plan, seat count, and device allowance purchased. The plan entitlements are stated in the ZenVoice purchase terms (getzenvoice.com/terms), which form part of this license. The terms provided at purchase govern that purchase; later revisions do not reduce already purchased perpetual-use or update entitlements. Paid use is perpetual, subject to compliance with these terms and applicable law. Pro's new-feature and new-model update period is separate from the right to continue using previously entitled functionality. Its expiration does not terminate the paid license. A completed refund of a license ends the corresponding paid grant, subject to applicable consumer rights. 3. Source access and restrictions Possession of, or access to, the private repository does not grant permission to use, copy, modify, disclose, publish, sublicense, sell, or redistribute the source code or other proprietary materials. Authorized collaborators may do so only to the extent separately permitted in writing by the Licensor. Customers may install and make reasonable backup copies of their authorized application, but may not redistribute, resell, rent, sublicense, publicly host, or share license keys outside their purchased seat allowance. Customers may not circumvent license or activation controls, or reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble proprietary portions of the Software, except where applicable law permits those activities notwithstanding this restriction. Team licenses may be assigned and reassigned internally as described in the commercial terms; reassignment does not permit simultaneous use by additional people. Other transfers require the Licensor's written permission, except where applicable law provides otherwise. 4. Customer data Customers retain their rights in their recordings, transcripts, and other content. This license does not transfer ownership of that content to the Licensor. Data handling is described separately in the applicable privacy notice; a software license is not consent to upload customer content. 5. Third-party materials and earlier versions Third-party software, models, datasets, and other materials remain governed by their respective licenses and notices, including THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md and notices distributed with those materials. This license neither replaces those licenses nor restricts rights they independently grant. Versions previously distributed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 remain subject to that license. This change does not revoke, narrow, or retroactively replace rights already granted under Apache-2.0. Making a repository private does not revoke rights in previously received copies. 6. Warranty and liability To the extent permitted by applicable law, and without limiting express purchase commitments or non-waivable consumer rights, the Software is provided "AS IS" without implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Licensor is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising from use of the Software. Nothing in this license excludes or limits liability or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. 7. Material breach and mandatory rights A material breach of these terms may result in termination of the affected license after notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy a curable breach, as required by applicable law. Termination does not transfer ownership of customer content or authorize its deletion. Mandatory statutory rights take precedence over conflicting terms. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law. For permissions outside this license, obtain written authorization from Yash Chaudhary before using or distributing the proprietary materials.
