Model licences

Spokn is built on openly licensed speech and language models, which run on your Mac. Their licences ask that their notices travel with the app, and they do: in Spokn, open Settings → Ear → Licenses to read them in full. A copy is also inside the app at Spokn.app/Contents/Resources/MODEL-NOTICES.txt.

Speech and sentence models

Spokn uses two speech models (the English ear and the medical ear) and a small sentence model. They are used under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, Apache 2.0 and Health AI Developer Foundations terms, as set out in the in-app notices. None of the models’ authors make or endorse Spokn.

Radiology vocabulary

Spokn includes a dictation-oriented subset of RadLex® 4.3 preferred names and synonyms, obtained via NCBO BioPortal. RadLex is a radiology lexicon produced by the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) and is licensed for commercial and non-commercial use under the RadLex License. RadLex® is a trademark of RSNA.
