- Worth noticing
- Its Windows installer is not yet signed; the page explains the “Windows protected your PC” prompt and how to proceed.
Field notes
The page lists macOS 13 or later and Windows 10 or later, including Apple silicon, Intel, and ARM machines. It describes a bring-your-own-key setup for Groq, other OpenAI-compatible providers, or a local Whisper server, and says the key stays encrypted on the user's machine. A note explains that the Windows installer is unsigned and walks through the resulting security prompt.
