Lumen Trust Notes

DeepL

Translations are processed on DeepL's infrastructure; Pro plans emphasise that texts are not used to train models—still cloud-based, so Privacy is Low for free/default use and Medium-leaning only with Pro contractual assurances (scored Low for consistency with cloud-only rules). Strong free tier supports High parity. Purpose is High for accurate cross-language communication. Provenance Low. Prefer Pro for confidential documents and review DeepL's enterprise DPA.

Wispr Flow

Wispr Flow processes speech in the cloud rather than fully on-device, so data sovereignty is limited unless Privacy Mode is on and cloud sync is disabled. Enterprise customers get stronger guarantees (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, enforced Privacy Mode, SSO). The free tier and broad device support improve access, but unlimited dictation requires a paid plan. Suitable for everyday writing and coding workflows; treat sensitive dictation like any cloud voice service and enable Privacy Mode for confidential content.
