Account and online services
Core Screph workflows run locally. Only features explicitly identified as online require an account and a network connection.
Local and network operations
In interactive mode, the Documentation tab opens the website’s full help catalog and training examples. This requires a network connection. Offline, the contents page and five core guides are available in three languages. You can update this saved set online; if an update fails, the previous help remains available.
| Operation | Need an account | Transmitted data |
|---|---|---|
| Capture, Selector, projects and local computer vision | No | The project and local sources remain on the computer. |
| Connecting a desktop program | Yes | Device verification code and account session data. The password is not sent to the application. |
| Support | Guest chat or account chat | Sent text, selected attachments and data required to continue the conversation. |
| Screph server speech recognition | Yes | Selected audio file and recognition parameters. |
| External LLM and speech services | Depends on service | The selected text, audio, image or context is transferred to the specified provider. |
| Model updates and downloads | No | Normal technical data of a network request. The project and frames are not sent. |
What does the account provide?
Feedback is available in guest and account chats. Disconnecting the account does not erase previously sent messages or reports from the server. Local drafts are stored separately from sent conversations.
- Profile and connection of a desktop program without transferring a password to the application.
- Personal dialogue with support and sending selected attachments.
- Server operations within the available balance and a view of the remaining balance.
- Diagnostics can also be sent without an account; when an account is connected, the report may be associated with it.
Connecting the program to your account
- Screph shows the shortcode and opens a confirmation page in the browser.
- Sign in on the website and check the code, application and requested access.
- After confirmation, the program receives a limited session for the listed functions. The account password remains on the site.
Server speech recognition
With Screph server speech recognition selected, audio is sent to the Screph service and then to the configured provider. This requires sign-in and an available balance. If the service is unavailable, an error is shown.
Local Vosk and connections using your own keys are described in LLM and speech recognition.
Purchase not available
The website does not yet have published rates or a working purchase process.
Before sending data
Even when sent as a guest, text, images, code, and diagnostic logs may reveal your username, paths, service addresses, and project details. Attach only materials you agree to share.
In chat, select objects or attach a window region or selected code. Selection creates a local draft and does not send a message by itself. Review links and attachments; removing an object link excludes its data from this submission. A snapshot reflects the time of selection: refresh it before sending if you need current data.
- Check the selected provider and the composition of the text, audio, image or context.
- Before submitting diagnostics, review the list of included files; logs may contain paths and project names.
- Do not insert API keys, passwords, or other secrets into support messages.
