When to stay with superwhisper

Documented strengths from our superwhisper review — switching isn't always the right call:

• ＋ Local processing on Apple Silicon means dictation works fully offline with no audio sent to a server
• ＋ One-time $249.99 lifetime license avoids an ongoing subscription entirely, unlike most AI dictation tools
• ＋ Free tier is usable on its own for basic dictation, not just a time-limited trial
