How data deletion works in Speak AI

Deleting individual files

When you delete a media file, transcript, or text note:

  1. The file enters a 7-day soft delete period

  2. During this period, the file can be recovered if needed

  3. After 7 days, the file is permanently deleted from our servers

To delete a file, open it and select Delete from the actions menu, or select multiple files in a folder and use the bulk delete option.

Deleting your account

To permanently delete your entire account and all associated data:

  1. Click Delete Account

  2. Confirm the deletion

This action is irreversible. All your media files, transcripts, analysis data, and account settings will be permanently removed. We recommend exporting any data you want to keep before deleting.

What gets deleted

  • The original audio/video file

  • The transcript text

  • All AI analysis results (insights, sentiment, keywords)

  • AI Chat conversation history for that file

  • Any clips created from the file

Do you train AI on my data?

No. Speak AI does not use your data to train AI models unless you explicitly instruct us to. Your content remains private and is only processed for the features you use.

Data residency

Speak AI data centers are located in Canada Central and North United States regions. Enterprise customers can request specific data storage locations. For details, see our security overview.
