3.5.0

June 1, 2026

More ways to transcribe, process, and personalize. VivaDicta 3.5.0 adds AssemblyAI as a new cloud transcription provider, two new AI processing providers (Ollama Cloud and MiniMax), and a Recording Orb picker so the recording screen looks the way you like. Plus performance and polish.

AssemblyAI Transcription

  • New cloud transcription provider with high accuracy, speaker labels, and broad language support
  • New accounts get $50 in free credits, no credit card required
  • Add your AssemblyAI API key in Settings → AI Settings → Transcription to try it

Ollama Cloud

  • Run Ollama's hosted AI models without running your own server - just add an API key from ollama.com
  • Separate from the existing local Ollama option, and the model list refreshes automatically once your key is added

MiniMax AI

  • New AI processing provider for cleaning up and rewriting your transcriptions
  • Add your MiniMax API key in Settings and choose any of its M-series models

Recording Orb

  • Pick the visualization shown while you record: Particles, ASCII, or None
  • A lighter, smoother orb that won't bog down on busy devices

Quality of Life

  • The app version and build now show at the bottom of Settings
  • Performance improvements and a round of polish across the app
