Does Peanut AI require an internet connection for dictation?

AskElephant Team|

Yes. Peanut AI currently requires an active internet connection for dictation and text-to-speech read-back. Audio and text are processed through cloud services during these workflows.

How it works

  • Connect to the internet before starting dictation or read-back sessions
  • Peanut sends audio/text to cloud processing services for transcript and playback generation
  • Continue editing with snippets and dictionary controls after output is returned

Limitations & tradeoffs

  • Core dictation and text-to-speech workflows are not currently available offline
