On February 17, 2026, TIGEREYE Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Gaku Kamimura; hereinafter “TIGEREYE”), which offers multimodal AI technology that combines computer vision and generative AI, began offering a free beta version of “SecureEdge LLM & Voice Assist,” an iPhone app equipped with a local LLM (Qwen) and local STT (speech recognition) that performs audio recording, transcription, and summarization entirely in a local environment. Anyone can use it free of charge.
Local LLM (Qwen) × local speech recognition × fully offline
The app can be used in any business situation that requires audio recording, such as meetings, sales conversations, and interviews. It completes transcription with local STT (speech recognition) and summarization with the local LLM “Qwen” within the iPhone. Because it is designed not to communicate with external servers at all, even highly confidential conversations never leave the device, so you can use it with peace of mind.
No telemetry, fully local operation
The app does not collect any usage data (telemetry). Many apps include a “telemetry” feature that sends users’ usage data to external servers for app improvement or marketing purposes. SecureEdge LLM & Voice Assist, however, has no such telemetry feature, and no external communication of any kind occurs from the moment the app starts until it closes.
This provides the following benefits:
- Fully offline use: All features work even without an internet connection
- Complete privacy protection: Recordings, transcriptions, and summaries all stay on the device
- Use in restricted network environments: Can be adopted with confidence even by companies and medical institutions with strict security policies
- Zero communication costs: Uses no mobile data at all, so there are no data charges to worry about
What is Qwen?
Qwen is an open-source large language model (LLM) developed and released by Alibaba Cloud. It excels at multilingual support and is highly accurate in processing Japanese. This app runs Qwen on the iPhone itself to deliver highly accurate text summarization without connecting to the cloud.
