What is Cinct?
Cinct (cinct.ai) is a web application that converts video and audio content into AI-generated notes, summaries, and transcripts.
Data we collect
- Account information: name, email address, and profile image from your OAuth provider (Google).
- Video/audio URLs: URLs you submit for processing.
- Uploaded files: audio and video files you upload for transcription.
- Generated notes: the AI-generated content, if you choose to save it.
- Usage data: IP address (for rate limiting), credit balance, and processing metadata.
- Payment information: handled entirely by Stripe. We store only your Stripe customer ID, not card details.
How we process your data
- Video transcripts are generated using Deepgram (speech-to-text) or fetched from existing captions.
- Transcripts are sent to the Anthropic Claude API to generate notes.
- Uploaded files are deleted immediately after transcription. They are not retained.
- You choose whether notes are saved to your account or downloaded only (nothing stored).
Data retention
- Saved notes are automatically deleted after 90 days.
