About Hive Trust
A signature authenticates a record when its signer is trusted. It does not establish that the benchmark was fair, reproducible or independently reviewed. Signature and benchmark validity are not checked by these counters. These previously published corpus figures are retained as publisher reports, not accepted performance evidence. Their source is the June 3, 2026 website update, not an identified signed run artifact. Baseline revision, hardware, configuration, sample counts, uncertainty, retries and full compute costs are unknown.
About Trace
A macOS menu-bar app that turns any conversation into a clean markdown transcript, with an optional on-device summary. Runs a local speech model entirely on your Mac, in dozens of languages. The moment is pinned to your transcript at the exact timestamp. Trace provides you with clear markdown transcripts and summaries that you can use anywhere. Either copy the markdown from Trace directly or have it place the file anywhere in your filesystem. Trace can also send files directly to Obsidian, Bear, Drafts or Things with a button press.
