Can't confirm but based on their site, I suspect that the code is OSS, but the model isn't. And that license to get the model from them is what you're getting. Not sure how they enforce or deal with the number of hours transcribed though because they say they don't collect data and the whole thing happens on device.

It would be great to have industry-recognized, concise terms for this kind of situation ("project is (FL)OSS, but contains proprietary machine learning").
For deployment of services we have "self-hosted", "cloud" and "on-prem", for example.
For ML-based projects could we have something like "teachable" (as in you can "raise" the model the way you would like to) vs "pre-directed"?
(it's been a long day; these probably aren't the neatest suggestions)
