Spectro is a macOS application designed to detect fake lossless audio files on a user's device. The tool enables users to scan audio formats such as WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MP3, and AAC to identify tracks that may be compressed but are presented as lossless. Spectro is built with DJs in mind, addressing the need for reliable verification of audio file authenticity.
A key aspect of Spectro is its privacy-focused architecture. All audio analysis is performed entirely on the user's device, ensuring that audio files, their contents, metadata, file names, and library structure never leave the machine. During license activation, only the license key is transmitted via Lemon Squeezy's API for validation; no audio data is shared. The website uses Vercel Analytics, which operates without cookies and does not store personal data. Within the app, anonymous, non-personal error and crash signals are collected through TelemetryDeck to help improve stability, but these signals are cryptographically anonymized and cannot be linked to individuals. No information about file names, formats, audio metadata, or library content is ever transmitted.
Spectro handles payments and license delivery through Lemon Squeezy, collecting only the user's email address for this purpose. Payment information is processed by Lemon Squeezy and is not accessible to Spectro. The app's privacy policy highlights its commitment to user privacy and transparency in data handling.
This tool is positioned as a fake lossless detector for macOS, with a particular focus on serving DJs who require trustworthy audio verification.
