Why OraKara Is Free, and What "Offline" Actually Covers

OraKara doesn't have a paid tier hiding somewhere behind the free one. There's no license to buy, no trial that expires, no subscription to lapse. That's a direct consequence of what the app is built on: the separation model it runs was trained on data that's licensed non-commercial only, so its weights can only be bundled and distributed this way — free, non-commercial — and OraKara is built to match, permanently.

One sign-in, then nothing else to buy

Activating OraKara takes a single free Google sign-in on your machine, once. There's no card involved and nothing to renew — after that first activation, the app is fully unlocked on that machine for good, and every future update installs the same way, with no account check to pass again.

What "offline" actually covers

Extraction, separation, and playback all run locally — the video and audio you feed OraKara are never uploaded, full stop. The app does make a small number of network calls, and it's worth being precise about what they are, since none of them carry your content: the one-time sign-in above, periodic license re-checks, a first-run download of the separation model's weights, and an explicit feedback submission if you ever choose to send one. Once the model is downloaded, even the processing pipeline itself needs no connection at all.

There's no telemetry or analytics running in the background, and no third-party ads — the one cross-promotion panel on the Home screen only ever points at the developer's own other apps. Put together: free because of how the app is built, not as an introductory offer, and offline because your files are the one thing that never leaves your machine — everything else is just the app checking in on itself.
