# Availability

Nock is in launch preparation. These pages describe the product and its implemented workflows so you can learn how it works before public downloads are ready.

## Check before installing

Use the [Nock download page](https://v3code.dev/nock/download) to check availability. If it says **Coming soon**, there is no public installer available through that page yet. Documentation, a website demonstration, or an account button does not mean a desktop build has been released.

Once downloads open, use the platforms and requirements listed on that page for the released build.

## What may differ between accounts

Features depend on your app version and the capabilities enabled for your account. The account interface can show a feature as locked even if you have read about it here.

- On-device dictation is the free fallback described by the product's account model.
- Agent conversations, cloud transcription, and spoken replies require the appropriate account access.
- Background-worker limits vary by access level.
- Cloud agents are not publicly available at launch preparation. A plan description is not confirmation that cloud access is enabled.

## Preview versus desktop

The website demonstration introduces Nock's interface. It cannot establish that the installed app has your microphone, Accessibility, connected accounts, or local project permissions. Complete the desktop setup when an installer becomes available.

For the first steps, read [Downloads and updates](/nock/downloads-updates) and [Sign in](/nock/sign-in). For the product introduction, see [Nock overview](/nock/overview).
