GoKawiilYap Blazing-fast voice dictation for macOS that works anywhere you can type. Press a shortcut, talk, press it again. Your words land in whatever text field you were using. No account, no API key, no audio leaving your machine. Built by Frigade. yap-demo.mp4
What it does
Yap lives in your menu bar and waits for a shortcut. Trigger it and a small window appears near the bottom of the screen with a live waveform and a running preview of what you have said so far. Press the shortcut again and the text gets pasted into the app you were already working in. Every transcript is saved locally, so you can go back and copy something again later.
The default shortcut is ⌘⇧D . You can rebind it, or set a single modifier key instead. Tapping right shift on its own works nicely if you have a spare thumb.
