1

Hold the key

Right ⌘ by default. Rebind to anything — a function key, a modifier, whatever fits your hands.

2

Speak naturally

A mic-reactive pill appears near your menu bar so you know Yap is listening.

3

Release to type

AI cleans the transcript — filler words removed, punctuation added, tone matched to the app you're in.

Built for the way you actually work.

Works anywhere

Every Mac app — editors, browsers, Electron apps, native apps. Clipboard paste with your previous clipboard restored after.

Polished by AI

Claude Haiku strips ums, fixes obvious mis-hearings, and matches the register of the app you're typing into.

Personal dictionary

Teach Yap the names, jargon, and product terms it keeps mis-hearing. Added once, respected forever.

Searchable library

Every dictation saved locally. Search, re-copy, delete. Nothing syncs to our servers.

Private by default

Audio is streamed for transcription and immediately discarded. Transcripts live only on your Mac.

Auto-updates

Sparkle-powered. Cryptographically verified. You're always on the latest fix.

Simple pricing.
