About Yap
Yap turns speech into text anywhere you can type on your Mac. Set a hotkey, talk, press it again, and the words get pasted into whatever field you were in. It runs entirely on device using macOS 26's speech APIs, so there's no model to download and nothing leaves your machine. It's around 3,000 lines of native Swift in a 4 MB app that idles near 60 MB of memory. Free, MIT licensed, and built by Frigade because we wanted it for ourselves.
