## About

Yakki is a macOS menu bar utility that turns your voice into text faster than any alternative. Press a hotkey, speak naturally, and your words stream into whatever app you're using — email, Slack, VS Code, Notes, anywhere.

With sub-200ms latency powered by Parakeet and Whisper running entirely on your Mac, there's zero cloud dependency. Your voice never leaves your device.

Yakki reads your screen context via OCR to format text appropriately — proper email tone, clean code comments, casual chat — without you lifting a finger.

Key features:

- Push-to-talk dictation with <200ms end-to-end latency

- 100% on-device transcription (Parakeet & Whisper) — no cloud, no data leaves your Mac

- Context-aware formatting adapts to the app you're typing in

- Hot-swappable transcription engines (speed vs. accuracy vs. multilingual)

- Meeting transcription with speaker identification

- App audio capture up to 2 hours with auto-save
