Yaps is a local AI notes app that lets you capture, organize, and query your thoughts by voice. Hold a key, speak, and clean, self-corrected text lands in any app (Notes, email, code, etc.), while every note becomes a searchable Markdown document stored entirely on your device with no cloud dependency.
Key benefits include:
- Dictation: Yap to any app by holding a key, speaking, and releasing — clean text appears where your cursor is, with self-correction.
- Connected Notes: A real second brain with backlinks and [[wiki-links]] that weave all your notes together for better thinking flow.
- Your Vault: Plain Markdown notes, fully owned and private, with no cloud storage or third-party access.
- On-Device Processing: Fast (~300ms to text), works offline, and requires no cloud round-trip for privacy and speed.
- Ask Your Notes: Query your notes to get answers with citations back to the exact source notes, eliminating external search.
Perfect for anyone who wants to capture voice notes, organize their thoughts, and access information offline without cloud dependency, including students, writers, developers, and productivity enthusiasts.
