Yakki

Dictate and transcribe on your Mac privately and quickly

Yakki is a macOS-native dictation and transcription app that runs entirely on your Mac. Hold a key, speak naturally, and your words appear exactly where your cursor is—in any app. There's no window switching, no copy-pasting, and no friction. Just talk and keep moving, with context-aware text and sub-200ms latency.

Record any app's audio in one click. Capture audio from Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, or your browser—any app running on your Mac. Select it from the menu bar and hit record. Yakki transcribes it in real time while you focus on the conversation. Got a podcast, a voice memo, a lecture recording, or an interview? Just drag it in, and Yakki handles it.
