Yap

Fast, private voice dictation for Mac and Windows

Yap is voice dictation for Mac and Windows. Hold a shortcut, speak, and let go: Yap turns your speech into clean, punctuated text and types it into the app you are using, from email and docs to chat and terminals. Speech recognition runs on your computer, so recordings are never uploaded. Works offline, 25 languages detected automatically, with a searchable local history. Free for 3 days with no account or card, then a 10-day trial, then USD 6.90/month or USD 69/year.

Yap Audio to Text

Free audio and video transcription that never uploads your file

Turn an MP3, M4A, WAV or video file into editable text and SRT or VTT subtitles. OpenAI Whisper runs in your browser, so the file is never uploaded. Free, no sign-up, no minute limits. Files up to 60 minutes and 300 MB; English or 99 languages with automatic detection (never translated). Subtitles are cut at natural pauses with real start and end times. Edit, copy or save as .txt.
