Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Giacomo, the developer behind Snaply. I’m incredibly excited to share what I’ve been working on. To be honest, the story of Snaply starts with me being a user of other dictation apps. I really loved the concept of AI voice typing, but I hit two major roadblocks that I just couldn't get past: The Cost: Existing tools were charging up to $12/month for individuals and $40/month for enterprise. That felt like a lot for a utility. The Privacy: I wasn't comfortable with the idea that my voice recordings and private thoughts were being processed on someone else's servers and potentially used for data collection. I wanted a tool that respected my privacy and my wallet. So, I built Snaply. 🚀 What is Snaply? Snaply is an ultra-fast AI dictation tool for macOS that runs 100% locally on your device. Because we don't need to pay for expensive cloud processing servers, I am making Snaply 100% Free for individuals. ✨ Why you’ll love it: 🔒 100% Private & Offline: Your voice data never leaves your Mac. It runs on local Whisper models, so you can dictate sensitive emails or confidential code without worry. ⚡ Incredibly Fast: Since there is no latency sending data to the cloud and back, Snaply is blazing fast and responsive. 💸 Free Forever (Individuals): No monthly subscriptions for personal use. Just download and go. 🧠 Smart Grammar: It doesn't just transcribe; it polishes. It fixes grammar and punctuation on the fly so you don't have to edit. How to use it (it’s super simple): Download Snaply for Mac. Press your shortcut key (like Function or Command). Start speaking! Snaply types perfectly into Notion, Slack, VS Code, or wherever you are. I’d love for you to give it a spin and let me know what you think. Since this is the first release, your feedback means the world to me and will help shape the future of the app! Thanks so much! 🙌 Giacomo
