Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm excited to finally share Vaak with you all. The why: I kept hitting the same wall. Every voice-to-text tool I tried either lived in its own app (copy, paste, repeat), shipped my audio off to some server, or both. I just wanted to press a key, talk, and have the words land wherever my cursor already was. So I built it. What Vaak does: Press Option+V anywhere on your Mac, speak, and your words appear in the app you're already using. Gmail, Slack, VS Code, Notion, Messages, terminal, whatever. A tiny pill sits at the top of your screen (can be minimized too) while you talk, and silence auto-stops the recording. The part I care most about: It's 100% on-device. Vaak runs locally on your Apple Silicon GPU with Metal acceleration. Zero network calls for transcription. No audio is stored, uploaded, or logged anywhere. Your voice never leaves your Mac. Period. 🎉 PH-exclusive: Lifetime for $75 with code PRODUCTHUNT Lifetime is already 50% off at $100, and for launch week only, PRODUCTHUNT takes another 25% off, bringing it to $75 for Vaak forever, including every future model upgrade. Works for everyone, anywhere. Code applies to the Lifetime plan only. Lifetime plan is a limited period offer, so avail it as it lasts. A few other things worth knowing: macOS 10.15+ on Apple Silicon 7-day unlimited trial, no credit card Free tier after that: 60 minutes/month, forever Monthly $2.50, Yearly $25, Lifetime $100 (or $75 with the code, Lifetime only) 🇮🇳 Special India pricing auto-applies based on your location Only works on apple silicon mac (as of now). I'd genuinely love your feedback, especially the rough edges. What apps does the text injection break in? What's your ideal shortcut? Is 60 minutes on the free tier the right number? Happy to answer anything in the comments. Thanks for checking it out. 🙏
