Show HN: Keynap – On-device AI voice typing app for Windows (apps.microsoft.com)

3 points by monosma 23d ago ↗ HN

Hello. I created Keynap, a local voice input app exclusively for Windows.

The reasons I developed this app are:

1. While Mac has both standard voice input and plenty of good voice input apps, I couldn't find one for Windows that had the feel I wanted.

2. I did not want to send all the audio input on my PC to the cloud.

3. I wanted to avoid paying ongoing subscriptions for input tools.

Main features: - Supports English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and more.

- Runs fast on CPUs (even faster with a GPU).

- Completely local, on-device processing.

- Distributed via Microsoft Store with automatic updates.

- Voice input is free and unlimited (some premium features are one-time purchases).

As I am a native Japanese speaker, I would appreciate your feedback on whether it works comfortably in languages other than Japanese.

As a thank you for trying it out, I will give away perpetual licenses for premium features to the first few people→ http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=532540&mstoken=JGVTF-...
