Hold a key or say its name, speak, and your Mac does it, with every command checked for intent and risk first.

The problem
Voice assistants either do too little or act without checking. I wanted one that knows when a command is risky.
What I built
- Push-to-talk and wake-word input with macOS speech recognition.
- Each command returns typed decisions with probabilities: intent, is it a command, is it risky, which app you meant.
- Code routes on confidence; answers and summaries come from the model you choose, local (Ollama) or hosted.
- Packaged as a native macOS app.
How it works
Hold the key or say its name and talk.
Impact
- Works fully local with Ollama when privacy matters.
What I learned
Typed outputs with probabilities make an assistant predictable. The code decides; the model only advises.
