I found that having a quick way to locally transcribe what i am saying is helpful for my workflow, especially when vibe-coding or generally when chatting with AI models, as small transcription errors are mostly not a problem.
So I built YapType. It's just <200 lines of code total. On press of a shortcut, it transcribes locally and opens the result in your text editor - simple as that.
