Silkwave is the ultimate Mac client that unifies Apple Intelligence and the world's leading AI models into one powerful, privacy-focused workspace.
Tired of context-switching between browser tabs? Silkwave brings ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and your local models together in a beautiful, high-performance desktop app.

Silkwave integrates deeply with macOS to let you chat and transcribe audio using the native on-device models provided by Apple Intelligence. • Private & Offline: Your data stays on your device. • Multi-Language Support: Native transcription supported for English, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish. • Requirements: Apple Intelligence features require macOS 26+.
INTELLIGENT AUDIO RECORDER Turn your Mac into an AI listening station. • System Audio & Mic: Record meetings, webinars, or online videos directly from your system audio, microphone, or both simultaneously. • Flexible Transcription: Transcribe recordings instantly using on-device Apple Intelligence or cloud-based OpenAI models. • Analyze & Summarize: Ask AI to summarize recordings or extract action items.
