Hey Product Hunt, We make the free browser AI tools at pocketweb.tools. A browser tab tops out at about 4 GB of memory, so we built PocketWebTools for Mac: one app that runs open models on your Mac, with the tools built around them. Inside: - Cut long videos into captioned vertical clips, or edit a video by deleting words from its transcript - Transcribe files, your microphone or a live call, with speaker labels - Upscale photos at full resolution, and turn PDFs and scans into text - Speak any text, in your own voice if you like - Chat with open models up to 35B parameters, even with Wi-Fi off On privacy: your files and chats never leave your Mac. The app does make six network calls, all listed on the page. One is anonymous usage data, on by default, and a switch in Settings turns it off. Price: $99 once, free lifetime updates, one key for up to 3 Macs. Launch week is $49, applied automatically at checkout, until Thursday, October 15 at 11:30 am Pacific. There is no free trial, so the 14-day money-back guarantee is how you try it: email us for a full refund, no questions asked. It needs an Apple Silicon Mac and macOS 14 or later (14.6 to capture system audio). 8 GB of memory runs the smallest models, 16 GB is the sweet spot, and the largest need 32 GB. Is a full list of network calls enough to trust a local AI app? What else would you check?
