Hi Product Hunt! The smart speaker in my living room is shared with the family and three rooms away, and Siri on the Mac never quite worked for me. I wanted something at my desk I could just talk to. Chappie is built with Tauri 2 and Rust, and keeps speech recognition local. Mac (Apple silicon), `brew install --cask piro0919/tap/chappie`. Feedback welcome!
