Oreja gives voice conversations room to breathe on Mac. It listens locally to ChatGPT's audio, lowers or pauses Apple Music, and restores the volume you chose. We built it because music and conversation should coexist without constant manual controls. We would love feedback on the handoff, especially sleep/wake recovery and different microphones.
This is actually pretty useful! Having to pause music every time you start talking to ChatGPT gets annoying. Nice to see someone come up with a simple fix for it.
