Snapdraft

Open it on top of any other Mac app. Draft, rewrite, dictate, preserve formatting, and copy.

Why Snapdraft

Everyday writing happens in small boxes across a dozen tools. Opening a chatbot for every rewrite adds friction, loses formatting, and scatters drafts.

Snapdraft keeps the writing flow where it belongs:

• Open a drafting overlay from anywhere on your Mac.
• Rewrite with built-in modes like Fix errors, Improve writing, Email, and Message.
• Create custom rewrite modes for the way you actually communicate.
• Preserve bullets, links, bold, italics, code, and paragraph structure.
• Dictate into apps that do not have their own microphone input.
• Keep draft history locally, so unfinished writing does not disappear.

Local-First

Snapdraft is built around keeping your writing on your machine.

• Rewriting runs locally through llama.cpp.
• Transcription runs locally through whisper.cpp.
• Draft history is stored on your Mac.
• Models download on first use and are cached locally.
