Hitoku Draft is a native macOS menu bar AI assistant that runs entirely locally on Apple Silicon, using context from the active application and selected text to perform tasks like drafting emails, editing text, and answering questions. It's interesting because it combines multiple local AI models (speech-to-text, LLMs, text-to-speech) into a unified, privacy-focused desktop utility with a sophisticated Swift architecture.

Target audience: macos users, developers, productivity-focused professionals
