Show HN: Yap, capture your day-to-day with video logs
Yap is a desktop app for your video logs. Open the app, press record and speak your mind. Once you’re done, Yap catalogues your video and makes it easy to find.

I built Yap as an alternative to journaling. I love journaling but it takes too long to write everything I want to say. A couple years ago, I started recording myself talking to the camera. I was using Photo Booth, then QuickTime, but the experience wasn’t great. I wanted an app purpose-built for video logs; so I built Yap.
Sharing with AI. Yap transcribes and summarizes your vlogs for you (OpenAI key needed). You can then take the transcripts and share them with friends or AIs. I use this to give AIs context about the projects I’m working on, or problems I’m dealing with.
Hope Yap can be useful to you too!
