What it does
Sayonic is a Mac voice assistant in a small on-screen pill: you say what you need in plain words, and it opens the app, types the text or finds the file, working with the apps you already use.

- Plain-speech app and tab control. Opens and switches apps, plays and pauses media in a browser tab and types for you, without commands to learn. Official source 1 ↗
- Files, Notes and Calendar. Finds files by name or the words inside them, dictates notes and adds meetings to Calendar. Official source 1 ↗
- Choice of brain. Runs on Sayonic Cloud credits, your own API keys, a local model through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint such as Ollama or LM Studio, or a CLI agent such as Claude Code, Codex CLI or Gemini CLI. Official source 1 ↗
- Live conversation. A spoken back-and-forth with replies read aloud; on Sayonic Cloud it uses about 100 credits a minute. Official source 1 ↗ · Official source 2 ↗
- Asks before acting. Sayonic asks first and can be stopped at any time; agent brains ask for Allow, Always allow or Deny before acting. Official source 1 ↗ · Official source 2 ↗
