Privacy AI vs EchoCaption

Privacy AI is an all-in-one AI toolkit for every kind of model: local language models (GGUF, MLX, Core AI), speech recognition, text-to-speech and image models, Apple's own models, and the major cloud providers. Chat, run agents, transcribe meetings and create images with 60+ tools. Local models work fully offline, and most file types convert to Markdown that AI can read.
