I made Kasper, a free voice assistant for Mac that does things for you or shows you where to click

Hold Command Esc and say what you want. Kasper can open apps, change settings, move files, write a draft or make an image. Ask for a few things at once and it starts a separate agent for each, so it can build a website while it converts a folder of photos. If you'd rather learn something yourself, it walks you through it step by step and points at the exact button on screen. It's free and runs on your own ChatGPT Plus or Pro plan or OpenAI API key (other AI providers are coming soon), so I never see your requests. Requires macOS 26 on Apple silicon. This is the first public release, so I'd love feedback on what breaks and what you'd want it to do. https://kasperformac.com

For the folder-of-photos example, does Kasper create converted copies or replace the originals? I'd want to see the destination folder and output format before it starts, with the originals left alone. That would make a first test much easier to trust.

Great question. Kasper never replaces your originals. Before it touches any of your existing files, it shows you a plan: where the originals are, the new folder the results will go into, and the output format. Nothing happens until you click Start. While it works, your original files are locked, so they can't be overwritten, renamed or deleted, even by the scripts Kasper runs. The converted copies end up in their own folder next to the originals. If you'd ever want the originals replaced, you'd have to ask for that, and the plan warns you before anything starts.

Looks super cool. But it does not recognize my codex app. =(

Thanks for flagging this, literally it's in the newest update I sent out, caught it as I did some testing today. Basically OpenAI moved the codex to a different location and I just caught this today, please update to the latest version and tap "Check again", it will find it now. Thanks!
