Mac and IOS apps On-device Notri,

On-device AI has shifted from a buzzword to a feature set. Notri runs 100% on-device for real-time transcription [2]. AI File Sorter sorts files locally with Metal-speed [1]. Osiri AI is opening up to alpha testers for an AI-driven dashboard [3].

Notri — Real-time transcription, auto speaker detection, and summaries all stay on-device [2]. It’s offline and private—no sign-ups, no data sharing—and supports 40+ languages [2]. Smart organization and in-chat AI use built-in Apple Intelligence for quick insights [2].

AI File Sorter — Auto-organizes files on macOS using local AI with Metal-level speed [1]. It runs LLaMa 3B and Mistral 7B locally, is open source, and supports NAS drives [1]. The app is in early v1.0.0, and data stays local unless you opt for a remote model [1].

Osiri AI — Onboarding extra app owners as alpha testers for an AI-driven dashboard [3]. The goal is to boost ASO and provide data-backed tips in a conversational interface [3].

Together, these examples show a future where on-device AI powers core features without pushing data to the cloud, while still offering practical, real-world use cases for Mac and iOS apps.
