Useful AI workflows that keep more data, control, or compute on your own machine.
My Free Code runs a local gateway that translates agent protocols, routes models across hosted or local providers, handles fallbacks, and launches multiple coding-agent clients.
Why it made this list: One local gateway across hosted and local model providers.
Hayamimi provides real-time multilingual speech recognition, translation, speaker labeling, live subtitles, an OBS overlay, a dashboard, and embeddable runtime APIs without cloud transcription.
Why it made this list: CPU-only live transcription avoids a cloud speech bill.
