SnapName watches your screenshot folder and uses local AI to suggest useful filenames on your Mac.

Original Text

I made my first macOS utility app that ships with a bundled Gemma 4 model, specifically the Gemma E4B one. It made my app DMG have 5.3 GB in size, but I think it is a small size for the power that this free local model can provide.

It runs fine on CPU, but can also run on Apple Silicon GPU, although I did not notice any performance improvements with GPU (tested on a M5 chip).

I think these local lightweight and multimodal models will open multiple possibilities for new software tools where privacy is essential.
