How it works

From messy voice note to viral short in 60s

  1. Step 01

    1 · Record or upload

    Voice memo, a video from dinner, or a screen-recorded group call. We only extract the sound layer.

    Any mic format .m4a, .mp3, .mov

  2. Step 02

    2 · We write the script

    AI figures out who said what, keeps the comedic punchlines, and cuts the awkward dead air. You can edit every syllable.

    Auto-diarization 98% accuracy

  3. Step 03

    3 · Get your cartoon

    Pick a cartoon art style, pick characters, render on your device. Post directly to TikTok/Reels or keep it in the chat.

Security guarantee Local-first

Private by design

Your faces never leave your phone.

Group chats are sacred. We built Yaptoon with an uncompromising local-first architecture so your late-night unhinged conversations stay yours.

  • Videos stay on your device

    Only the compressed audio track is processed for transcription — camera feeds are never uploaded.

  • Original audio auto-purged

    Voice files are wiped clean from ephemeral servers the second your cartoon script is generated.

  • Nothing is public unless you hit export

    Keep the cartoon directly in your group WhatsApp/iMessage or share it with the world. You hold the keys.

EU-hosted infra Zero facial biometric scanning

Be first when it drops.
