akous

akous generates immersive ambient soundscapes from text descriptions using on-device AI. Powered by CoreML and Apple Silicon, akous runs a diffusion transformer model entirely locally — no internet required, no data ever leaves your device. Describe any soundscape and hear it come to life in seconds.

• Curated catalog of 300+ preset prompts across nature, urban, ethereal, cinematic, and lo-fi categories
• Daily prompting tips and one-tap "Surprise Me" inspiration
