Jordi Bruin
Jordi Bruin is a Gumroad top creator who builds native macOS apps around AI and everyday Mac productivity. His storefront groups a large catalog into AI Tools, Useful Mac Utilities, and Talks and Courses, with individual product pages for each app.
The AI lineup centers on MacWhisper for on-device audio transcription with OpenAI Whisper and Parakeet, MacGPT for ChatGPT from the menubar, Voices for multi-provider text-to-speech, and smaller tools like Detective for GPT Vision on macOS. Several apps use a bring-your-own-API-key model so users pay OpenAI or other providers directly rather than through a middleman.
Most apps are sold as one-time purchases with no subscriptions. MacWhisper has a free tier plus a Pro license, and an OpenAI Bundle packages MacWhisper Pro with MacGPT, Voices, and Detective at a discounted rate. The shop also lists non-AI Mac utilities such as Vivid for MacBook Pro brightness, Forehead for notch hiding, and Cooldown for Low Power Mode toggling.
Buyer ratings on flagship products are consistently high, with MacWhisper above 4.5 stars from over 2,200 reviews and MacGPT above 4.7 stars from over 3,000 reviews on Gumroad.
