NewEarly access for Mac

It notices.
You nod.

Nod is a buddy that lives on your Mac. It connects the dots across your apps and your life, gets the work ready, and waits for your go‑ahead.

Invites go out in small groups.

And it doesn't wait to be asked.

How it works

Four steps. The last one is yours.

01 · Notices

Learns how you work

Your apps, people, places and rhythm, from the menu bar. Private, on your Mac.

02 · Connects

Has a hunch

Spots what no single app can, and shows you exactly what it put together.

03 · Asks

Waits for your nod

Drafts, fills and books, then asks. One key to approve. Nothing happens without it.

04 · Learns

Gets better every time

Every task becomes a skill, and every week it knows a little more of your life.

Product

A buddy that does the busywork, with your blessing.

Hunches

It connects what no single app can.

A Slack ask, your calendar and an email: separately nothing, together a problem. Nod sees it, and shows its sources.

Watch it work

See it working by the notch. Take over anytime.

Nod works on its own desk so your screen stays yours. It glows right by the notch while it works. Peek, pause, or take over with one key. No notch? It lives in your menu bar.

Memory

It remembers, with receipts.

Every fact shows where it came from. Edit or forget anything. When it isn't sure, it asks instead of guessing.

Privacy & control

A buddy, not a camera.

Its eyes show when it's looking. Ask it to look away, mark windows private, and decide what it may do, app by app.

Use cases

One buddy for every part of your life.

Nod organizes what it notices into areas, each with its own rules. The links between them are where it helps most.

Work I act with your nod

Sorts double‑bookings, drafts replies in your voice, chases follow‑ups, preps you for meetings.

Money I ask before paying

Pays bills under your limit, catches renewals and free trials, files receipts and reimbursements.

Health I only read

Books appointments when you're free, tracks claims, reminds you about refills and checkups.

Home & admin I remind first

Returns, renewals, forms, your passport, the saved places you never sorted. The chores you avoid.

People I draft, you send

Birthdays, thank‑yous, missed calls, plans with friends. The little things that matter.

Why Nod

It gets better every single day.

Nod builds a private map of your work and life: people, places, apps and habits. Every task it finishes becomes a skill. That memory lives on your Mac, it compounds over time, and nobody else has it.

Why we're building Nod

Your apps don't talk to each other. Nod does.

Our days are split across a dozen apps, and the important things hide in the gaps between them: the Slack message that clashes with a meeting, the email that changes the plan, the chore you keep opening and closing.

Most AI assistants wait for you to ask, then want the keys to everything. We wanted the opposite: a buddy that notices on its own, shows you exactly what it saw, and never acts without your nod.

Nod is early. We're inviting people in small groups and building it with them. If that sounds like you, we'd love to have you.

FAQ

Good to know

What does Nod actually do?

It lives in your Mac's menu bar, learns how you work across your apps, and notices what needs doing, including things that only make sense when you connect two or three apps. It prepares the work and does it once you approve.

What does it observe and remember?

The apps and windows you use, the people you talk to, and the patterns in your day, so it can help. It keeps a memory you can see in full: every fact shows where it came from, and you can edit or forget anything. That memory stays on your Mac.

Does it watch my screen all the time?

Only to help, and its face always shows whether it's looking. Ask it to look away for a while, mark windows private, and choose apps it should never look at. Banking, health portals and incognito windows are off‑limits by default.

Will it act without asking?

No. Every action waits for your nod: one key to approve, one to skip. You can loosen that app by app, or keep it strict forever.

Is there an iPhone app?

Not yet. Nod starts on the Mac. iPhone and Apple Watch are next on the roadmap: nod from your lock screen, follow Live Activities while it works, or text it. Your Mac and connected accounts do the noticing; your phone is where you nod.

Which Macs does it work on?

macOS Sonoma or later, Apple silicon and Intel. It lives in the menu bar, so it works the same with or without a notch, and on external displays.

Is there a version for teams?

It's on the roadmap. Join the list, mention your team, and we'll be in touch.
