The Problem

ChatGPT doesn't know what you're looking at

Copy-Paste Everything

Want to ask about a document? Copy the text. A website? Copy the content. An error message? Screenshot and upload. So much friction.

Constant Tab Switching

Your work is here. ChatGPT is there. You're constantly switching back and forth, losing focus.

Context Gets Lost

By the time you've copied everything ChatGPT needs to understand your question, you've wasted 2 minutes.

How It Works

Ask. Get answers. Stay in flow.

1

Double-tap Control

Anywhere on your Mac. Looking at anything. A floating AI assistant appears instantly.

2

Understands Your Context

TheQuickFox understands what you're looking at - documents, websites, code, spreadsheets, anything.

3

Just Ask

"What does this error mean?" "Summarize this article." "Explain this code." Instant, contextual answers.

Trust & Transparency

Fully Open Source

Inspect the code, see what data is sent, or run it yourself.

Private by Design

Screenshots are processed and immediately deleted. Nothing stored on our servers.

Fully Open Source

Both client and server are open source on GitHub. See exactly what runs on your Mac.

Use Cases
