ask your mac where.

stuck in an app? press ⌥ space and ask. gleam, a little light that lives in your menu bar, flies to the exact button you need. you click. it never clicks for you.

try it right here: click a sticky note, or press ⌥ space.

this desktop is a browser recreation. the real gleamcast reads whichever app you're in.

your screen stays yours.

reads labels, not pixels. gleam asks macos for the names and positions of buttons, the same list voiceover uses. no screenshots to find a button.
runs on your mac. answers come from apple's on-device model. nothing is uploaded unless you turn on cloud help yourself.
points, never clicks. it can't change a setting, send a message or delete a file. every click is yours.
a fallback for stubborn apps. if an app hides its labels, gleam can read the visible text on your mac, only if you allow it.

before you ask.

does it click things for me?

no. gleam lands on the button and waits. after you click, it reads the window again and shows you the next step.

which apps?

any mac app that exposes accessibility labels, which is most of them. for the rest it can fall back to reading visible text on your mac.

what permissions?

accessibility, so it can read button names and positions. screen recording only if you turn on the text fallback.

when can i get it?

gleamcast is being built for apple silicon macs on macos 26. leave your email in hello.txt to get the first build.
