Talk to your Mac and get things done fast with an AI copilot
Alter is the Mac AI assistant that lets you get stuff done fast. Just talk to extract insights from YouTube videos, draft emails, or extract data. It understands what's on your screen and works across your apps, bringing intelligence to your entire day.
I'm Samuel, founder of Alter, and after months of building with a tight community, we're finally launching the first AI assistant deeply integrated with your mac!
🫠 The Problem
Let's be real - our workday is a mess. We jump between countless apps, tabs, and tools, constantly losing context and focus. AI tools should help, but most just add another window to manage and another place to check.
✨ What Makes Alter Different
We've built intelligence that belongs in the flow of everyday life:
Lives in your notch - Always accessible, never in the way
System-wide integration - Works with ALL your apps, files & folders
Privacy-ready & accessible - Can run offline or use your own API key
Voice commands built-in - Because talking is so much faster
Meeting superpowers - Instant actionable notes from any conversation
