Transform your Mac's notch into a powerful productivity hub. Chat with Apple Intelligence right from your notch. Completely on-device, private, and unlimited—no internet required. Media controls, live weather, camera access, and calendar. Predefined timers and stopwatch for Pomodoro sessions, cooking, or any time tracking needs. Store text snippets and access your complete clipboard history. Quick-access notepad for capturing thoughts instantly. Temporary staging area for files.
The notch is an opportunity to turn that space into instantly accessible productivity tools. Perch is not the first of the app that tries it but I try to make it the most versatile. Perch evolved from a simple notch utility into a complete productivity hub, and adding Apple Intelligence with the Foundation Models Framework felt like the perfect fit: powerful AI chat that's completely private, unlimited, and accessible without ever leaving your workflow.
