I built Pip because I kept doing the same annoying loop: get stuck on something, take a screenshot, open ChatGPT, explain the context, then go back and try to follow the answer.
Pip started thanks to the open-source work behind HeyClicky, which gave me a strong foundation to build from. From there, I focused heavily on taking the experience further — better UX, more useful features, and making it feel like something you can actually use every day.
Pip lives on your desktop. When you hold a key, it can see what you’re looking at, understand the context, and help immediately — whether that means explaining something, pointing to where to click, fixing an error, or walking you through a task.
The goal is simple: make getting help on your computer feel less like chatting with a bot and more like having someone sitting next to you.
