Gaze focus for macOS from your Mac's camera: look at a display or a window and Winq focuses it, with the pointer where you're looking. Head and eyes both count, it waits while you type or use the mouse, and it keeps learning from your clicks. For multi-monitor setups, developers, and anyone who wants their hands on the keyboard. On-device and private. Free for a day.
Hey Product Hunters, I’m Mahmoud, and I build Winq.
Winq started as a hands-free control app. You could wink to click and use face gestures for shortcuts. People loved the demo, but they didn’t keep using the gestures. What they kept was the quiet part: look at a screen or window, and it’s focused. No clicking or alt-tabbing to get your keyboard where your eyes already are.
So for v2 I cut the gestures and went all in on that one idea: Winq knows where your attention is. Once your Mac knows that, it can do a lot more than switch focus. That’s what Winq Intelligence is:
Seen (⌃⌥S). Find anything you’ve read in your own words, like “that Postgres article from Tuesday”. Winq finds the page and the app and answers from what you read. Then it takes you back to the exact spot.
Meeting catch-up. Step away from a call. When you look back, a summary is waiting at the edge of your screen: what was decided, who owns what, and anything someone asked you.
Away mode. Walk away and your Mac locks and pauses what’s playing. When you come back, one card shows what you were working on and which notifications came in while you were gone.
Why I think this is the right pivot: most AI tools wait for you to open them and explain your context. Winq already has your context, because it knows what you looked at and when you left. The best features are the ones you never have to start yourself.
Privacy is the whole foundation. The camera stays on your Mac, frames are never saved, and Winq only uses cloud AI when you ask it something.
Gaze focus is free forever. Winq Intelligence comes with the paid plans.
I’d love to hear what you’d want Winq to catch you up on next. I’ll be here all day answering questions.

Who hunted Winq?
Winq was hunted by Mahmoud Galal. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
