Hey everyone!
I built Crade because I got tired of the screenshot-AI dance: take screenshot → switch to ChatGPT → upload → wait → switch back → maybe paste the answer. Every. Single. Time.
So I built a desktop AI that lives as a small overlay always on top of your other apps, already seeing what's on your screen. Stuck on something? Just type the question right there. The answer appears in the same window, above whatever you're working on. No copy-paste, no tab-switching, no app to open.
What's the one feature that would make this a no-brainer for you? And the one missing thing that's a dealbreaker?
And I'd genuinely love to hear your ideas for making Crade better. Features you wish existed, workflows that suck right now, anything. Drop suggestions below and I'll read every single one.
Happy to answer anything — the tech stack, the design choices, why I priced it this way, anything.
Interesting app! Can it also interact with desktop elements autonomously and perform automation tasks?
Also can it capture dynamic state changes, like if a button is clicked that leads to an error?
