Flowly is a native AI assistant that takes action across your apps and browser tabs. Summon it as a full chat, from the menubar, or through a notch overlay — one global hotkey away on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Since our January launch we shipped a browser agent, voice coach, and end-to-end encryption — your chats stay yours, even from us. Free forever — Pro plan for unlimited usage.
Hey Product Hunt — Hakan from Nocetic, the team behind Flowly.
We built Flowly because every "AI assistant" we tried was either a chat tab in the browser or a Slack bot that could describe what to do but couldn't actually do it. We wanted something that lived natively on the desktop, knew what was on screen, and could click the buttons for us.
Flowly is the result. It runs as:
- a full native chat app,
- a menubar dock,
- a notch overlay summoned by a global hotkey, and
- a browser extension that lets the assistant act on the page — fill forms, drive Google Sheets, navigate Maps, draft Gmail replies.
A few things we're proud of:
Native everywhere. Real binaries for macOS, Windows, and Linux. OS-encrypted token storage (Keychain on macOS, DPAPI on Windows). Global Fn-key hotkey via a small native module.
Persistent sessions. Long-running agent task? Walk away, come back — the stream picks up where it left off. iOS-style continuity on the desktop.
Browser agent, not browser link. The extension reads the DOM and Flowly plans → acts → verifies. Not "here's a URL, you do it."
Honest state of things: this is v1.0.18. Voice coach and notch overlay shipped recently. The browser agent works on most sites we've thrown at it but we'd love your edge cases.
Free during launch. Two questions we'd love answered in the comments:
1. What's the one task you'd want an AI to actually do for you on your computer?
2. Which site should the browser agent work on next?
Thanks for taking a look — we'll be in the comments all day.
— Hakan & the Nocetic team
First, thank you. Flowly hit #4 today and the day isn't even over. The sign-ups, DMs, and feedback have been wild.
Quick context for anyone landing here: Flowly is a desktop AI assistant that doesn't just chat — it actually clicks buttons in your apps and browser tabs through OS-level controls and a Chrome extension.
Native to macOS, Windows, Linux. One global hotkey away from anywhere.
Free during launch and staying free for now (we'll figure pricing out later).
If you try it and something feels off, reply here or DM me — I'm reading every comment today.
— Hakan, founder
Hey Hakan - nice idea & a clear differentiation from others on this market. How do I ensure agents knows me? You know - who I am, what I do, etc. Without it, its output might be off or mediocre.
Does Flowly keep learning about me along the way?
