Hey Product Hunt!

I built Glide to boost my own productivity. Every time I reached for the mouse or opened another app, it became a new feature.

Now Cmd + Space does most of it: open apps, snap windows, search your clipboard, expand snippets, or type "5pm london in tokyo" or "timer 25m tea" and get an answer right away. You can ask AI with your own key or a local model, and drag over anything on screen to copy its text. Type "help" once it's open to see everything it can do. I'd love your feedback!
