Busy at the notch

An agent is working — the beaver keeps watch beside the camera.

Built for coding flow

Agents in one glance.

Up to four local sessions in a fixed-height monitor—project, activity, status, and one contextual action.

The quiet companion

A beaver that stays out of the way.

Still and brown: nothing is happening. Moving: an agent is working. Green: the task is done — your turn.

One gesture

Copy. Hover. Paste.

A single continuous path from capture to reuse—no switching windows, no hunting through history.

  1. 01

    Copy

    Anything useful lands in Recent automatically—text, links, code, images, files.

  2. 02

    Hover

    Move to the notch. The shelf unfolds around it with three complete clip cards in view.

  3. 03

    Paste

    Return or click pastes back into the frontmost app. Escape backs out one level.

Recent stays an automatic inbox. Saved is deliberate. They never mix.

Private by default

Your clips never leave this Mac.

Grinote is a native app. The shelf, the filters, and the agent panel run on your machine — not in a browser tab synced to someone else’s server.

  • Works offline

    No internet required to capture, search, or paste. Airplane mode, café Wi‑Fi, or a locked-down network — the notch keeps working.

  • No cloud shelf

    Clipboard history is stored in a local database on disk. We don’t upload clips, OCR text, or agent activity to sync them elsewhere.

  • No account for the shelf

    Using Grinote on your Mac doesn’t require signing in. An account is only for buying and downloading the app from the website.

  • Sensitive filter

    Passwords, tokens, and other secrets can be kept out of the shelf automatically — or deleted in one move when something slips through.

  • Pause anytime

    One click stops capture. Resume when you’re back in flow — nothing is recorded while you’re paused.

Keep the useful things close.
