The AI assistant that lives in your notch.
A small black pill that already sits at the top of your screen. Click it to ask, hold a key to dictate, hit record before any meeting. Apple Intelligence on-device — your voice never leaves the Mac.
One small pill. Three things it’s great at.
Dictation, an overlay you can talk to, and meeting recordings — all expand out of the same notch pill.
Little Overlay
A floating AI bubble that reads your screen. Ask anything; it can hit Gmail, Calendar, Notion, Linear, and the web.
Sonnet 4.6
Gmail
NotionAI Mode
Full multi-turn chat with model picker. Apple Foundation Models on-device, or Claude / Gemini / GPT when you want them.
Meetings & Library
Record meetings locally, transcribe, summarize. Every dictation, meeting, and chat indexed in one searchable library.
Lives at the top of your screen.
No menu bar item, no dock icon, no second window. Dollop tucks itself into the notch and only shows up when you ask.
- 01
Press a key or click the notch.
⌥ Space dictates into whatever app you're in. ⌃ S opens an overlay over anything on screen. ⌃ R starts a meeting recording. Or just click the pill.

The notch expands.
Voice in, screen context in. Apple Intelligence transcribes locally — never uploaded. For the overlay, Dollop reads what's on screen and decides which integration to hit.
- 03
Then it tucks itself away.
Cleaned text pasted into Mail, Linear, Notion, Cursor — anywhere. Answers cited with sources. Meetings transcribed locally. Pill shrinks back into the notch and waits.
Local by default. Fast by feel.
Most voice and AI tools ship your audio and your screen to a server you don't control. Dollop flips that.
Local-first.
Transcription runs on Apple Foundation Models. Screen captures stay on disk. Cloud routing only fires when you explicitly invoke an integration — and you see which one, every time.
Native Mac feel.
SwiftUI all the way down. No Electron, no web wrapper, no second menu bar. The overlay floats; the app lives in the dock; the keyboard does the work.
One app, one library.
Every dictation, meeting, and chat indexed in one place. Ask Dollop about anything you've said this quarter and it'll find it — no Mac swap, no second tool, no extra subscription.
