We speak your stack

Flownotch is built on top of macOS APIs, but the SDK is plain TypeScript. Use it from your existing app or write a new widget from scratch.

Notch love
from around
the world

Up the docs, install, and demoed a widget at our team standup in one afternoon. That's wild. We're moving everything from Raycast to Flownotch.

We built an in-house MVP for our team's pomodoro, but maintaining a menu-bar app got old fast. With Flownotch, we shipped the same thing in a weekend — and the pet is everyone's favorite.

I would've created a custom solution from scratch for hosting AI in my notch, but it would've been complex and expensive. Then someone told me about Flownotch — it was the best solution.

Sr PM, Spotner

The Flownotch team's AI workflows worked out of the box, so we didn't need to consider a big in-house effort. Lock-in was minimal and the pet was actually well-received.

Your pet has feelings
about your day.
