A lightweight AI assistant for macOS menu bar and app context.

一款用于 macOS 菜单栏和应用上下文的轻量 AI 助手。

Sidey opens from the menu bar as a compact popover for the short AI jobs that appear while you work: explain a snippet, rewrite a paragraph, inspect selected text, or ask an assistant tuned for the current app.

旁白从菜单栏打开为紧凑浮窗,面向工作中随手出现的小任务:解释一段内容、改写一句话、处理选中文本,或调用为当前应用准备好的专属助手。

Designed for short, app-specific work.

为短任务和应用场景而设计。

Sidey keeps the assistant close but not dominant. The useful part is not another chat app; it is the right prompt, in the right app, with the right context.

旁白不会把自己变成另一个沉重聊天窗口。关键是:在合适的应用里,用合适的助手,带上合适的上下文。

Menu bar popover

Open Sidey from the menu bar, finish the request in a focused popover, and return to the same app.

Context from where you are

上下文来自当前位置

Use selection, clipboard, and the active app so the assistant starts with the material already in front of you.

Assistants that match the app
