About the startup
Most AI helpers live in a browser tab: you copy, paste, switch windows, and send everything you read to the cloud. Macsist lives in your Mac's menu bar instead. Select any text or drag-select a screen region, press a hotkey, and a concise explanation streams into a glass panel right by your cursor: without ever stealing focus. It runs on a local or any OpenAI-compatible API. No cloud required, no Electron.
