Glaze is the easiest way to go from an idea to a Mac app. Describe what you want, and it builds a real app that lives in your dock, launches instantly, works offline, and taps into the full power of your computer. Software that's finally personal, shaped around you. From the makers of Raycast.
made a quick app to rename batches of files and it actually worked without me touching a terminal. The offline part is what sold me, didn't expect something this capable to skip the cloud entirely.

@biroluxab Let's gooo!
Yolo being built by one of your own engineers to juggle git worktrees and multiple coding agents is the most convincing demo here — that's exactly the kind of hyper-specific tool nobody ships commercially, and it's the one I'd use daily.
What stands out vs other app-gen tools is the distribution story: private team sharing means internal tools actually stay internal instead of dying as a repo someone has to clone and build. Congrats @thomaspaulmann — curious what the store looks like in six months.

@akbar_b Yeah, this blew my mind in a team meeting. I have a bunch of these apps myself. We run easily on a dozen apps already. More to come, glad it clicks.
I installed this app and created a menu bar app that displays the current weather conditions from my weather station in less than 15 minutes. It's great for those cases where you just want a simple local app on your machine and don;t want to fuss with more complicated tools.

@manuel_castaneda1 that's it! No fuss, just what you need.

Hey everyone 👋 I'm Pavlo, AI engineer on Glaze.
I build the AI agent behind Glaze, from writing its prompts and refining the harness around it to wiring everything together so it can plan, write code, and validate its own work.
My favorite part is seeing all the effort and engineering behind creating an app disappear into an experience that feels like magic. You describe the app you have in mind, and Glaze helps bring it to life.
On a personal note, beyond being a blast and an awesome challenge to work on, Glaze has also had a real impact on my day-to-day life. I used it to build something I genuinely needed, a dashboard for monitoring my glucose levels tailored to my needs. I never felt like the existing options gave me exactly what I wanted, so I built one for myself with Glaze.
Can’t wait to see what you build. Share your apps, send us your feedback, and help shape what comes next for Glaze 💠
How does Glaze actually handle more complex app logic, like connecting to external APIs or saving user data locally, or is it mainly for self-contained little tools right now?
love that raycast is going after this, the "lives in your dock and works offline" part is the actual hard problem most AI app builders skip since they're all web output. does the generated app get real native access (menu bar, keyboard shortcuts, notifications) or is it more of a sandboxed webview wrapper under the hood?
Love the idea of making software more personal and less “one size fits all.” Curious to see how far people can push it in real workflows beyond early demos.

@kaerels_fernandez Thanks for the kind words; I’ve seen some really wild things already, and I’m amazed every day by the creativity users have 🔥
I build a fully GitHub Review HUB for our team that unifies the way we work with PRs within our team and it has been a gamechanger

@kaerels_fernandez The sky is the limit. We haven't seen the true crazy things just yet.
