Stop paying for window tools. Monorail puts every window on one endless strip: new windows slide in beside you and nothing you’re using ever shrinks. Drag a window onto another to dock or tab it, across any apps. Type “Slack and Mail side by side”. Zoom out to every workspace, jump back to saved views, warm your screen with Evening Mode, keep your Mac awake and Teams Available. Brings your AeroSpace, yabai or Rectangle setup. Native, notarised, SIP stays on. Free, every feature, every Mac.

Hi Product Hunt! 👋
Mac users pay again and again for window tools: a snapping app, a switcher, a layout app, a keep-awake app, a night-shift app, often per Mac and per major version. Monorail does all of it in one app, for free. No licence key, no trial clock, no paid upgrade next year.
And it fixes the thing every tiling window manager gets wrong: open a new window and everything else shrinks. On a laptop that’s maddening. Monorail does the opposite. Every window sits on a strip that runs past the edges of your screen. Open a window and it slides in next to the one you’re using; nothing else changes size. Move along with ⌃⌥← →, a swipe or the slider, and quit any time: every window goes back where it was.
🪟 Dock anything: drag a window onto another’s edge to split, or its middle for a tab group, across any apps.
🗣️ Say it: “Safari two thirds”, “Slack and Mail side by side”. Understood on your Mac.
🌙 Evening Mode at a click, Stay Awake, and Keep me Available for Teams and Slack.
🤖 AI agent alerts: a chime when your coding assistant needs approval.
🛡️ Safe screen sharing: private windows step aside in Zoom, Teams or Meet.
📦 Switch in a minute: imports AeroSpace, yabai/skhd or Rectangle.
🪶 Light: 0.15% of one core and about 55 MB when idle on battery.
Native Swift, notarised by Apple, only the Accessibility permission (SIP stays on), no account.
Windows and GNOME are in beta too.
I’d love to hear how you arrange your windows. 🙏
