The invisible AI overlay for calls, meetings and your screen
3 followers
Pluely is a desktop overlay for macOS, Windows and Linux that stays invisible on screen shares and recordings. Listen mode transcribes your call live with speaker labels, drafts an answer the moment a question is asked, and writes a recap when the meeting ends. Ask mode takes a typed question, a screenshot, a selected region or a file. Transcripts, chats and files stay on your computer. Free with your own API key or a CLI like Claude Code or Ollama. Pro adds hosted models and live transcription.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m excited to launch Pluely, an ultra-light (~10 MB), open-source, always-on, always-invisible desktop AI companion. It sits as a translucent overlay on any window, ready for one-click activation, and runs entirely locally using your own API keys. No telemetry, no data leaks—just pure productivity.
Here’s what Pluely can do:

🎤 Microphone Audio Capture
• Instant voice-to-text with built-in VAD (Voice Activity Detection).
