An extendable launcher that puts your tools, AI, and automations one keystroke away
Open apps, run commands, and search files from a single hotkey, with thousands of community extensions connecting the services you already use.
Chat with leading AI models, call Quick AI from any app, and let AI Extensions act on your connected tools to finish multi-step tasks.
Browse everything you have copied and insert frequently used text or addresses by simply typing a keyword.
Create shortcuts that launch URLs, run scripts, or trigger commands, and assign hotkeys or aliases to the actions you repeat most.

Document API changes automatically and ship accurate release notes
Register your API environments and the platform monitors them for changes, so nothing is missed between releases.
Output follows the OpenRelease standard, giving every release a consistent, reviewable structure instead of an ad-hoc bullet list.
Publish as HTML or email, or export structured JSON, YAML and PDF on higher tiers for downstream tooling.
Push notes to Slack, Dropbox, S3 or a wiki, or send them by email, reaching engineers, PMs and customers from one source.
