Help that lives where you look.

Ask out loud. Helpy points at the real button, draws on your apps, and runs agents for you.

How it helps

Ask. It shows you.

One Helpy. Two places to live.

Pick one in Settings, or here. The whole page follows your choice.

Background agents

Say a task. It gets done.

Agents plan, browse, fill in forms and save files while you keep working. They always ask first.

The plan card: one agent ready to start, with its tools and a Start button

You see the plan first

Nemotron Ultra turns one sentence into agents. Nothing starts until you press Start.

An agent card showing it is closing a cookie banner in a real browser

It works in the background

Searching with Tavily and driving a real browser, while a copy of Pip waits in the dock.

An agent asking for approval before typing into a website

It asks before it acts

Typing into a site, sending, deleting: all of it waits for your OK.

A finished agent card with a table of three desks and a saved CSV

You get the result

A table, the CSV it saved, next steps, and every file change undoable in one click.

The agent panel with a timeline of every step, tokens and cost

Every step on record

The agent panel shows each run with its timeline, tokens and cost.

The approval inbox with an editable Notion page waiting for approval

One inbox for approvals

Everything waiting for you, across agents, editable before you approve.

Much more than a chat box.

Circle to explain

The screen freezes. Draw around anything and Helpy explains it, labels the parts, copies the text or translates it.

Teaches on your screen

Shapes, labels, formulas, a reference picture and a chart, drawn over the real app.

Settings listing three notes Helpy remembers, each with Edit and Forget

Remembers you

Short notes, merged so nothing repeats. Edit or forget any.

A plan card for building a pomodoro timer app with Claude Code

Builds apps

"Build me a pomodoro timer" makes it in its own folder and opens it.

The Skills panel with six ready-made tasks

Skills and triggers

Save a request as a skill. Run it every weekday at 8, in 20 minutes, or when files land in a folder.

Connects everything

Gmail, Calendar, Notion, Slack, GitHub and any MCP server.

Passwords in its screenshots

Password managers and fields are blanked. Spending limits live in Rust, and every file change can be undone.

Bring your own model

Works with the models you already use.

Keys stay in your system keychain. Offline mode keeps everything on your computer.

Download

Get Helpy.

Free for macOS, Windows and Linux. Installers are on the Releases page.

macOS

Macs with Apple Silicon (M1 or later). Open the .dmg and drag Helpy into Applications.

Download .dmg

First launch: the build isn't signed, so macOS says it can't verify Helpy. Open it once, then click Open Anyway in System Settings → Privacy & Security. If macOS says the app is damaged, run this in Terminal:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Helpy.app

Windows

Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. Run the installer.

Download .exe

First launch: the build isn't signed, so SmartScreen may warn you. Click More info → Run anyway.

Linux

64-bit, X11 (Wayland is best effort). Make the AppImage executable and run it.

Download .AppImage
