Sider Omni Brings Agents Inside Every Mac App.
Sider Omni is a native macOS agent that docks to any app window, understands on-screen context, and performs actions without copy-pasting or switching apps. It supports multiple models, including GPT-6 Astra, and can use existing ChatGPT or Codex credits. [Product page](https://sider.ai/lab/sider-omni)
Sider Omni’s strongest idea is contextual continuity: the agent stays attached to the work instead of forcing users to move work into a chatbot.
- –Window-specific agents could make spreadsheets, email, presentations, and research genuinely interactive.
- –Computer-use capabilities let users refine results in place, such as creating and revising charts directly in Numbers.
- –Multiple model support avoids locking users into one provider and lets them balance quality, speed, and cost.
- –Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions are powerful but introduce trust and privacy friction for sensitive work.
- –The launch positions Sider against ChatGPT and Claude desktop apps by emphasizing persistent per-window context. [Product Hunt listing](https://www.producthunt.com/products/sider-omni)
