Prism: A native macOS AI assistant (Multi-provider, Browser Automation, System-wide Writing)

完整上下文原始内容 · Reddit

Problem I built Prism to solve I built Prism to solve the friction of constantly switching to browser tabs to use AI. Web-based AI tools break your flow and lack proper OS integration. Prism is a native macOS AI assistant designed to feel like a real Mac app instead of another browser tab. It handles multi-provider chat, Quick AI, browser automation, system-wide writing help, file creation, image generation, and even study tools like quizzes and flashcards, all with local-first privacy controls. Comparison Compared to other AI wrappers or tools like BoltAI or TypingMind, Prism goes far beyond a simple menu bar chat window. While those apps are great for basic AI messaging, Prism acts as a deep OS-level productivity suite. It offers unique features like native browser automation, file creation, and built-in study tools that competitors lack. I am shipping frequent updates based on user feedback, so the app is actively improving rather than sitting as a one-off release. If you try it and something feels missing, I would genuinely like to hear what would make it better for your workflow. Pricing & Plans Prism offers flexible pricing whether you want to use the app entirely for free, bring your own API keys, or use our premium hosted models. All paid subscriptions include 2 seats. Prism Free (Permanent): $0/mo (Basic app access, 10 AI requests per day across your own keys and local models). Prism (Standard): $3/mo (Full app access, local proxy to route IDEs/CLIs, web overlay, and 2 seats. Hosted AI added separately), Includes 3 day free trial. Prism Plus: $15/mo (Full app access + ~350 messages of hosted AI usage included on GPT-5.6, Claude, or Gemini and many other providers). Student Yearly: $10/yr (Full app access for students with a verified .edu email, hosted AI added separately). Lifetime License: $60 one-time (Permanent app access. Use your own keys/local models, or add hosted AI usage packs a-la-carte). Standard and Plus plans have yearly options as well with 2 months free. LAUNCH PROMO Launch Special: The first 15 lifetime-license buyers get $60 in GPT-5.6 credits, which includes 8M Terra and 2M Sol tokens. Purchase by Sep 1; credits are active through Sep 5. This makes the license effectively pay for itself on day one. Future Updates Upcoming: iOS, Android, and Windows apps for others who do not have a Mac. Transparency & Trust: I am the sole developer behind Prism. I'm a student developer and you can verify my identity on my LinkedIn Profile or see my work on my GitHub Profile. You can also review Prism's Privacy Policy & Terms on our website. Link: https://prism-app.tech Only one spot left! Use Code: SPECIAL25OFF to get 25% off on the license!

Osaurus is a fantastic open-source project, and Prism's background Agent mode actually draws direct inspiration from its accessibility-driven perception approach. The key difference is that Osaurus is built as a dedicated computer-use harness to take over your screen and automate desktop actions, whereas Prism is designed as a daily, system-wide productivity companion. In Agent mode, Prism uses macOS Accessibility APIs and AppleScript instead of continuous screen recording, making it faster, more precise, and highly private since it never captures screenshots of your desktop. Beyond automation, Prism is built for everyday workflows, allowing you to use top-tier models without developer API keys via Prism Hosted models or a native Web Overlay (letting you log into existing ChatGPT Plus/Claude Pro web subscriptions), perform system-wide writing actions and OCR, generate and edit documents with inline diffs, run local GGUF models offline, and use tools like a companion code editor (PrismCode) and CLI (with companion apps for iOS, watchOS, Android, and Windows currently in development).

Thank you ! Im closer and closer to buy it lol Can I also connect deepseek api? It is much cheaper than claude

I completely agree, AI fatigue is so real right now. That's why I built Prism to go beyond simple chat wrappers. It lets you use your existing web subs (ChatGPT/Claude Pro) in a native overlay, edit local files via inline diffs, and run GGUF models offline.

My rule of thumb: If you want to know if a macos app is a vibecoded piece of trash, just take a look at how they design their settings page.

u/beingskyler回复

This is a way better heuristic than what I've historically done which is checking if their Help docs in-app are non-existent or not.

u/I_Like_Tartar_Sauce回复

Can you elaborate? I’m genuinely curious.

u/Specialist_Farm_5752回复

it isnt, but as a dev settings pages are the easiest to be neglected and just slop your way out of it

How does this compare to Lekh ai pro? Tell me more about built-in study tools.

u/D-SINGH-011

Can I ask what tools you used to make the video for the app?

u/Most_Impression_6923

Love your marketing video!! Did you commission it?

Browser automation is the piece that actually differentiates this, and also the piece most likely to break silently. How are you driving it, Accessibility APIs, a CDP connection, or injected extension? Each one fails differently and users will blame the app, not Safari.
