Is my agent done yet?
Switch to the terminal1 hover. Don’t check. A card drops from the notch when it finishes.
What’s my next meeting?
Open Calendar1 hover. Hover: today’s events on Home.
Skip this song.
Find Spotify or Music1 hover. Hover: controls right in the notch.

Revenue
Connect Stripe or Dodo with a read-only key and watch the day add up. Even with the notch closed, today’s total sits right beside it.
AI Usage
Claude and Codex session and weekly limits, tokens used today and when each one resets. Read on your Mac, never sent anywhere.
Agent alerts
When Claude Code or Codex finishes, or needs you, a card drops from the notch. Stop watching the terminal and get back to work.
Clipboard
Text, links, colours and code, kept in order and one click away from being pasted again.
Closed notch
The notch stays small until you need it, but it never goes blank. Pick what sits beside it: music and timers, or your agent and today’s revenue.

In development · not in the first release
Hold ⌥⌘Space, or hold the notch, and ask in plain English. Jarvis answers from NotchStack’s own tools: your revenue, AI limits, calendar, reminders, timers and music. It can also speak up when something matters, like when your agent finishes.
Listening and understanding happen on your Mac. Only the sentence Jarvis reads aloud is sent to a voice service. “Jarvis” is a working name; details may change before release.
