Mote

Mote is a floating workspace for macOS that sits above your other apps. Notes, terminals and an AI agent live in one panel you can open anywhere, so you can capture, think and act without switching context. • Notes that stay out of the way. Mote notes are plain Markdown files on your Mac, so they stay portable, easy to search and fully yours. • Built into your Obsidian vault. Search, read and write in your existing vault from anywhere, without opening Obsidian. • Everything indexed. Search across your Mote notes and your vault instantly, so past thinking is there when you need it. • Split it your way. Arrange notes, terminals and chats side by side in resizable panes, and zoom or snap the window to fit your task. • A terminal right beside your notes. Run commands next to the note you're writing, without jumping to another window. • Agent mode. Hand off real work to an AI agent that can search and edit your notes, manage panes and run commands. Every change can be undone. • Meeting mode. Transcribe meetings locally, so your conversations never leave your Mac. • YouTube mode. Take notes alongside videos as you watch. • Check-in timer. A built-in focus timer that helps you pace your work and keeps you on track. Mote turns the gap between a thought and an action into a single keystroke.
