Tine
A Mac app that lives in your notch and watches what you're doing — then, on command, takes over your cursor to actually do the task across apps, like sending a Slack message or filling out a form.

Description
Most AI assistants live in a chat window, disconnected from what's actually on your screen — you have to copy-paste context in and results out. Tine instead sits in the Mac notch and stays aware in real time of your active app, your current selection, and your last actions, so it can offer suggestions or, when you give it the go-ahead, take control of the cursor to complete a task itself: posting to Slack, drafting a note, running a bit of research, filling out a web form.
It offers inline ghost-text suggestions as you write (finishing a sentence in your own tone, similar to autocomplete), voice control that's tuned to lock onto your voice specifically rather than background noise, and on-device processing by default for privacy, with every action logged and control handed back the instant you touch the mouse yourself. It's aimed squarely at macOS users who want an assistant that acts inside their existing apps rather than a separate chat window.
💬 Our review
The short version: Tine's pitch is screen-aware automation for individuals — it sees what you're doing and can step in to finish repetitive cross-app busywork, which is a different shape of product than a chatbot or a team automation platform.
Compared to a tool like Automated or Intuned, which record and replay browser workflows for teams, Tine is built for one person's day-to-day desktop use rather than building reusable, shareable automations — closer to a smarter, more autonomous version of macOS's built-in Shortcuts or a copilot that can also act. On-device processing by default is a meaningful plus for anyone wary of sending screen content to the cloud. Note that we couldn't independently load the live product page during this review (the site blocks automated fetches), so treat pricing and exact feature details as reported by the vendor and secondary coverage rather than independently verified.
