Glint is a macOS AI companion for studying and reading hard material. Today, getting help means alt-tabbing to a chatbot, pasting a screenshot, reading the answer, coming back and finding your place, over and over. Glint is one small window that stays at the front of your screen and tucks away to the screen edge when you don’t need it. Open it beside whatever you’re reading, ask about the part you’re stuck on, and read the explanation right next to the original. Then collapse it and keep going. A customisable 3D companion (Bao, Nori, Lumi…) keeps you company. Glint shows exactly what will be sent, and to which service, and asks before anything leaves your Mac. Tasks, companions and history are stored locally.
