Features

Invisibility Mode

Pluely operates with complete stealth during sensitive scenarios. The application features a translucent overlay window that sits above all other applications, making it invisible in video calls, screen shares, and recordings. The window is designed to be screenshot-proof and undetectable in meeting platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Slack Huddles. When sharing your screen or recording, Pluely remains invisible to your audience while providing you with real-time AI assistance.

System Audio Capture

Capture and transcribe system audio in real-time. The system audio feature allows you to record audio directly from your computer's output, perfect for meetings, presentations, or any audio playing on your system. The captured audio is processed through your selected speech-to-text provider and can be automatically sent to the AI for analysis or transcription.

Keyboard Shortcut: Cmd+Shift+M (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+M (Windows/Linux)

The system audio capture includes voice activity detection, real-time audio visualization, and automatic processing status indicators. Configure your preferred audio input devices in the Audio Settings page.

Voice Input

Record your voice and convert it to text using advanced speech-to-text providers. The voice input feature supports multiple STT providers including OpenAI Whisper, ElevenLabs, Groq Whisper, and custom providers. Voice activity detection automatically identifies when you're speaking and processes your audio accordingly.

Keyboard Shortcut: Cmd+Shift+A (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+A (Windows/Linux)

Voice input can be used in the main overlay window or within chat conversations for hands-free interaction with AI.

Screenshot Capture

Capture screenshots and send them to AI for visual analysis. Pluely offers two screenshot modes:

Screenshot Mode: Capture the entire screen with a single click. The full screen is captured instantly and can be processed by AI.

Selection Mode: Click and drag to select a specific area of your screen to capture. This mode allows precise control over what you want the AI to analyze.

Keyboard Shortcut: Cmd+Shift+S (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+S (Windows/Linux)

Processing Modes:

Manual Mode: Screenshots are captured and automatically added to your attached files. You can capture multiple screenshots and submit them later with your own prompt. This gives you full control over when and how screenshots are sent to the AI.

Auto Mode: Screenshots are automatically submitted to AI using your custom prompt. Configure a default prompt in Screenshot Settings that will be used every time a screenshot is captured. Only one screenshot can be submitted at a time in auto mode, providing instant AI analysis without manual intervention.

Configure your preferred screenshot mode and processing behavior in the Screenshot Settings page.

File Attachments

Attach files to your AI conversations for analysis, review, or context. Pluely supports attaching multiple files at once, allowing you to send documents, images, code files, or any text-based content to the AI. Files are displayed as chips with file type indicators and can be removed individually or cleared all at once.

Drag and drop files directly into the input area, or use the file attachment button to browse and select files from your system. Attached files are processed and sent alongside your text prompt to provide context for AI responses.

Pluely Dashboard

The Pluely Dashboard provides comprehensive access to all features and settings through an intuitive sidebar navigation. Access the dashboard using the keyboard shortcut Cmd+Shift+D (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+D (Windows/Linux).
