UltraNotch

Everything you keep checking, one glance up.

Music, your day, AI limits, sales and views live in your Mac’s notch. Point at it and it opens. Move away and it’s gone.

The Home page in the notch: a song playing, today’s events, reminders and AI limits.

Quiet until it matters.

When something happens, the notch grows just enough to tell you, then settles back into the bezel.

A sale of $14.00 appears beside the notch.

Know your AI limits before you hit them.

UltraNotch reads the Claude and Codex sign-ins already saved on your Mac, once you allow it, and shows every account’s session and weekly limits. It warns you when you’re on pace to run out, and adds up what today’s usage would cost.

AI Usage with three accounts: Claude at 62% of its session left, two Codex accounts, and today’s cost of $48.20.

Hear about every sale first.

Connect Stripe, Shopify, Etsy or your own shop. New sales show up in the notch with what was bought and for how much, along with a chime you can turn off.

Sales for today: four orders adding up to about $73.80.

Every platform. Every brand. One glance.

See a day, a week or a month of views across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X and Threads, against the period before. Run more than one brand? Switch between them in a click. Views come from your accounts connected in Tracer.

Creator for the brand Northwind: 237K views in 24 hours, up 22%, led by TikTok.

Your day, opened where you are.

Today’s events sit on a timeline that opens at the current time, with a line showing where you are, right beside the month.

Calendar with October’s month view and today’s timeline at 14:10.

The week’s sky, in a hover.

Temperature, rain, UV and wind, graphed hour by hour for the next seven days. Point at the graph to read any hour.

Weather for Cupertino: 24 degrees and mostly clear, with the week ahead and an hourly temperature graph.

And it keeps going.

Your keys stay in your Keychain.

There’s no UltraNotch account, no analytics and no ads. Sign-ins and API keys stay in your Mac’s Keychain, and macOS asks you before UltraNotch reads one saved by another app. Each feature talks only to the service it needs, like your AI provider, your store or the weather service. Ask Ultra can answer entirely on device with Apple Intelligence.
