安装 / 开始使用
9 to 16 MB installer Hidden from screen shares and recordings Launches in under 100ms, answers in a tap A fraction of Electron alternatives No meeting bot, no participant, no trace Global hotkeys summon it from inside any app Minimal CPU and RAM, even live Can hide from the Dock and taskbar too Streaming answers, live transcription 💬 Ask mode Type a question, dictate it with push-to-talk, or let Pluely see your screen: capture it, drag-select a region, attach files, or turn on Use image so every message carries a fresh screenshot.
Documents go through built-in OCR and stay in context for follow-up questions. Answers stream in as Markdown, and everything is saved locally where you can search, export, or delete it.
🎧 Listen mode Hit Start and Pluely transcribes your mic and system audio live, with speaker labels and language selection. Automatic responses fire when someone asks a question, after every pause, or only when you tap Suggest.
Smart follow-up chips appear under each answer, generated from the actual conversation. Every session is saved as a meeting with its full transcript. 🧰 What else is in the box

com covers every feature, setting, and edge case, with per-OS guides where platforms differ: Start here Features Help Quickstart Listen mode FAQ macOS permissions Auto responses Shortcuts not working Windows permissions Stealth & privacy Connect a CLI Linux permissions Keyboard shortcuts Supported models Why Pluely v1 is closed source Pluely started fully open, first under MIT and later under GPL-3.
The code was lifted and sold as rebranded commercial products almost from day one, and moving to GPL-3 changed nothing: the clones ignored the license entirely. I filed complaints and takedown requests and nothing came down.
Chasing license violators across countries costs more time and money than one developer has, and even code I shared privately in good faith ended up misused. So from v1, a complete rewrite, Pluely ships as signed binaries only.
The old GPL-3 code stays available under its license in this repo's history. Please don't ask for source access; the answer will be a polite no until I decide otherwise.
What doesn't change: the free plan stays free, releases ship right here, issues stay open for bug reports, and your data stays on your device. 📋 Prerequisites Pluely installs like any normal desktop app.
On Linux you need the WebKitGTK runtime that Tauri apps use, see Tauri's prerequisites page for your distro. macOS and Windows need nothing extra: grant the screen and microphone permissions on first run and you're set.

Versions that were published under the GPL-3 remain available under that license in this repository's history. 🙏 Acknowledgments

- 200+ hosted models on Pro plans: GPT, Gemini, Claude, Llama and more, searchable and switchable mid-conversation, no API keys to manage.
- Free forever with your own keys : connect any LLM or speech-to-text provider through a curl template, or plug in the AI CLIs you already have (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Qwen Code, Ollama). No limits from us; it's your account.
- Real stealth : excluded from screen capture, absent from recordings and screenshots, never steals focus from the app you're in, and the icon can disappear from the Dock or taskbar . Details in Stealth & privacy .
- Keyboard-first : global hotkeys for summon, capture, and listening; single keys scroll the answer and transcript once the overlay has focus. Full reference: Overlay shortcuts .
- Private by architecture : chats, meetings, transcripts, and files live in a local SQLite database on your machine. Your own provider keys stay local. Your conversations never train anything.
- Custom prompts with knowledge files , a document library, plan and usage meters, and identical builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
