✨ for Macs with a notch (and the ones without)

The dead space by your webcam
finally has a job.

Click the sparkle. Type a thing. Press Return. A PNG lands on your Desktop. No window to find, no tab to open, no app to alt-tab into.

Small app, few opinions

It does one thing, then gets out of the way. Nothing runs until you click the sparkle.

🎯

Lives by the notch

A transparent target sits immediately left of the camera cutout. No idle background, no clutter on the right side of your menu bar.

🖥️

No notch? No problem

On a Mac without a notch it becomes a normal menu-bar item and anchors the composer right below the icon.

🔐

Key stays in Keychain

Your OpenAI key is stored in the macOS Keychain — never in a preferences file, never in the repo.

🎨

Styles and ratios

Pick a style tag and a canvas ratio inline, or set custom dimensions, quality, and an output folder in Settings.

🌊

Follows you around

Tracks the active display and stays available across Spaces. Click away and the draft prompt is still there.

🧩

Model-agnostic inside

Ships on GPT Image 2 through the OpenAI Image API, behind a provider protocol and model catalog ready for more.

Three steps, generously counted

01

Click the sparkle ✨

02

Type what you want to see

03

Return. It's on your Desktop.

Build it yourself

Swift package, no Xcode project to open. Clone, run the script, open the app.

git clone https://github.com/dennisonbertram/get-image-now.git
cd get-image-now
scripts/build-app.sh
open "dist/Get Image Now.app"

Then open the sparkle → Settings and paste your OpenAI API key.

Reasonable questions

Can it click the notch itself?

No. The camera cutout isn't a display surface, so it can't receive clicks. The app reads the display's auxiliary top areas and puts a 46-point target immediately to the notch's left — which is the next best thing and, honestly, easier to hit.

Does it phone home?

It talks to the OpenAI Image API with your key and nothing else. See PRIVACY.md.

Does it cost anything?

The app is free and open source. Image generation bills to your own OpenAI account, at whatever GPT Image 2 costs that day.

Where do the images go?

Desktop by default. Change the output folder in Settings.
