Download for macOS
Requires macOS 13 or newer, an OpenAI API key, and Screen Recording permission.
What it does:
- Press a keyboard shortcut to capture your screen.
- Ask a question like “Explain this” or “Where do I click?”
- Get a concise answer, plus optional on-screen guidance.
Privacy:
Sasu only sends your screenshot to OpenAI when you ask a question. It doesn’t have its own server.
Your OpenAI API key is stored securely in macOS Keychain.
Why I made this:
I work in Japan and sometimes need help understanding forms, and other web pages. I got tired of taking screenshots, switching to the Finder, and dragging them into chat. The app name is 指す — 'to point.'
Release notes:
0.1.2
- Fixed a bug where some words would run together in the transcript.
- When an answer finishes while Sasu is in the background, Sasu now bounces the Dock icon instead of bringing itself to the foreground.
0.1.1
- Added double-click to expand screenshot previews.
- Improved transcript rendering so questions, answers, links, and markdown are selectable and easier to read.
- Links in answers now open in the browser, and support Copy Link.
- Suggested highlights now appear in chronological transcript order under the answer that produced them.
- Fixed Settings and About window ordering.
0.1.0
