Built for developers

Everything you need from a terminal, and a few things you didn't know you wanted.

🎤

Voice Input

Speak commands into the terminal with Apple's native speech recognition. Hold-to-talk or press-to-toggle with configurable hotkeys. On-device processing available.

📁

File Explorer

Browse project files in a sidebar with source-list styling. Toggle position, drag files to insert paths, and switch workspaces instantly from the dropdown.

Grid Layouts

Split your terminal into flexible grids from 1×1 to 6×6. Choose any layout — 2×2, 3×1, 1×4 — from the interactive grid picker in the toolbar.

🖱

Drag & Drop

Drop files onto the terminal to insert escaped paths. Drop or paste images to save as temp files and insert the path automatically.

🌗

Adaptive Theming

Terminal colors automatically adjust to match macOS light and dark mode. Crisp contrast, always readable, zero configuration.

Native macOS

Built with AppKit — not Electron. Standard keyboard shortcuts, context menus, Reveal in Finder, toolbar customization. Feels like it belongs.
