Pluely is a privacy-first desktop AI assistant that runs as an invisible always-on-top overlay, providing live meeting transcription, on-screen question answering, and automatic AI responses during calls without appearing in screen shares or recordings. Built with Tauri, React, and Rust, it supports multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok) and local CLI models, though v1 binaries are closed source despite the GPL-3.0 repository history.

Use cases

  • get real-time AI answers during job interviews without detection
  • transcribe meetings live and auto-generate suggested responses
  • ask AI about anything on my screen with an invisible overlay
  • translate conversations in real time during client calls
  • attach my resume so AI answers interview questions with my experience
  • use my own OpenAI or Claude API keys in a meeting assistant
  • hide an AI helper from screen shares and video recordings

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight (~10MB) native desktop AI overlay on macOS, Windows, or Linux
  • you want live meeting transcription with automatic AI-suggested answers
  • you want to bring your own LLM provider keys or connect a local AI CLI
  • you need the overlay to be invisible during screen shares and calls

When to avoid

  • you require fully open-source software - v1 binaries are closed source
  • you need a mobile or web-based assistant
  • your use case involves transparency about AI assistance where stealth features are inappropriate or prohibited
  • you want a self-hostable server-side solution rather than a desktop app
