Monarch
Monarch is a new kind of app that appears on top of everything you do. It's an extension of your operating system that allows you to perform a variety of tasks without switching apps or workspaces, so you always stay in flow.
If a computer is a bicycle for the mind, then Monarch is its ergonomic handlebars—it's a tool to navigate and control your computer with less effort and more efficiency.
Do standard math, calculate the time between dates, compare timezones, convert units & currencies, and more. Create variables to calculate even faster. You can even calculate annoying monthly subscription costs!
Easily access deeper macOS settings like Display, Touch ID, Wallpaper, and Keyboard. Use Commands to hide unfocused apps, lock screen, control the volume and microphone, sleep, and more — all with 1-second interactions.
Searchable clipboard history. Filter by app or content type. Rename your favorite or frequently used items.
Monarch gives you immediate access to your browser bookmarks with control over how and where each bookmark is opened by holding the ⌘ key.
Write notes anywhere, anytime with markdown with ⌘ + dot even while in fullscreen. Monarch Notes work seamlessly with apps like Obsidian and more with no artificial restrictions or limitations. All notes are saved locally on your Mac.
There's so much less information you'll have to remember once you have clipboard history. If you think you might need something later, just copy it. If it's important, rename it with ⌘ R. Beautiful visuals and blazingly fast search make it effortless to recall things by link, content, application, or even the text in screenshots.
