Raycast, the team behind the keyboard launcher power users swear by, just shipped Glaze. You describe the app you want in plain language, and the AI builds a real desktop app — icon in your dock, launches instantly, no browser tab pretending to be software.
What it actually is
Not a code generator that hands you a repo. Glaze produces a native Mac app that runs offline and reaches into your machine: local files, CLIs, keyboard shortcuts, menu bar, background processes. It can also hit any external API or pull in AI models, so a two-sentence prompt can become a working tool wired to the services you already use. Don’t like a button? Keep chatting, or point-and-annotate the exact element to change. Ship it to the public store or keep it private for your team.
Why it’s worth watching
“Natural language builds apps” usually means a hosted web toy. Glaze lands it on the desktop with real system access, running Claude Code and OpenAI’s Codex under the hood. CEO Thomas Paul Mann and Chris Messina drove the launch to Product Hunt #1. Mac-only for now — macOS Tahoe, Apple Silicon — with Windows and Linux promised. Free to start, paid tier above that.
