Crest turns the MacBook notch into a quiet panel: now playing, calendar, todos, clipboard, system stats, and a built-in Claude co-pilot you can talk to.
The notch is the one part of a MacBook screen nobody uses. Crest hangs a panel from it: hover, and it opens.
24 modules live inside. Now playing with album art, a scrubber, lyrics and a live visualizer. Calendar with one-tap meeting join, todos, Markdown notes, a Pomodoro timer. Clipboard history you can search, a file shelf that catches drops and screenshots, an app launcher, system stats, battery health, Bluetooth device batteries, audio output switching, quick toggles, notification previews, weather, world clock, screen time, translation, a color picker, and a converter calculator.
Three modes (Home, Work, Code) decide what shows up when, and they can switch themselves based on the app you're in. Crest also replaces the system volume and brightness HUDs with quiet notch versions, snaps windows, auto-shelves screenshots with a capture hotkey, and keeps media keys working on macOS 26.
The newest part is the Claude co-pilot. You can talk to your notch, by typing or voice: ask it things, tell it to open modules, and it shows you what it plans to do before doing it. Code mode goes further: it watches your live Claude Code and Codex sessions and lets you approve or deny permission prompts right from the notch, and shows your GitHub pull requests and CI.
The core is free: now playing, dashboard, file shelf, clipboard. Crest Pro unlocks the rest, $15 once, updates included. macOS 14 and up, signed and notarized.
