A companion for your Mac

The capybara who looks
after your breaks.

Capi lives on your windows. He rolls around, flies up with a jetpack, floats back down by parachute… and when it's time, he reminds you to take a breather, drink a glass of water and look far away.

How it works

Nothing to set up.
Just a zen capybara.

No account, no email, no dashboard. You install him, he takes care of the rest.

01

Install, that's it

Capi settles into the menu bar and sits at the bottom of your screen. He never steals your keyboard: you keep working.

02

He lives his life

Your windows become his playground. He rolls along them, climbs up with a jetpack, takes naps or a yuzu bath.

03

He looks after you

Every 50 minutes, he holds up his “Break” sign. He also thinks of water and your eyes, never during a video call.

What he does

Small, round,
and surprisingly athletic.

These are the real animations, straight from the app.

The roll

To get around, he curls into a ball and rolls along your windows. The yuzu stays perfectly balanced.

The jetpack

Window too high? He straps on his jetpack and lands softly on top, even on another screen.

The parachute

Window closed under his paws? He opens his big white sheet and floats gently back down.

The tram pole

Move the window he's sitting on: a pole pops out, he holds on and rides along.

The yuzu bath

Like the capybaras of Japanese hot springs, he sometimes treats himself to a warm bath with floating yuzus.

Discreet on calls

Zoom, Teams or FaceTime in front? He ducks behind the edge and pops back up when you're done.

Outfit · Capi Pro

Capi goes
full ninja.

Headband on, he no longer takes the stairs: he vanishes in a puff of smoke and reappears on the next window.

  • The teleport: poof, a puff of smoke, and there he is on a higher window or another screen.
  • The umbrella: a Japanese paper umbrella to float gently back down.
  • The flip: the speedy version, with a superhero landing in a cloud of dust.

Taking care of you

Take a break.
Look far away.

Once you're in the zone, you don't look up from the screen for hours. Capi never forgets. He leads by example, big, right in the middle of your screen.

  • Look 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes: the 20-20-20 rule eye doctors recommend against eye strain.
  • Never during a video call: the reminder waits until you hang up.
  • Stepped away? That was your break already, the timer starts over.
  • Each reminder can be adjusted or turned off: every 30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes.
Light as a nap

A companion,
not a snitch.

Capi checks where your windows are so he knows where to sit. Nothing more, and nothing leaves your Mac.

FAQ

Questions we get asked.

Will Capi slow down my Mac?

No. Capi is a native app that uses about 1% of one CPU core. He animates more slowly while he naps, and does almost nothing when hidden.

Will he get in the way during a video call or screen share?

When Zoom, Teams, FaceTime, Webex or Discord is in front, he hides behind the edge of the screen, and reminders wait until the call is over.

Can he see what I'm doing?

No. He only knows the position and size of your windows, so he knows where to sit. He never reads their contents or your keystrokes, and sends nothing over the internet.

I have several displays. Does it work?

Yes. Capi moves from one display to another by jetpack, or by falling if your displays are stacked. Reminders show up on the display you're looking at.

Can I hide him for a while?

Yes, from his icon in the menu bar: “Hide Capi”. You can also change his size and adjust each reminder.

What about Windows or Linux?

Capi is made for Mac only, with macOS 13 or later.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, within 14 days of buying Capi Pro, no questions asked. Just reply to the confirmation email.
