Local-first AI · Windows 10 / 11
Sees your screen only when you ask. Suggests — you decide.
Glance AI is a private, screen-aware copilot for Windows. Press a hotkey, hand it a screenshot or a question, and get a copy-ready answer from a model running on your own PC. It reads and suggests — it never acts.
The difference
AI agents want your keyboard. Glance AI only wants your question.
Watching, clicking, sending
- Continuous or scheduled screen recording in the background
- Your screen streams to cloud servers for processing
- Clicks, types, and sends on your behalf — mistakes act on your PC
- Accounts, subscriptions, telemetry
Reading and suggesting
- Captures your screen only when you press the button or hotkey
- Runs against a model on your own PC by default
- Never clicks, sends, or changes anything — you copy what helps
- The worst case is a bad suggestion you ignore
Two minutes
A hotkey away, whenever you need it
A small, hideable window that stays out of your way until you call it.
Run a local model
Start a model server on your PC — Ollama or llama.cpp with a vision model works great. Or point it at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint you trust.
$ ollama pull gemma4:12b
Press the hotkey
The panel appears over your work. Stage a capture of the active window, attach an image, or just type — nothing is sent until you press Send.

Copy what helps
Drafted replies, explanations of what's on screen, your saved info as copy-ready chips. You paste and act — it never does.
Copy → paste. That's the deal.
What it does
A copilot with boundaries
Explicit capture only
A screenshot is taken when you press the button or hotkey — never in the background. Staged captures are removable, and nothing is sent until you hit Send.
Local by default
Talks to a model server on your own PC. Your captures, questions, and voice go to that local process — or only to an endpoint you deliberately configure.
Reads, never acts
No clicking, no sending, no file access, no system changes. Every consequential step is a human copy-paste — yours.
Saved info, encrypted
Keep your address, emails, and phone numbers as copy-ready chips — DPAPI-encrypted on your PC and included in a request only when you ask.
Clipboard hygiene
Sensitive copies are kept out of Windows clipboard history and cloud sync, and auto-clear after a countdown you control.
Ephemeral by design
Conversations live in memory and vanish when you close the app. Captures are never written to disk unless you opt into the debug option.
Private by architecture
We can't see your screen. That's the point.
BroMind operates no servers and receives nothing — no telemetry, no analytics, no accounts, no crash reports. Your data goes only where you point it.
Your screen is yours. Keep it that way.
Glance AI is coming to the Microsoft Store. Until then, this page is its official home.
