Product brief

What Watchflows does.

Stop doing the same Mac chores by hand. Watchflows runs them the moment something happens: a file lands in Downloads, you press a hotkey, a webhook arrives, it's 8:30 on a weekday. Wire triggers, conditions, actions and AI on a canvas, or describe it in plain English and the Flow Builder assembles it. AI reads, renames and decides mid-flow, on Watchflows AI, Apple's on-device model, Ollama, or your own keys. Local-first, no account. 14-day free trial, then $49 once. Also on Setapp.
