Why I Built GenieBar

Jack Temple, Creator

I got sick of spawning 'temporary' ChatGPT tabs just to ask life‑or‑death questions like "How long do I nuke a Hot Pocket?" Every new window torched my focus and cluttered my desktop.

So I wrote GenieBar: hit one hotkey, talk to any model, keep your API keys and chat history on your own Mac. No subscriptions, no telemetry, no browser detours. Just instant AI, right where it belongs.
