GOOD IDEAS DESERVE MOMENTUM.AI-generated illustration
THE WORK BETWEEN THE WORK

You have the idea.
Give it a clear path forward.

The prompt to explain. The reference to find. The decision to remember. Bring them into the same flow.

01

Get the thought out.

Speak the rough version while it’s fresh.

02

Give it direction.

Shape it with your project’s audience and constraints.

03

Build on what you know.

Return to the notes and decisions you’ve kept.

ONE IDEA. THREE WAYS TO SHAPE IT.

A vague request.
A much clearer result.

BEFORE

“Write a launch email.”

The idea is there.
The audience, goal and tone aren’t.

AFTER / CONTEXT INCLUDED

Write a short launch email for Northstar, aimed at solo founders. Lead with trying one task before creating an account. Keep it direct and friendly. End with one invitation to try it.

EXAMPLE AI OUTPUT

Try Northstar. Sign up later.

Hi Alex,

You can now try one task in Northstar before creating an account. See how it fits your work, then decide whether to sign up.

Give it a try.

Same saved context. Different prompt depth. Select a mode to compare.

Illustrative prompts and outputs, not a live generation. Actual results vary by model and saved context.

SAVE THE SPARK. FIND IT AGAIN.

Your ideas have
a place to come back to.

The reference you saved. The screen that inspired you. Search your screenshot library and bring useful material back into your work.

Keep the reference.
Keep the reason it mattered.

Save useful material, keep your project facts current, and ask Neo about what you’ve kept. Answers depend on the saved material and selected model.

A LITTLE HELP, RIGHT WHERE YOU WRITE

The thought is yours.
Make the wording work.

Clean up the grammar. Sharpen the phrasing. Review the result and carry on with what you were doing.

BEFORE YOUR FIRST IDEA

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Is Stilou an AI coding tool?+

Stilou connects dictation, writing tools and project memory on your Mac. Use it to prepare instructions, write and keep useful context. Your coding assistant or editor does the development work.

I already use AI project memory. Why add Stilou?+

Try Stilou if you want capture, writing and reusable project context together in your Mac workflow. Compatible MCP clients can use that context once connected. If your existing setup already covers those needs, you may not need another app.

Does it automatically know everything about my project?+

No. What Stilou can use depends on what you save, the project you select and your settings. Add useful facts and review them as decisions change. AI-generated prompts and answers still need checking.

What leaves my Mac?+

Your library is stored locally. Supported Private-mode processing runs on-device. Connected model requests and cloud context sharing can send relevant content off your Mac. See the dedicated privacy page ↗ for the different paths.

What happens after the trial?+

After the 14-day full trial, Free remains available with usage limits across tools, including dictation, grammar, rewrites and prompting. Paid checkout is coming soon.

Which computers can use Stilou?+

Stilou is a Mac app requiring macOS 13 or later. Local-model performance and feature availability depend on your hardware and settings.
