Skills

Works in any app. Skills make it way better.

Always up-to-date knowledge — straight from each app's official docs (beyond the AI's training cutoff), so answers stay accurate and current.
Guided courses — turn learning into step-by-step lessons with progress tracking. Skilly can coach you from beginner to pro, check what you're doing, and move to the next lesson when you're ready.

Inside the app

Inside the app — check your remaining hours, see usage this period, and manage your subscription from the menu bar.

Or — bring your own key

Free with your own OpenAI key.

Skilly is open source under Apache-2.0. Paste your OpenAI API key in Settings → Account → API Key and the 15-minute trial gating disappears. You pay OpenAI directly at roughly $0.06–0.10 per minute of voice. No subscription, no card on file with Skilly.

Most useful if you already have an OpenAI account, want full cost control, or want to audit / fork the code. The hosted $19/mo tier exists for convenience — no key to manage, no per-minute surprises, beta price locked for life on the first 50 seats.

Subscription happens inside the app after your free trial, via Polar.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What happens if I cancel?

You keep using Skilly until the end of your billing month. Then it simply stops — no extra charges. Resubscribe anytime at the beta price — we lock that price in for life on your account.

Is it safe? What data does Skilly send to OpenAI?

Yes. Audio and a live screenshot stream to OpenAI only while you’re actively talking. Nothing is saved after the session ends, and OpenAI is contractually blocked from training on Skilly sessions. Our analytics log only anonymous metrics — session length, token counts, costs — never your transcripts, screenshots, or prompts.

Why $19 / month? What am I actually paying for?

Real-time voice AI with vision is expensive to run. $19 covers 3 hours of live teaching per month across every skill — more than most users hit. Compared to one-on-one human tutoring at $50–100/hour, one month of Skilly is cheaper than a single lesson.

Can I bring my own OpenAI API key?

Coming soon. We’re adding a BYOK plan at a lower price for users with their own OpenAI Realtime credits — we’re prioritizing the build based on demand. Email hello@tryskilly.app with subject "BYOK" and we’ll notify you the moment it ships, plus lock in early-access pricing for you.

What is Skilly, exactly?

A friendly AI tutor that lives in your Mac menu bar. You talk, it sees your screen, moves the cursor to show you what to click, and speaks the answer in your language. Think of it as a patient expert sitting next to you.

How long is the free trial?

15 minutes of actual usage, one-time, tied to your email. No credit card required. Most people know inside the first session whether Skilly clicks for them.

Which apps does Skilly work with?

Any app on your Mac. Skilly works great even without a skill — Excel, Notion, your browser, a niche CAD tool, anything. With a skill (like Figma or Blender), it gets smarter: step-by-step courses and up-to-date knowledge beyond the AI’s training data. Five skills ship today; a skill builder is coming so you can make your own.

What’s a "skill"?

A skill is like an upgrade for one specific app — Skilly gets the latest instructions, shortcuts, and a full learning path so it can teach you properly. One subscription gives you every skill we release, current and future.

What happens when I hit my 3 hours?

Skilly pauses until your next billing cycle. No surprise charges. We email you at 80% and 100% so you’re never caught off guard.

Can I build my own skill?

Not yet, but we’re building a simple skill creator. Want early access? Just email hello@tryskilly.app.

Which operating systems work?

Right now: macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon Macs only. Windows, Linux, and mobile are coming — join the waitlist below to be notified.

Will the price change after beta?

Yes. Beta users keep the $19 price forever — even after we add more features. New users will see different pricing once the beta ends.
