Skilly for People

Skilly for People is a personal voice-first AI tutor for individual desktop users. It is available for macOS today and planned for Windows. Users ask out loud, Skilly sees the current screen, speaks the answer, and points at the exact interface element to use next.

[POINT: the-fix]
No more tab-switching

Stop leaving your work to search forums, scrub tutorials, and guess. Ask without breaking focus.

Answers for your screen

Skilly sees what you see, so it answers about your actual file, not a generic doc that does not match.

Shows, not just tells

The cursor moves to the exact button while it talks. You watch the step happen instead of decoding directions.

[POINT: create-a-skill]

Want to learn something new? Make a skill for it.

Do not know the app yet? That is fine. Name what you want to learn, and Skilly can turn docs and notes into a step-by-step guide you use live.

  • Lands in your library as a private skill
  • Refine it mid-lesson as you learn
  • Share by link or submit it to the public library later

[POINT: faq]

Good to know.

How long is the free trial? +

Skilly includes 15 minutes of real hosted usage with no card required. Most people know within the first session whether voice guidance and pointing is useful for them.

Which apps does Skilly work with? +

Skilly works in any app on your Mac. It can help without a skill, and app-specific skills make it better by adding lessons, vocabulary, and current documentation.

Is Skilly private? +

Skilly streams audio and screenshots only while you are asking for help. Sessions are not retained by Skilly, and OpenAI is not allowed to train on API traffic.

Can I build my own skill? +

Yes. You can create private skills for the tools you want to learn, refine them during lessons, and share or submit the best ones later.

What happens when I hit my hosted minutes? +

Hosted usage pauses until the next cycle. There are no surprise overage charges, and Skilly warns you as you approach the limit.

The expert who never gets tired of your questions.
