Overview / Description
Highlight is a context-aware AI assistant for desktop that reads what's on your screen and provides relevant suggestions, answers, and automation without requiring you to copy-paste content into a separate chat window. The system understands on-screen context in real time—whether you're in a browser, a document editor, or a code environment—and surfaces AI assistance directly relevant to what you're working on.
Knowledge workers, developers, and writers use Highlight to reduce the friction of switching between their work and an AI assistant. Instead of copying a paragraph into ChatGPT to get a rewrite, or pasting an error message to debug code, Highlight sees what's on screen and responds to it directly. The workflow stays in one place.
Highlight operates by reading screen content, which raises data privacy considerations that users should understand before installation. Organizations with strict data governance policies should review how on-screen data is processed and whether it leaves the device. The tool currently works best with common productivity applications; support for niche or highly customized software environments may be limited.
