Under the hood

Simple to use. Smart inside.

Everything runs locally on your computer. No cloud. No account. No monthly fee.

1
You press a key
Hit Ctrl+Shift+E or say "Hey Wise" — works from anywhere on your computer.
2
Screen is captured
A snapshot of your screen is taken instantly. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
3
AI reads the screen
A local vision model (Moondream / LLaVA via Ollama) analyzes what it sees.
4
You hear & see it
A large popup explains what's on screen. A calm voice reads it aloud simultaneously.
Why ScreenWise

Built differently, on purpose.

🔒
Fully Offline
The AI model runs entirely on your computer. Your screen never leaves your device. No API keys, no subscriptions, no internet required after setup.
Privacy first
🗣️
Voice In & Out
Say "Hey Wise" to trigger it hands-free. The response is read aloud using Windows speech — perfect for users with vision difficulties.
Accessible
⚠️
Scam Detection
The AI is tuned to flag suspicious popups, fake virus alerts, and phishing pages — the exact things that trick non-tech users into losing money.
Safety
📖
Plain English Only
Responses are capped at 60 words. No "navigate to the browser settings", no "clear your DNS cache". Just: click here, do this.
No jargon
⚡
Instant Trigger
One keyboard shortcut from anywhere — no need to open an app, find a window, or type a question. It just works.
Zero friction
