Description
A menu bar app for multi-monitor Macs. It uses your built-in camera to give keyboard focus to the screen, window or split pane you're looking at, so you can just start typing. No clicking first. It brings back the last window you used on each screen and moves the pointer there too. Camera frames stay in memory on your Mac and never leave it. Pause any time with ⇧⌘G.

Could you build this?
No It requires local real-time computer vision for gaze tracking using webcam feeds combined with low-level macOS Accessibility and CoreGraphics APIs to manage window focus and cursor control efficiently and privately.
What it would actually take: Building this requires a native macOS app (Swift/Objective-C) interfacing with AVFoundation for camera input, a fast on-device eye/gaze tracking model (CoreML / MediaPipe), and deep integration with the macOS Accessibility API (AXUIElement) and CoreGraphics (CGEvent) to detect display bounds and inject pointer/focus events without perceptible lag.
