a little cat that lives on your desktop

Katto sits with you while you work. It keeps your day, your focus and your files in order, calms things down when it's all too much, and does zoomies when your AI helpers finish.

katto's own moves

it notices what you do

Recorded straight from the app. Every coat, every cat.

when you type

a tiny typewriter

Its own paws tap the keys, the paper fills line by line, and the carriage slides home with a ding.

when you're on a roll

flow

Type fast and its tail poofs, its eyes go big, and gold sparkles gather. Afterwards: a slow blink, maybe a sip of water.

a ball of yarn

Scroll down and it rolls away, unwinding. Scroll up and it rewinds. The companion bats it back.

when you pick it up

carried by the scruff

Paws dangling, it swings with you and lands on its feet. Shake it, and it's dizzy for a moment.

a guided stretch: reach, lean, roll, breathe
every hour or so

a stretch, together

Reach out, lean forward, roll your shoulders, one deep breath. It shows you, one step at a time.

zoomies

A wiggle, a lap around its friend, a skid and a proud sit. Long jobs get two laps.

Katto's list under a night sky
everything katto does

small, kind, and surprisingly handy

Built so the app asks less of you on hard days, never more.

works with your ai helpers

it knows when they're busy, done, or need you

Katto listens to the coding agents on your computer and tells you, gently, what they're up to.

thinking alongLittle dots while an agent works, and a name tag so you know which one.
needs youThe tag turns red and the companion hops. Tap it to jump straight to that app.
doneZoomies, a meow and a note. After a long job, the two cats boop noses.
while you were awayBack at your desk? One line tells you what finished and who's waiting.
focus comes firstDuring a focus block, the good news waits. "Needs you" still gets through.
one switch eachTurn any helper off and the cats ignore it. Uninstalling cleans up after itself.
katto's promises

gentle by design

yours stays yoursYour list, notes and files stay on your computer. Nothing is uploaded to us.
never pushyNo streaks to break, no scores. It speaks up as much as you want, or not at all.
calm when neededLow-stim mode, reduced motion, hush. Every move can be switched off.
undo everythingEvery tidy can be put back. Clean-ups go to the Recycle Bin, never straight away.
