Odak is a keyboard-driven launcher built for how developers actually work on macOS Tahoe. Hit a hotkey, fuzzy-search any folder on your machine, and jump straight to its open window — Xcode, VS Code, terminals, browsers — or open it fresh if it isn't running.
Odak sits inside the new Tahoe glass system — real backdrop blur, soft rim-light, the same easing curves Finder uses. Not a theme. The palette is macOS material.
Five things, done well. No bloat, no AI gimmicks, no ten-minute onboarding tour.
A hotkey and a few characters gets you there. Fuzzy-match on folder name, with smart ranking that learns which projects you open most.
Xcode, VS Code, Cursor, terminals, browser tabs — grouped by project, not by app.
Stack badges, git dirty indicator, which editor owns the window — inline, every result.
Bind any command to a project. Build, deploy, open PR — run it without leaving the palette.
Reveal in Finder, copy path, open terminal here, open in editor — every action on a key.
A small, learnable set of bindings. Customize in settings — or keep the defaults, they're thoughtful.

I stopped alt-tabbing in week two. Odak just knows where everything lives now.
The git-dirty indicator in the palette alone is worth it. Zero guesswork before I switch context.
It does five things. All five are correct. I wish more tools were like this.
Try it free for two weeks. If it earns its place in your flow, pay fifteen dollars, once. You get every future release for as long as macOS has a Dock.
$EDITOR.~/code), and Odak indexes any directory containing a .git, package.json, Cargo.toml, *.xcodeproj, or similar project marker. Indexing is local, continuous, and uses ~0% CPU at idle.
