Snapped 2 windows — runs offline, no AI tokens.
Built for developers and power users who live in their windows. As seen on Hacker News, r/macapps & Product Hunt.
The window manager Apple forgot — minus the bloat.
“left half code, top-right terminal.” Type it, your windows snap. No mouse-dragging to screen edges.
Halves, thirds, quarters, or your own zones. Snap any window to any zone with a keystroke.
Tell GridSnap where each app belongs. Open it, it lands in its zone — every time.
“Coding”, “Writing”, “Meeting” — recall a whole multi-window arrangement in one shortcut.
Global hotkeys for every zone and preset. Your hands never leave the keyboard.
Lives in the menu bar. Parsing runs entirely on-device — no servers, no AI tokens, no tracking.

GridSnap adds plain-English layout commands and per-app auto-snap on top of the usual halves/quarters. Instead of memorizing a dozen shortcuts, you type “left half code, right half terminal” and it lays everything out at once.
No. The parser is rule-based and runs entirely on your Mac. It's instant, private, and there are no per-use AI costs — that's why we can offer it at a one-time price.
Yes. The free tier gives you 2 custom zones plus all the built-in halves, quarters, and maximize. The ₹999 / $12 lifetime unlock adds unlimited zones, layout presets, and per-app auto-snap.
