ScreenSense

An AI workspace concierge for remote workers with multiple monitors that watches which apps you actually use, suggests optimal window placement per task, dims side displays during deep focus, and nudges you to take eye-strain breaks based on real screen time, not a timer.

Target user

knowledge workers and video editors running dual- or triple-monitor setups from home

Features
  • Task-aware layout presets (e.g., 'Editing,' 'Meetings,' 'Writing') that snap windows and shift focus between displays automatically
  • Ambient dimming on side monitors during full-screen focus apps with smooth fades
  • Per-app screen-time dashboard with personalized eye-strain break reminders calibrated to your monitor's brightness and ambient light
  • One-click 'plug in laptop' routine that re-arranges everything when you dock at your desk
