macOS menu bar app

Reply to the messages
you've been putting off.

Nudge lives in your menu bar, finds your unreplied WhatsApp messages, and drafts replies that actually sound like you.

Free during beta. macOS only.

Built for people who care about their relationships but struggle with reply guilt.

The problem

Sound familiar?

The guilt spiral

The longer you wait, the harder it gets. One missed reply turns into an awkward gap that makes everything worse.

Context switching kills momentum

Opening WhatsApp means group chats, memes, and 47 unread messages. You came to reply to one person and lost 20 minutes.

Generic AI feels... generic

Auto-replies that start with "Hey! Thanks for reaching out!" fool nobody. Your replies need to sound like you.

How it works

Three steps. No friction.

01

Connect WhatsApp

Scan a QR code, just like WhatsApp Web. Your messages stay on your machine — nothing leaves your laptop.

Local processing. No cloud. No servers reading your chats.

02

Nudge finds what matters

Smart prioritization surfaces the conversations that actually need your attention, not every group chat meme.

DMs from close contacts first. Muted groups filtered out.

03

Reply in your voice

AI drafts that match your tone, length, and style. Edit, tweak, or send as-is — it's your call.

Matches your tone, length, and style from recent messages.

Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Privacy-first

Messages processed locally. No cloud storage. Your conversations never leave your machine.

Smart prioritization

Surfaces DMs from close contacts first. Filters out muted groups and business accounts.

Your voice, not AI

Drafts match your tone, length, and emoji habits based on your recent messages.

Gentle timing

Nudges you at natural breaks, not during focus time. Respects your Do Not Disturb.

Morning briefing

Start your day with a quick summary of who's waiting for a reply and why it matters.

Reconnect

Surfaces contacts you've lost touch with — people you used to talk to regularly but haven't messaged in months.

About

Built by someone who gets it.

Byron Voorbach

Founder

"I built Nudge because I had 47 unreplied messages and too much guilt to open WhatsApp. Turns out the problem isn't willpower — it's friction. So I built something to reduce it."

Early access

What beta testers are saying.

"I had 40+ unreplied messages and genuinely didn't know where to start. Nudge just showed me the three that mattered most and had drafts ready. I cleared my backlog in ten minutes."

Sarah K.

Chronic non-replier, 3 weeks into beta

"The drafts actually sound like me. I was skeptical, but it picked up that I text in lowercase with zero punctuation. First AI tool that didn't make me sound like a corporate email."

Marcus T.

Product designer, ADHD

"I used to open WhatsApp, feel overwhelmed, and close it again. Now I open Nudge instead. It's like having a gentle assistant who already did the hard part."

Priya R.

200+ unreplied messages when she started
