Nocto turns your MacBook's notch into a small control center. Hover to see what's playing and skip songs. Ten minutes before a call it starts a countdown, and when the meeting begins the notch opens with a Join button (Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, FaceTime). Park files on the shelf, find anything you copied in clipboard history, and check your Mac and AirPods battery at a glance. Native, light, macOS 14+. One-time purchase, 7-day free trial. Music stays free forever.
The notch is the one part of my MacBook I look at all day, and it did absolutely nothing. Meanwhile I kept joining calls late because the reminder was buried under a dozen windows.
So I built Nocto. It turns the notch into a small control center:
📅 Meetings: a countdown 10 min before each call, then the notch opens with a Join button (Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex, FaceTime)
🎵 Music: see what's playing, swipe to skip, scroll to seek
📁 Shelf + clipboard: park files on the notch, and get back anything you copied (text, links, colors, screenshots)
🔋 Battery and AirPods at a glance
Fully native, light, macOS 14+. No subscription: one purchase covers 3 Macs, with a 7-day free trial. Music stays free forever.
🎁 PH community: code PRODUCTHUNT takes 30% off this week.

Who hunted Nocto?
Nocto was hunted by Yersultan Sabyrkhanov. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
