FACT SHEET

Product        Desmaptic: AI Macropad for Mac. Buttons and live widgets for anything, on iPhone and
               iPad, built by your AI.

What it is     An iPhone and iPad app plus a free Mac agent in the menu bar. Buttons press key combinations,
               run zsh scripts and AppleScript, launch apps, run Shortcuts, open URLs, type text snippets and
               switch pages — or show live data that updates on its own.

AI             A built-in MCP server. Claude Desktop, Claude Code and ChatGPT / Codex connect with one click in
               the agent; Cursor, Windsurf and any other MCP client take a config copied from it. An AI can build
               whole pages. Every change it sends through Desmaptic arrives on the phone as a review card with the
               full code and applies only after Accept. Through Desmaptic, an AI can't press your buttons or
               delete them.

Gallery        34 ready-made widgets; pages of shortcuts for 35 Mac apps, such as Xcode, VS Code, Figma, Slack
               and Spotify; 3 full-page scenes: Mac Town, Visualizer and Aquarium.

Grid           4 × 8 buttons on iPhone, 6 × 8 on large screens: iPad and the unfolded iPhone Duo. A button
               can span several cells.

Privacy        No account, no Desmaptic server, no analytics. Phone and Mac talk directly over the local network
               through an encrypted connection, paired once with a 6-digit code. The deck syncs through the
               user's own iCloud.

Requirements   iPhone or iPad with iOS or iPadOS 17 or later; a Mac with macOS 15 or later running the free
               agent; both on the same Wi-Fi network. A Mac serves one phone at a time.

Price          Mac agent: free. iPhone and iPad app: free with 2 profiles of 2 pages each, with every button
               type, live widgets and AI apps included. Desmaptic Pro — monthly, yearly or a one-time Lifetime
               purchase through the App Store — unlocks unlimited profiles and pages. Prices are in the
               App Store.

Languages      English, German, Spanish, French, Russian.

Availability   Mac agent: available now, notarized by Apple, updates itself. iPhone and iPad app: coming soon
               to the App Store.

Developer      Mikhail Zhukov, independent developer, Cyprus.

DESCRIPTIONS

One line
Desmaptic turns your iPhone or iPad into an AI macropad for your Mac: buttons and live widgets, built by your AI.

25 words
Desmaptic is an AI macropad for Mac on iPhone and iPad. Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client builds buttons;
you approve them on your phone.

50 words
Desmaptic turns an iPhone or iPad into an AI macropad for your Mac. Buttons press hotkeys, run scripts, launch
apps or show live numbers. Ask Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client for a page: it arrives on your phone with
every script shown, and applies only when you tap Accept.

150 words
Desmaptic turns the iPhone or iPad you already own into an AI macropad for your Mac. A free menu-bar agent runs
everything on the Mac; the phone holds the buttons: key combinations, zsh and AppleScript, Shortcuts, app
launches, text snippets — and live buttons that draw data, like a CPU ring or a countdown.

You don't have to build the deck by hand. The agent includes an MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT / Codex or any
MCP client can build whole pages. Every change it sends arrives on the phone as a card showing each script,
and applies only when you tap Accept. Through Desmaptic, an AI can't press your buttons or delete them.

There is no account and no Desmaptic server: phone and Mac talk over the local network, encrypted. The
Mac agent is free; the app is free with two profiles of two pages, and Desmaptic Pro unlocks the rest.


WHAT SETS IT APART

- Your AI builds it; you approve it on the phone. An AI app doesn't just trigger actions someone set up: it
  sends finished buttons — scripts, icons, live faces — and the phone shows every line of code before you
  tap Accept.
- Buttons that draw. A button can be a picture a script keeps current: rings, graphs, clocks, a build that
  turns red. Three scenes turn a whole page into one picture, like a neon city built from the apps on your Mac.
- No new hardware, no cloud. The iPhone or iPad you already own, no account and no Desmaptic server. A large
  screen, such as an iPad or an unfolded iPhone Duo, gets two more columns of buttons.


SHORT FAQ

Is it safe to let an AI change the deck?
Changes an AI sends through Desmaptic wait for Accept on the iPhone or iPad, with every script shown on the
card. Running a command on the Mac is off until you turn on Allow AI to Run Commands, and then you allow each
command. Through Desmaptic, an AI can't press your buttons or delete them.

Does it work away from home?
The iPhone or iPad and the Mac need to be on the same Wi-Fi network. There is no Desmaptic server to carry a tap
over the internet.

Do I need to write code?
No. Most buttons are a type you pick and set up on the phone, ready-made live widgets wait in the Gallery, and
an AI app can write the rest.

Is there a Windows or Android version?
No. Mac, iPhone and iPad only.
