The problem Relay is built around
Most Mac automation starts small. You want screenshots renamed, downloads filed, email text summarized, meeting notes captured or a recurring checklist prepared. Then the job grows across Finder, Mail, Notes, Calendar, Reminders and a few bits of AI.
Relay gives those jobs a canvas. You can drag steps together, use templates, or ask the AI builder to create a first version of the workflow and then inspect it before you run it.
Good fit
Freelancers, indie developers, researchers, consultants and Mac power users with repeated personal workflows.
Poor fit
Large team process automation, cloud integrations that need hosted workers, or developer-only scripting pipelines.
What makes Relay useful
Triggers that match real Mac work
Start workflows from folder changes, hotkeys, schedules, app launches and manual quick runs.
Actions that cross app boundaries
Work with files, text, screenshots, Mail, Notes, Reminders, Calendar and web requests from one workflow.
On-device AI where it belongs
Use Apple Intelligence for summarizing, extracting, classifying and fixing workflow steps without making cloud AI the default path.
A visible system you can trust
Relay is deliberately inspectable. You can see what will run, edit the steps and keep workflows as local files.
Data, price and support
Relay is built by Michael at Yuzool as independent Mac software. It is designed around local-first workflows, direct email support, clear policies and a one-time purchase model.
