Your workspace, set before you ask.

Workflo automatically arranges the windows on your Mac. It opens the apps you need, moves and resizes every window the way you set it, and clears the rest. Before a call, before a focus block, and every time you dock or undock.

The call is ten minutes out. Your setup is already open and arranged. You never touched a button.

Ready before you are.

How it works

Workflo is a macOS menu-bar app for workspace automation: it opens the apps you need, arranges every window, and clears the rest, on its own, from your calendar, the clock, and display changes.

It stages your setup

Workflo watches your clock and calendar. Before a call or a focus block, it opens the apps that aren't running, places every window, and clears the rest. The whole workspace, not just the windows you left open.

It never surprises you

A cancelable countdown fires first. Nothing moves until you let it, and you can always summon a Scene yourself with a hotkey.

It puts everything back

Change your displays and every window returns to its exact position in under a second. Dock, undock, plug in a monitor: Workflo already knows the Desk you're on.

Everything else waits to be asked.
Workflo doesn't.

Other tools make arranging windows faster, but only the moment you reach for them. Workflo removes the reaching: your workspace is staged before the moment arrives. And a Scene isn't a window move. It opens the apps that aren't running, places them, and clears the rest, while the tools in this space act only on the windows you already have open.

A closer look.

Features

Triggers

Apply a Scene at a set time, or in the minutes before a calendar event with a video link. A cancelable countdown fires first, as long or short as you set it: automation you can always veto.

Scenes

A Scene opens the apps that aren't running, places every window, and clears the rest. Named per Desk: writing, review, monitoring.

Scene Studio

Design your own Scenes on a drag-and-resize canvas, with support for dual-monitor setups. Nothing moves until you apply.

Stash ⌥⇧S

Hide every window with one press. Press again and the whole Desk returns, exactly as it was.

Launch placement

Newly launched apps open at their remembered position, not wherever macOS feels like putting them.

Per-app rules

Ignore an app entirely, or always restore its size. Quiet control for the apps that need it.

Yours, and only yours.

Privacy policy →

Never records your screen

Workflo only needs Accessibility permission. Other tools rely on Screen Recording to show previews, Workflo does that & more, without peeking.

No account, no cloud

Nothing to sign up for. Your Desks, Scenes, and rules live as plain JSON in a folder you can open, back up, or delete.

Calendar only if you ask

Access is requested the moment you add a calendar trigger, never before. Events are read on your Mac to time it.

One key to clear the desk.

Stash hides everything for that screen-share or that moment of focus, and brings it all back, untouched, when you're ready.
