Problem solved

Kopya solves the friction of moving between desktop work and a separate AI chatbot. Instead of manually copying text from emails, documents, spreadsheets, or error dialogs, users can press a shortcut to ask about what is currently on screen and receive summaries, explanations, drafts, or troubleshooting answers in a desktop panel.

Use cases

• Summarize an email thread and identify follow-up actions from the on-screen message.
• Explain or summarize a document or spreadsheet without copying its contents into another app.
• Troubleshoot error messages displayed on the screen and get suggested next steps.
• Draft replies or text based on the context of an open email or document.
• Ask follow-up questions about on-screen content to better understand it.
• Quickly interpret spreadsheet formulas or data shown in a workbook.
• Use a desktop keyboard shortcut to get AI assistance while working in other applications.
