What happened to Airlight?
discontinued
The URL on file (https://www.airlight.pro/) did not
respond across three consecutive checks; the streak completed on
2026-09-21.
Airlight is a lightweight browsing tool designed to provide access to frequently used web applications on any screen, simulating the functionality of the spotlight search feature on a Mac.
This tool allows users to open or hide the tool interface using 'option + space' keys, eliminating the need to switch between multiple browser tabs or applications.
Airlight includes a default search functionality leveraging 'perplexity'. It also facilitates coding by providing seamless access to 'chatgpt' without disrupting the coding process.
Airlight is available as a one-time purchase and it offers a 7-day free trial. Although primarily designed to access frequent web applications like chatgpt, perplexity, GitHub, Twitter, among others, it does not fully replace your browser but rather enhances productivity by reducing the need for multiple tabs.
Airlight supports MacOS 10.3+ (both Intel and Arm64), maintaining a privacy-first approach, as it does not store any user data on its servers beyond email address and name required for license purposes.

How this was decided
Not an editorial call. The URL on file failed three consecutive
checks, with a confirmation re-probe before the streak counted (a
bot-wall response never counts as one), and the 3-miss rule marks the listing
discontinued automatically. If the URL responds again, the
registry restores it on its own: warn first, then
active. Both directions are recorded as events.
