From testers

The interface was simple to navigate, the explanations were clear, and Test Me made it easy to recap what I learned.

Sharice Gustian, private beta tester

Setup was smooth. The floating Island feels distinctive, and the explanation depth controls make learning feel genuinely tailored.

Questions

Short answers.

What is Unvibe?

Unvibe is a desktop AI learning layer for code. It lives beside your editor: select code, choose a depth, and get an explanation that stays open while you work. It also helps you save notes, track concepts, and turn real projects into study material. It is not a course platform or another chat window.

Is Unvibe a code generator?

No. Unvibe does not write features for you. AI agents can write the code; Unvibe helps you understand, review, and remember it.

Which applications will it support?

The Mac app is designed to work beside tools you already use, including Cursor, VS Code, GitHub, Claude Code, Terminal, and other editors where you can select code. Some integrations are still planned or in development and are labeled that way on the site.

What code is sent to AI providers?

Unvibe is not an offline processor. When you request an explanation, the selected code and limited surrounding context you approve leave the machine after a local secret scan. They go to Unvibe’s backend, which calls the configured cloud model (OpenRouter free chat models by default, or Anthropic/Gemini if those keys are set). If you paste your own provider key in Settings, that request stays on your Mac and goes only to your provider. Unvibe does not crawl or upload your whole repository. Default exclusions cover .env files, keys, node_modules, and build output.

How do I get the product?

The private beta is live for Apple silicon Mac and Windows x64. 30 AI explanations, then it stops. Copy the install command on unvibe.site. For partnerships, contact preston@unvibe.site.

Is Windows supported?

Yes, as a private beta. Same 30 AI explanations as Mac. Install from Windows PowerShell only, not cmd.exe: irm https://unvibe.site/install.ps1 | iex. The app is unsigned, so SmartScreen may warn. Choose More info, then Run anyway. Press Ctrl+U in your editor to explain selected code.

What is Unvibe Teams?

Unvibe Teams founding pilot is a shared workspace: invite teammates and see who reviewed or understood which file, concept, and project. Full explanation text stays on each person’s device. GitHub intelligence screens (PR understanding, knowledge-risk) are not shipped yet and stay labeled Pilot or Planned. Paid seat checkout is $8/seat/month for 2–20 seats when Stripe Teams billing is enabled.

Beta survey

After 30 explanations, a short survey.
