Ever wish AI could just pop in and finish your thoughts... before you even ask?
No more alt-tab. No more copy-paste.
WinPilot is your universal AI assistant that works in any Windows app, triggered by a simple keyboard shortcut.
It reads your current context — active app, window title, selected text, focused content, even a screenshot — and gives you exactly what you were about to type.
Like Copilot, but everywhere.
- ✅ Global hotkey trigger (configurable)
- ✅ Automatically reads your screen & text context
- ✅ Takes a screenshot of the active window
- ✅ Sends everything to your preferred AI provider (OpenAI or Anthropic)
- ✅ Supports multimodal models (image input + text)
- ✅ Beautiful animated suggestion popup
- ✅ 1-click “Accept” → auto-pastes into your app
- ✅ Full WPF + MVVM + .NET 8
- ✅ ResX localized (English + Français + Español + Deutsch)
- ✅ ❤️ Designed with love and keyboard nerd energy
| Provider | Models Included | Image Support |
|---|---|---|
| OpenAI | GPT-4o, GPT-4 Turbo, GPT-4.5 | ✅ |
| Anthropic | Claude 3.5 / 3.7 (Sonnet, Opus, Haiku) | ✅ |
You can switch providers and models from the Settings window.
“Cooking something...”
- You press
Ctrl + Alt + W(or your own shortcut) - WinPilot captures:
- App name
- Window title
- Focused control
- Selected text (via Ctrl+C)
- Screenshot of the active window
- It builds a prompt like:
The user is currently in SQL Server.
The selected text is: "SELECT * FROM Client".
The window title is "SSMS - Query.sql".
The user wrote in the editor: "-- I want to add a new column for the phone number."
- The AI model (OpenAI or Claude) replies:
ALTER TABLE Client ADD Phone VARCHAR(50);- You accept it, and boom 💥 it gets pasted into your app. Zero effort.
You can configure:
- Your API key
- The AI model (with image support only)
- Auto-send on hotkey
- Your preferred shortcut keys
🧠 All context is kept locally except when explicitly sent to the AI provider.
You can choose to disable auto-send.
- WPF (.NET 8)
- MVVM (almost zero code-behind)
- Custom Hotkey manager with Win32
- ResX resources (EN/FR/ES/DE)
- Love and stubbornness
