Your tiny open-source desktop companion.
Mitra quietly lives on your desktop while you work.
No accounts. No tracking. No guilt. Just a little Red Panda companion that gently reminds you to take care of yourself.

Mitra comes with a built-in auto-updater. When a new version is released, Mitra will politely let you know there is an update available. You can click to install and restart with the latest features!
Mitra is designed to be completely out of your way until you need her. There are no complicated settings or dashboards.
- Drag anywhere: Click and hold to drag her anywhere on your screen.
- Interactions: Try clicking on her tummy, her paws, or giving her a high-five! She has a custom physics-based animation system that makes her respond dynamically to your interactions.
- 🧠 Behavior Chains & Anticipation: Mitra doesn't just pop up reminders out of nowhere. Before asking you to drink water or stretch, you'll see her yawn, stretch, or look around naturally—just like a real companion winding up to say something!
- Reminders & Props: She will automatically know when it's time for lunch, dinner, or when you need a stretch. She even pulls out props (like a coffee mug or food) and plays happy chewing sounds when it's eating time! When she gives you a reminder bubble, you can click the bubble to dismiss it.
- Custom Reminders & Command Bar: Ask Mitra for any custom reminders using natural language (e.g. "medicine in 30m", "coffee every 1h", or "lunch at 1:30 PM"). Live parsing previews show up as you type. Includes local safety filters to prevent self-harm, violent, or illegal schedules.
- 🎵 Music Vibes: She listens along to your music (Windows-only) and enjoys the tunes with you!
- 🤫 Meeting Privacy: She intelligently detects when you're on a Zoom or Teams call and stays completely out of the way.
- 💻 Coding Buddy: She detects when your IDE is open (VS Code, JetBrains) and silently cheers you on!
- Weather & Battery: She fetches local weather to know when to hold an umbrella, and she does a happy dance when your laptop battery hits 100%!
- Settings: Right-click the system tray icon (down in your taskbar) to open Settings or toggle Compact Mode.
