Illuminate Your Digital Footprint
That last ? It could have lit up a light bulb for:
What is it?
LiteLight is an app that lives in your menu bar. It visualizes your digital energy use by lighting up a virtual bulb based on your online activities. It's like having a tiny, eco-conscious companion right on your desktop!
But why?
It's easy to overlook our energy consumption, especially now that more advanced tools like LLMs are widely available and useful. LiteLight brings awareness to this hidden aspect of our digital lives by visualizing it in a tangible way. It encourages mindfulness without being intrusive.
How does it work?
LiteLight uses a simple, energy-efficient algorithm to show you the energy impact of your online activities, like Googling or chatting with ChatGPT. No fancy AI or GPUs - just a straightforward app that helps you understand your digital energy footprint.
What about my privacy?
We're big on privacy! Your data is yours, not ours. LiteLight doesn't record or track any of your data.
The components
- A free desktop application for Mac.
- [Coming soon] A USB light that responds to your digital activity, use any light bulb!
