The product question
IslandIQ explores what happens when AI lives in a native macOS surface instead of a separate browser tab. The product brings screenshot vision, persistent chat, media controls, and system actions into an always-available interface.
A system, not a prompt box
The experience connects provider support, image conversations, global shortcuts, and operating-system integrations. That means the product surface has to handle state, permissions, feedback, and the small details that make an assistant feel present without becoming distracting.
The takeaway
AI product design is not only prompt design. The best interface gives the model the right context, gives the user a clear action, and makes the result easy to verify or continue.
