What RED is
RED is a floating assistant designed to sit on top of your work rather than interrupt it. It runs as a lightweight layer on the operating system and uses Model Context Protocol to connect securely with local files and cloud services. Because it can read the context of the active window, it offers help based on what is actually on your screen. Its main strengths are automated workflows that trigger a sequence of actions from one command, real-time transcription that captures meetings and pulls out action items, and integrations with tools like GitHub, Google Drive, Slack, and Notion. Plans include a free tier, HK$199 per month, and HK$469 per month, and the product is currently optimized for macOS.
What you can do with it
- Automate multi-step workflows from a single command
- Transcribe meetings in real time and extract key action items
- Ask questions about meeting content and get immediate answers
- Manage schedules, email, and connected tools from one place
- Read and write to local repositories, documents, and databases
Who it is for
- Developers who want help with code review and repository work
- HR teams and enterprises that need reliable meeting records
- Students and creative staff looking to automate routine planning
What to watch out for
The product is currently optimized for macOS, so users on other systems may not get the full experience. Paid plans are priced in Hong Kong dollars, which matters for budgeting if you pay in another currency. Most importantly, RED reads screen context and connects to local files and cloud services to do its job, so review what access you grant, keep sensitive material out of scope where possible, and check the privacy terms before connecting production accounts. As an assistant, its output should be reviewed rather than trusted blindly, especially for summaries that drive decisions.
