Description
Awakado is a specialized menu-bar application for macOS that ensures your Mac remains awake while AI coding agents are active. It supports 21 different agents, such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and Cursor, by monitoring their activity through hooks and live processes. This app is particularly useful for developers who rely on AI agents for coding tasks, as it prevents the Mac from sleeping during critical operations, even when the lid is closed.

The app offers two modes: Agent mode, which automatically keeps the Mac awake while agents are working, and Manual mode, which allows users to set a timer or choose a specific time to keep the Mac awake. Awakado Pro, available for a one-time purchase of $9.99 for up to three Macs, adds features like lid-closed mode and waking the Mac when a Claude Code usage limit resets.
Awakado also includes safety features such as a battery floor and temperature limit to prevent overheating or battery drain. Users can customize settings like screen lock behavior and cool-down periods after agents finish their tasks. The app provides detailed activity logs and weekly statistics to help users track their usage.
Designed by Noodle Dragon Studio, an independent New Zealand-based studio, Awakado is committed to privacy, ensuring that no data leaves your Mac except for license and update checks. The app is free to download, with Pro features available for purchase, offering free updates for life and a 14-day refund policy.
