BingGPT

What it does

Wraps what was then called the new Bing AI chat in a standalone desktop application, with a global hotkey to summon it and export of conversations to Markdown, PDF or image. Builds exist for Windows, macOS and Linux and a Microsoft account is required. Development stopped in February 2024; Microsoft has since renamed the service to Copilot and changed its interface, so whether this wrapper still works is unverified as of August 2026 - Microsoft's own Copilot app is the safer starting point.
