Features

What Dockside actually does.

What you get once your workspaces are set up.

Workspace Profiles

Know which hat you're wearing.

Never wonder which account you're using.

Each workspace has its own accent color across the titlebar and frame, plus a ring on its sidebar icon that fades the longer you've been away.

Notification Triage

47 unread badges. Under a minute.

Clear a morning's worth of unread in about a minute. ⌘⇧N pulls every badge from every app and workspace into one drawer, three actions each: Done, Later, or Quiet.

The source app's badge stays untouched.

Workspace Handoff

Close clean. Start clear.

Stop carrying tomorrow's first task in your head overnight.

Quit and Dockside asks where you left off. Open it in the morning and it's on screen, with what was open and where your time went.

Try it free for 14 days.

More of what makes Dockside, Dockside.

Multi-Account

Both Gmails. Zero gymnastics.

Sign into two accounts of the same app and use both at once. Work Gmail and personal Gmail side by side in one workspace, with separate sessions, badges, and logins.

Focus Sessions

Focused work, built in.

Everything else goes quiet. Start a session and the sidebar dims, a timer runs, and your current app takes the full screen.

Named Docks

Your most-used app pairs, one click away.

The two apps you always use together, one click away. Save any pair as a named Dock in the sidebar: Client A’s Slack next to their Linear.

Universal Command Palette

⌘K, everywhere.

⌘K gets you anywhere without hunting for it. Any workspace, any app, or a page you visited recently, with fuzzy search.

Split View

Two apps, side by side.

Keep your reference open while you work. Chat on the left, doc on the right, one resizable divider, all inside the same workspace.

Private Browse

Disappear when you want to.

Look something up without it following you around. One click starts a clean, red-tinted session that forgets everything when you close it.

All of this, free to try for 14 days.

Thoughtful by default

Plus the basics, done right.

Find anything, in any app.

⌘F searches inside the app you're in, and arrow keys walk the matches.

Every shortcut, one keystroke away.

Learn the app without digging through menus. Press ? for every shortcut on one card.

Dark, Light, or follow the system.

Match your Mac or pick a side. Dark, light, or follow the system.

Update when you’re ready.

New versions download quietly in the background. A restart button appears in the titlebar when one is ready, so you update on your own schedule.

Share a workspace setup.

Hand someone your whole setup. Copy a workspace as a link; anyone with Dockside imports it in one click.

Notifications that land you in the right place.

Get notified even when Dockside is in the background. Click one and you land in the right app, in the right workspace, already signed in.

All your notifications. One badge.

One number for everything waiting. Every app and workspace, summed on the Dock icon.

Your apps are already here.

Start with a full catalog. Search by name or category, or simply add any app or site that isn’t there with a URL.

A day with Dockside.

Morning

Pick up exactly where you left off.

Your Work workspace loads exactly as you left it, every app still signed in. One ⌘⇧N clears the overnight badges.

Workspace Handoff · Notification Triage
Midday

Switch workspaces in one keystroke.

Jump to the side project and a different Gmail, GitHub, and Stripe are already signed in. Start a focus session and everything else dims.

Evening
