BoxBox
Handle supported AI approvals and replies from your Mac's island
Overview
When several AI tasks are running, one can stop and wait for your approval or an answer. BoxBox brings supported requests into its Mac island so you can review them, choose an option or reply, and send that decision back to the original AI tool. You remain in control: it does not automatically approve requests. Actions depend on the integration and an available response channel; some requests still need to be handled in the original tool.
Pricing: Freemium. The official download starts a 15-day full Pro trial without a login or payment card, with no automatic charge. It then continues on a limited free plan: one full task card and one usage source visible at a time; alerts cover the displayed task and its subtasks. Pro is US$4.90/year for 1 Mac, or US$8.90/14.90/19.90 one-time for 1/2/3 Macs. Applicable taxes are shown before payment.
Minimum macOS: 14.0 (Sonoma)
