Screen Hidden

Your private work is covered while background tasks continue.

Touch ID PIN Password Hotkey
The modern problem

AI keeps working after you step away.

Coding agents and long-running tasks can continue for minutes. But your screen often stays full of sensitive code, prompts, terminals, customer data, API responses, and private documents.

🤖

AI agents keep running

Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and local scripts may need time to finish their work while you leave your desk.

👀

Your screen stays exposed

Code, logs, client names, tokens, dashboards, and private work can be visible in offices, cafes, or shared spaces.

🔒

Locking can interrupt flow

Traditional locking is not always ideal when you want your Mac awake and background workflows uninterrupted.

Without SleepGuard

Your work is visible.

  • × AI coding agent runs while your screen is exposed
  • × Terminals, logs, and private files stay visible
  • × Your Mac may sleep during long-running tasks
  • × You lose privacy in shared workspaces
With SleepGuard

Your workflow continues privately.

  • Hide your screen instantly with a privacy overlay
  • Keep AI agents, builds, and scripts running
  • Prevent unwanted sleep when needed
  • Unlock quickly with Touch ID, PIN, or password
