A Mac app for managing Claude Code sessions, pull requests, and work in one place with notifications only when something needs attention.

Overview

The Perch homepage

Perch is a Mac app designed for developers working with Claude Code. It keeps every session, pull request, and link for a piece of work in one place, and notifies you only when something needs attention.

The app works with tools you already use, including Claude Code, GitHub, GitLab, Jira, and Azure Boards. It organizes work by status and shows who is waiting on whom, with automatic PR tracking across repos. Features include a deep focus mode to mute other contexts, a dashboard grouped by whose move it is, and sessions that keep running across app restarts and updates.

Privacy is built in: all data stays on your Mac in a local database with no account required, no analytics tracking, and API keys stored only in macOS Keychain. The app is notarized by Apple and works through your own logins to Claude, GitHub, GitLab, and other services.

Buyer questions

What tools does Perch work with?

Perch integrates with Claude Code, GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Azure Boards, Slack, Confluence, Google Docs, Notion, Figma, Linear, and Loom. It uses your own logins to these services.

How is my data kept private?

Perch stores all contexts, notes, and status in a local database on your Mac. Nothing about your work leaves your Mac, there is no account required, and API keys stay in macOS Keychain or environment variables.

Does Perch track my usage or send my code?

No. Perch has no analytics or usage tracking. Update checks send only the app version and whether it is a new install. Crash reports are off by default and never include your prompts, terminal output, or code.

Can I import existing Claude sessions?

Yes. You can bring chats from the Claude app or pick Claude Code sessions to resume exactly where they left off.
