PromptBar 1.3.2

PromptBar – AI Chat Simplified for macOS

PromptBar is a lightweight AI chat client for macOS, integrating Mistral AI, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, Perplexity, Copilot, AI Studio, NotebookLM, Meta AI, and now Sophea.AI, into a seamless menubar app for instant productivity.

PromptBar Interface


✨ What’s New in 1.3.2?

  • 🧠 Sophea.AI Support
    Say hello to Sophea.AI, the first Greek-native LLM, built on NVIDIA DGX systems and trained exclusively using green energy. Sophea brings precision and semantic depth to Greek-language applications, including:

    • Legal & regulatory analysis
    • AI accounting tools
    • Voice-based customer support
    • Upcoming AI-powered travel tools
  • 📡 Smarter Update System
    Check for the latest .pkg build right from the About window. Easier updates, zero friction.

  • 🍎 Notarized by Apple
    No Gatekeeper popups, no “unidentified developer” errors. PromptBar 1.3.2 is 100% notarized.

  • 💬 UI Enhancements
    Faster model switching and improved responsiveness under heavy load.

  • 🪲 Bug Fixes
    Minor tweaks and stability fixes based on user feedback.


📢 App Store Status

Despite months of back-and-forth and multiple name changes (MacMistral → Mistralis → PromptBar), Apple has officially rejected PromptBar from the Mac App Store — even while similar browser-based AI tools remain approved.

We’re disappointed but not surprised — and more determined than ever to keep PromptBar accessible and growing.
