DuckyHelper sees Zulip on your screen and, in early access, works in it with its own cursor to send and edit messages, manage channels and subscriptions, schedule messages and reminders, add reactions, and save drafts.

BUILT TO ASK FIRST

It's built to wait for your OK in Zulip.

When a job ends in “Send a message”, it does the work, and is built to stop with it ready. You see exactly what it wrote and where it goes, then Send, Edit or Deny.

It works in Zulip signed in as you. If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself: it's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.
