MedHue Labs

Free

Turns an iPhone or iPad into a haptic control deck for your Mac and for AI coding agents like Claude, Codex and Cursor.

Key features

  • Haptic Control Deck: A customisable board of controls that responds with haptics, sound and visual feedback so actions can be triggered without looking.
  • Agent Task Monitoring: Shows progress and attention states for Codex, Claude and Cursor tasks at a glance, and lets you reopen recent tasks or start new ones.
  • Client-Specific Controls: Switches the deck between Mac control and per-agent control surfaces tailored to Codex, Claude and Cursor.
  • Full Mac Control: Launches applications, adjusts volume, brightness, media and windows, moves the pointer, scrolls, clicks, runs Shortcuts and invokes Siri.
  • Local Dictation: Dictates into desktop apps from the deck with transcription processed locally by CTRL Micro Host on the Mac rather than in the cloud.
  • Desktop View: Streams the Mac screen above the controls or full screen, with pinch, pan and double-tap to inspect detail.
  • Remote Anywhere: End-to-end encrypted remote sessions where the relay forwards opaque data and cannot read screen or control content.
  • No-Account Privacy Model: Requires no CTRL Micro account, keeps nearby connections direct between devices, and stores no screen frames, keystrokes or dictation.

Best for

  • Agent Babysitting: Keep an eye on long-running Claude Code or Codex tasks from a second screen and step in the moment one needs attention.
  • Hands-Free Dictation: Dictate prompts or documentation into Mac apps from the iPad while keeping the keyboard free for other work.
  • Desk Ergonomics: Move frequently used Mac shortcuts and media controls onto a physical-feeling deck instead of hunting through menus.
  • Remote Mac Access: Check on and control a Mac at the office from elsewhere over an end-to-end encrypted Remote Anywhere session.
  • Multi-Agent Workflows: Switch between Codex, Claude and Cursor sessions from one deck when several agents are working in parallel.
  • Privacy-Sensitive Environments: Control a Mac and transcribe speech without creating an account or sending screen content to a vendor.

Turns a smartphone video of an open trench into a centimetre-accurate 3D point cloud, CAD as-built plan and GIS-ready digital twin of buried utilities.

Key features

  • Smartphone capture: Field crews record an open trench with a standard iPhone Pro — no specialist scanning hardware and no separate surveying appointment
  • Centimetre-accurate point clouds: Reconstruction algorithms developed at ETH Zurich build a high-resolution 3D point cloud of the excavation from the video alone
  • Standards-compliant CAD output: Generates as-built plans in DWG and DXF, with couplings and pipe runs identified and measurements simplified
  • 3D digital twin and GIS export: Produces a model of the pipe route including building entries that drops into existing GIS systems
  • Works without GPS: Captures basement sections and building entry points where GNSS-based surveying fails
  • Immediate backfilling: Because capture takes minutes, trenches close right after filming instead of waiting on a survey crew
  • Documentation in about 72 hours: Complete records arrive weeks earlier than conventional surveying, enabling prompt connection billing
  • Third-party utility capture: Records crossing utilities and as-laid geometry as unbroken 3D evidence, replacing hand sketches

Best for

  • A utility network operator documenting residential service connections without booking a surveyor for every site
  • A contractor closing a trench the same day instead of leaving it open pending a survey appointment
  • Capturing a building entry point in a basement where GPS-based surveying cannot get a fix
  • A district heating project producing as-built DWG plans for regulatory sign-off
  • Spotting a laying error in the 3D point cloud before backfilling, while the fix is still cheap
  • Feeding as-built pipe geometry into a GIS system for long-term network maintenance planning
