Release 2.6  ·  Codename Slipstream  ·  Shipping now

My Rio just learned to keep up with you.

Slipstream is the biggest My Rio update since launch. Your AI companion now follows you across every display, drafts in your voice, and proofreads as fast as you can type — while sitting so light on your Mac you'll forget it's running. Built for the teams the giants overlook. Here's everything that changed.

The headline features

Four things that make Slipstream feel different

New

It finds the screen you're on

Move to a second monitor and My Rio moves with you. Slipstream docks the companion to the corner nearest your cursor, on the display you're actually using — no dragging, no hunting. Click once to summon it; click away and it slips back out of frame.

Improved

Grammar that keeps up with your typing

The proofreader is rebuilt on native macOS text intelligence — spelling, grammar, and clarity checks that surface inline as you write, in six languages. No round-trip to a server, no waiting on a spinner. It just underlines the fix and gets out of your way.

New

Drafts that sound like you sent them

Ask My Rio to reply and the draft goes out under your own name — your tone, your sign-off, never a robotic "sent by an assistant" footer. You review every word before it leaves. Internal review labels stay internal; they can't ride along on a real send.

Improved

Barely there when you're not using it

We rewrote how the companion animates. Ambient motion now runs on the graphics layer instead of redrawing the window, so idle My Rio sips power in the background. Your fans stay quiet, your battery lasts, and it wakes the instant you call it.

The full changelog

Everything in 2.6 · Slipstream

The complete list of what's new, what got better, and what we fixed. Nothing hidden.

New Added

  • Screen-follow companion. My Rio pops on the display you're using and docks to the corner closest to your pointer.
  • One-click summon. A single click brings the companion forward from anywhere; it tucks away when you click off.
  • Multilingual proofreading. Grammar and clarity checks now cover six languages, switching automatically with your text.
  • Draft-as-you. Outbound drafts carry your name and voice, with a mandatory review step before anything sends.

Improved Refined

  • Native grammar engine. Rebuilt on the system text stack for instant inline spelling, grammar, and phrasing suggestions.
  • Idle efficiency. Ambient motion moved to hardware layers; icons are cached so the panel no longer redraws itself at rest.
  • Faster wake. The companion opens and focuses noticeably quicker when summoned mid-task.
  • Secure team access. Proofreading for staff now sits behind verified single sign-on, scoped to writing only.

Fixed Squashed

  • Stuck-position bug. Auto-hops between displays no longer leave the panel pinned to the wrong corner.
  • Review labels leaking. Internal review tags can no longer attach to a real outbound message. Fails closed, every time.
  • High CPU at rest. Eliminated the redraw loop that kept the companion busy while idle.
  • Focus flicker. Summoning My Rio over a full-screen app no longer steals and drops focus.
