Where can I see them?

On your Dock, in the Mac app, which is out now for macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on an Apple silicon or Intel Mac. Members download it from their library and sign in, and the buddies they paid for download onto their Mac. Before you choose, the playground on our homepage lets you try a few of Max’s moves.

Work: 13 activities

Both buddies: think, type, celebrate, debug code, write in a notebook, read a book, light-bulb idea, draw on a tablet, plug in a cable, write a to-do list, react to an error, video call, and repair a lamp.

Breaks: 6 activities

Both buddies: walk, coffee break, stretch, sit on the desk edge, relax on a beanbag, and nap in the office chair.

Desk care: 7 for Max, 9 for Avery

Both buddies: stick up a note, stack books, clean the desk, carry a box, push a big book, water a plant, and organize books. Avery adds sort priority cards and tidy the cables.

Play: 11 activities

Both buddies: run, jump, wave, wave from the desk, shake head, nod, climb book steps, chase the cursor, dance, peek out of an app window, and high five.

What are the 8 moods?

Max and Avery share the same 8 moods: happy, sad, focused, surprised, tired, thinking, laughing, and excited. You will find them on each character page, listed under the activities.

What are they learning next?

Max: tossing a paper ball at the bin, spinning in the office chair, and doodling on a sticky note. Avery: sorting a little stack of letters, tea and a quiet page, and tidying the pencil cup. Like everything on our roadmap, these come without hard dates, in the order the work happens.

Do new activities cost extra?

No. Every new activity we add to your characters is included in your plan, at no extra cost, for as long as the plan is active. That goes for all three plans: Monthly is $5.99 a month, Annual is $69 a year, and Lifetime is $200 once and never renews.
