Welcome to Cat Ninth
Focused desktop tools, with a little less in your way.
Cat Ninth is a GitHub organization based in Hungary, building lightweight alternatives to large desktop applications. The projects aim to keep work local where possible and make everyday tasks straightforward.

Both documented applications have Windows x64 and Linux x86_64 packages. Their platform capabilities differ; read the installation page for your tool before downloading. There are no published macOS packages for either tool.
What you will find here
Short, task-based guides using the names you see in the applications. Start with installation, follow the first-use walkthrough, then return for settings and shortcuts when you need them.
The latest documentation review, on October 25, 2026, covers changes since the October 12 docs update through GitCat 1.13.0 and ClipCat 0.8.1, plus ClipCat's unreleased update-discovery fix. The original guides were reviewed on September 26; this is an incremental update, not a new end-to-end application test.
GitCat images come from its project feature gallery and may show an earlier version. ClipCat images show the actual React interface in its browser preview with sample settings, without live recording. Existing images have not been recaptured for this update and may omit newer controls.
