About LinkPilot

Stop opening links twice. You click a link in Slack, it opens in the wrong browser, you copy the URL and paste it into the right one. LinkPilot removes that step for good. Define routes that match on what a link is, and LinkPilot opens it where it belongs — instantly, every time, from any app on your Mac. Match links five ways Domain — github.com, including every subdomain Starts with — https://linear.app/acme Contains — /pull/ Scheme — slack, figma, zoommtg Regular expression — for everything else Routes are checked top to bottom and the first match wins, so you stay in control of precedence. Anything unmatched goes to the destination you choose. Any app, not just browsers Route to Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Arc, Brave, Edge — or to Slack, Figma, Notion, or any app installed on your Mac. Built for the way you actually work Edit routes in place, no dialogs. Add one in two fields. Reorder to change priority. Your links stay yours Everything runs locally on your Mac. No account, no cloud, no telemetry. Your routes are a plain JSON file you own. One-time setup To catch links from every app, LinkPilot installs a small companion app that macOS uses as your default browser. It does one thing: hand each link to LinkPilot. You select it yourself in System Settings, and you can turn it off any time.
