Your Mac runs the flows. Cloud gives them AI and a public address.
Watchflows is local-first, and the app needs no account. Cloud is an optional $12-a-month plan that adds hosted AI with zero setup and a public URL that reaches your flows — nothing else leaves your machine. Want to try the AI first? It’s 2,000 free Sparks, no card.

Two hosted services. That’s the whole of it.
The two capabilities a local app genuinely can’t provide on its own — and nothing you don’t ask for.
Hosted AI, metered in Sparks
Run AI nodes with no API keys and no setup — Watchflows carries the model, you spend Sparks. Sparks follow what the model actually costs, and a usage ring in the app shows exactly what’s left. Free Sparks run the good-value models; Sparks you buy, in Cloud or a pack, also run premium models such as Claude Opus and GPT-5.5.
A public URL to your Mac
A public HTTPS endpoint at hooks.watchflows.app securely forwards to flows running on your Mac. No port forwarding, no tunnels. Included with Cloud, and free when you own the app.
Turn Cloud on when you want it.
One plan, with the app included. Already own the $49 license? Public webhooks are yours already, and Spark packs need no subscription.

Annual is $132 — one month free, and the year’s Sparks arrive upfront. Spark packs: 5,500 for $5, 12,000 for $10, 32,500 for $25, and they never expire. Full details on the pricing page.
Try Watchflows AI free
Give your email, click the sign-in link, and get 2,000 free Sparks, good for 30 days. That’s about 8 flows built by AI, or about 2,000 AI steps. No password, no card, once per person.
Bring your own keys, always free
Point AI nodes at your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or a local Ollama model and Cloud is never required. Your keys always take priority — Sparks are only spent when hosted AI does the work.
No passwords.
No account unless you want our AI.
Own the app and the license key in your email is your identity. Reinstall, activate, and everything comes back. If you use Watchflows AI or Cloud, your email is your account: you sign in with a link, and there’s no password to reset. We use it for sign-in, receipts and one trial reminder — never a newsletter.
