Cluely is paid. Ofradr is open and free.

Open Source Cluely Alternative

Cluely is a closed, ~$20/month interview overlay. Ofradr is the open source Cluely alternative: cross-platform on Windows and macOS, about 800KB, Ultra free forever, code on GitHub.

Price

Cluely charges monthly. Ofradr is $0 forever with Ultra on every new account.

Source

Cluely is proprietary. Ofradr is at github.com/sunnycodet/ofradr — star it.

Footprint

Ofradr is a native overlay around 800KB. Typical Electron copilots are tens of megabytes.

Cluely vs an open source stack

If your requirement is “I want to see what is running on my machine,” a closed overlay fails that test. Ofradr publishes the project and does not meter Ultra behind a card form.

Stealth still matters: a cross-platform native overlay instead of a Chromium shell, click-through overlay, no tray billboard. Open source does not mean noisy.

What you keep when you switch

Screen overlay for interviews and assessments. Local models for offline work. Cloud providers when you bring your own keys. No migration fee, because there is nothing to pay.

  • Free vs ~$20/month
  • GitHub vs closed binary
  • Local models vs cloud-only
  • Ultra included vs upsells

FAQ

Is there an open source Cluely alternative?

Ofradr. It is free, Ultra is default, and the repo is github.com/sunnycodet/ofradr.

Does going open source make it easier to detect?

No. Detectability is about how the overlay is implemented (native vs Electron, capture hooks, process listing), not about whether the repo is public.
