AI Summary
AwakeMate is a macOS utility that prevents your Mac from sleeping while selected applications and command-line interfaces are active, allowing it to sleep automatically when they're not in use. It offers features like timed settings, a lid-closed mode to save battery, and on-device statistics, with a free 14-day trial and a one-time purchase price of $39.99.
caffeinate keeps the whole Mac awake until you remember to stop it. AwakeMate is smarter: it watches the apps and CLIs you pick - Xcode, ffmpeg, Docker, Claude Code, Codex - and holds off sleep only while they run, then lets the Mac sleep. Automatic, Timed, or Always-On. Plus an optional lid-closed mode that dims the screen to save battery, a notch and menu-bar readout, and on-device stats. No telemetry. Free 14-day trial, one-time $39.99, macOS 13+.
