Keep your Mac awake for as long as you need. Set a duration, choose what to prevent, and let Tostato handle the rest — right from your menu bar. Tostato keeps your Mac awake. No scripts, no Terminal, no fuss. Whether you're running a long download, presenting to a client, or monitoring a process overnight, Tostato prevents your Mac from sleeping exactly when you need it. It lives quietly in the menu bar and gets out of your way the rest of the time. Keep your Mac awake, your way Choose which type of sleep to prevent: display sleep, idle sleep, or system sleep when connected to AC power. Enable only what you actually need. Set a duration or run indefinitely Pick from 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12 hours — or keep your Mac awake indefinitely until you decide to stop. A live countdown in the menu bar keeps you informed at a glance. Automatic activation on AC power Enable auto-activate and Tostato will start a session as soon as your Mac is plugged in, and pause automatically when you unplug. No manual toggling needed. Designed to stay out of your way Tostato is a menu bar app — no Dock icon, no windows cluttering your desktop. Tap the menu bar icon to open the popover, adjust your settings, and get back to work. No rules engine. No bloat. Unlike other keep-awake apps that bury their controls under triggers, schedules, and automation rules, Tostato gives you exactly what you need and nothing more. Turn it on, set a duration, and go. Privacy-first, no network access Tostato works entirely on-device. No accounts, no tracking, no cloud sync. Everything stays on your Mac.
