What is StayUp?

StayUp keeps a Windows PC awake on your terms: forever, for a set time, until a clock time, while a chosen app is running (Zoom, OBS, a backup job), or on a daily schedule like workdays 9-18. It uses the Windows power request API - no fake keypresses - and lives quietly in the tray.

What sets it apart from a basic keep-awake toggle:

  • Per-app rules: stay awake while a specific program runs, for any app on the PC.
  • Daily schedule, including overnight ranges.
  • One-tap favourite durations and a rebindable global hotkey (F9).
  • Optional "stay active" nudge that keeps idle-based status dots accurate while you are around but not typing - off by default, and stated plainly for what it is.
  • One portable .exe: no installer, no admin rights, zero telemetry.

Free 3-day trial with everything unlocked. One-time purchase, works on 2 PCs, 14-day money-back guarantee. Windows 10/11.
