What PowerAim is

PowerAim is a Windows tool that captures the screen, runs a YOLOv8 model and moves a mouse or virtual controller toward detected targets. It works from screen images rather than game memory, and its maker says it can work with any game. Aim settings can be organized into profiles, with selectable smoothing and optional tracking and prediction. It can aim through a virtual Xbox stick and map controller input to keyboard input in both directions. The HUD reader can interpret ammo, health or weapon names and use conditions to gate triggers or switch profiles. Anti-recoil profiles can record and replay recoil patterns or use image-based compensation. Users can build custom tools from movement, clicks, key presses, executable launches and delays. AutoPlay can send detections and OCR context to a local Ollama model for scripted actions. The maker says PowerAim runs locally without telemetry and does not read or write game memory, inject code or load a kernel driver. It is free, with no paywall, ads or key system, but its source-available PolyForm Noncommercial license prohibits commercial use. Installer and portable ZIP builds are offered.
