I currently use http://heliumfloats.com which appears to be exactly this, albeit Helium is free. What are the benefits to this over Helium?

I was actually using Helium for a long time. It is a awesome app as well, offering a different set of features IMHO.

A sneak peak of features offered by FenĂȘtre.

- Browser extension

- Code highlight

- Markdown Viewer

- Click-through and See-through as well as opacity control (Helium has opacity too)

- Lots of settings to control defaults behaviors.

- Mute window

- Clipboard access

- Customizable hotkeys

- Polished experience for some website (Youtube, Vimeo, Twitch, Github to name a few...)

- Access to recent opened items

- Local files support (video, image, text files...)

- Collapsed view

Hope you'll give it a shot !

It's worth at least the "on sale" $5 (compared to Helium's 125 open issues) if that encourages you to slog along with customer support and to fix the inevitable OS-level breaking changes.
