Polish, translate, rewrite, or run custom workflows — all on one keystroke.

Rewrite
anywhere on your Mac.

Hit one shortcut. WriterBar rewrites your selected text with AI, or instantly pastes any saved template or signature — anywhere you write. No copy, no paste, no app switching.

  • Fix grammar & tone
  • Translate text
  • Custom AI actions
  • Snippets, templates & signatures

See WriterBar in action

Watch every built-in action and the full keyboard flow in motion.

Everything you need to write faster

A focused toolset that disappears into your workflow.

Quick WriterBar

Press ⌥Space anywhere to open the Command Palette and instantly search, run, or edit any action or snippet.

Actions and snippets, ready to use

AI actions to fix, improve, shorten, expand, translate, and summarize — plus signatures, templates, and reusable snippets, all one hotkey away. Add your own in seconds.

Run any action, right where you type

Select text in any app, pick an action, and watch the rewrite stream in. Accept it and your text is replaced in place — no copying, no switching windows.

Diff & History

See exactly what changed before applying. Browse past rewrites. Re-run any action on the same selection.

Custom Snippets

Save signatures, boilerplate, prompts — with your own variables filled in automatically. Paste any snippet with a hotkey or from the menu bar, synced across devices.

Ask WriterBar anything

Not every edit fits a preset. Describe what you want in your own words and WriterBar rewrites the selection to match — then refine it again without leaving the panel.

Custom AI Workflows

Write any prompt, pick an icon, assign a hotkey. WriterBar runs your custom actions exactly like the built-ins — from PR descriptions to standup updates, every workflow lives on one keystroke.

Multi-Provider AI

Use our built-in model, or bring your own key for any major AI provider — including OpenRouter for 300+ models. Switch any time.

Made for the writing you do every day.

Founders, developers, students, writers — real workflows for every role you play. Polish a cold email, outline a blog post, format a bug report, paraphrase a citation. Grab a preset or build your own in seconds.
