Mac
Supercharge your writing on macOS. Select text, press a hotkey — translate, polish, or summarize instantly. All from your menu bar.
AIHandy is a lightweight macOS menu bar AI assistant that helps you process text instantly — translate, polish, summarize, explain code, and more — without ever leaving your current app.
Select any text, press a hotkey, and the result is ready in seconds. No tab switching. No copy-pasting. Just pure productivity.
AI Chat
Have natural conversations with any LLM directly from your menu bar. Ask questions, brainstorm ideas, or get help with writing. AIHandy supports streaming output for real-time responses, and keeps your conversation history so you can pick up where you left off.
Quick Actions — Your AI Toolkit
The real power of AIHandy lies in its Quick Actions. Select text in any app — a browser, text editor, code editor, or email client — press your hotkey, and choose from:
• Translate: Auto-detect source language with a configurable target language. Source and target can be changed on the fly right from the result panel.
• Polish: Make your writing more fluent and professional while preserving the original meaning and language.
• Summarize: Extract the core points from long articles, emails, or documents in seconds.
• Explain Code: Paste any code snippet and get a clear explanation of what it does and how it works.
• Expand: Add more depth and detail to your writing while keeping the original style and language.
• Custom Actions: Create your own AI prompts for any recurring task — grammar check, rewrite tone, extract keywords, and anything else you can imagine.
Global Hotkeys
AIHandy stays out of your way until you need it. Two system-wide hotkeys give you instant access:
• Option+Command+. — Open AI Chat
• Option+Command+L — Open Quick Actions panel
Works from any app, any context. No mouse needed.
