Edyt
AI for any text you select, in any app on Mac and Windows
Visit website →About
Edyt puts AI actions on any text you select, in any app on your Mac or Windows machine. Select text, press one shortcut, and the result lands where your cursor is. Rewrite keeps your tone and follows your instructions. Explain and Translate go as deep as you ask. Alternatives shows several ways to say the same thing.
Can't select the text? Hold Option on Mac or Alt on Windows and drag over a PDF, screenshot, or shared screen. Edyt reads it on your device using built-in OCR. The image never leaves your machine. Saved prompts sync across your machines through your account.
The free plan covers about 130 quick edits per day with no credit card required. Pro removes limits for unlimited use. Your selected text is sent over an encrypted connection for processing and is never stored or used for training.

Why we picked it
Most AI writing tools live inside a browser tab or their own window. Edyt breaks that boundary by working system-wide with a single shortcut. The free tier is genuinely generous, and screen reading via local OCR is a practical differentiator.
