Intent

I need it when

Automate repetitive AI tasks across any macOS application without context switching

TexTab lets users create unlimited custom AI keyboard shortcuts that trigger instantly from any app (browsers, emails, IDEs, documents). Users select text and execute AI actions with one keystroke, eliminating manual copy-paste workflows and context switching.

Extend keyboard shortcut functionality with specialized tools without leaving the application

TexTab offers native plugins in beta including Chat with AI (multi-turn conversations), QR Code Generator, Image Converter, and Color Picker. Users can extend their workflow with these built-in tools while maintaining the keyboard-shortcut-driven interface.

Quickly capture and organize thoughts, ideas, and web content without leaving current workflow

TexTab functions as a personal library and quick capture tool accessible via keyboard shortcuts. Users can capture thoughts, ideas, links, and visuals directly from any app, plus use built-in web search via Perplexity to gather live data without switching applications.

Improve AI prompt quality and consistency across different tasks

TexTab includes a one-click AI-powered prompt improver that transforms simple instructions into better-structured prompts for optimal results. Users can also start with pre-built actions (Fix Grammar, Rephrase, Shorten, Formalize, Translate) to maintain consistency across common tasks.

Use preferred AI models and providers while maintaining data privacy

TexTab supports multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, Perplexity, OpenRouter) and lets users bring their own API keys. All data stays on the user's Mac with no TexTab servers involved, giving users control over which models they use and where their data goes.
