How It Works

One shortcut brings up the toolbar. Everything on it is one letter away.

Press Ctrl+Shift+Space in any app and the toolbar comes up over your selection. Each action carries its letter, so picking one is a single key. That is the only shortcut worth remembering.

Actions

Rewrite Alternatives Explain Translate Use Prompt

The shortcuts below are optional. They run an action without the toolbar.

Rewrite`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`C`

Polish tone, grammar, and clarity in place.

Select and press

Select text in any app and press the shortcut. The rewrite replaces your selection where it sits. No panel, no copy-paste.

Every editable field

Tone, grammar, or a full rewrite, the result lands in the field you were typing in. Works in every editable field on your Mac.

Remap and tune

Change the shortcut to any key combination and edit the rewrite prompt. Both sync to your other devices.

Alternatives`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`L`

Several versions of the same sentence, side by side.

Several at once

Alternatives returns several versions of your selection side by side, instead of one rewrite to accept or discard.

Choose, then insert

Scan the list and insert or copy the one that fits in a single click. Nothing changes until you pick.

Three, or fifteen

Set how many options you get, from three to fifteen, and write your own prompt for how they should sound.

Explain`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`E`

Plain-language explanations for jargon and dense text.

Plain language, in place

Select jargon, a dense paragraph, or an unfamiliar concept and get a plain-language explanation in the panel. No tab switching.

Ask follow-ups

Ask follow-up questions in the same panel to go deeper or get examples.

Match how you learn

Change the shortcut and edit the explanation prompt to match how you learn.

Translate`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`T`

Translation that keeps the meaning and the formatting.

Context, not word swaps

Select text, pick a language, and get a translation that keeps the meaning and the formatting.

Switch and refine

Change the target language from the panel, and use follow-up chat to refine the wording.

Build your workflow

Change the shortcut and edit the translation prompt. Both sync everywhere you use Edyt.

Custom Prompts`Ctrl`+`Shift`+`J`

Run your own prompts on any text.

Your whole library

Opens your saved prompts. Select text, pick one, and it runs on the selection: a tone guide, a formatter, a specialized rewrite.

Reusable across apps

Save a prompt once for a repeat task, then trigger it with the same shortcut in any app on your Mac.

Manage from the dashboard

Create, edit, and organize your prompts and categories from your dashboard. Change the shortcut to any key combination.

Features

Your Voice

Make every rewrite sound like you.

Choose it once

Pick a voice in settings. Every rewrite uses it, so there is no prompt to retype each time.

Professional or personal

Switch between a professional voice for work and a relaxed one for everything else, or write your own.

Applies everywhere

Your voice applies in every app, syncs to your devices, and resets to the default whenever you want.

Screen Reading

Read text from PDFs, pictures, and anything on screen.

Drag over anything

Some text can't be selected: PDFs, pictures, screenshots, video calls. Hold Option and drag a rectangle over it instead.

Straight into the toolbar

The captured text opens in the same toolbar as any selection, ready to explain, translate, or run a prompt on.

Stays on your Mac

Recognition runs on your device using Apple's built-in text recognition. The image never leaves your Mac, and nothing is captured unless you drag.
