Select text in any app. Hit a shortcut. Get a popup that fixes, rewrites, or runs your saved prompts — right where you are.
How it works
Three real apps. Three real tasks. No app-switching, no copy-paste — just select, click, done.
How people use it
Why not just copy-paste into AI?
Same models. Same answers. ElastoType just cuts out the app-switching, copy-pasting, and re-prompting you do every time.
Universal
From users
This is what AI should have been from the start. Not another chat window — just select, fix, done. I don’t even think about it anymore, it’s just part of how I work now.
Genuinely can’t go back. Every email I send goes through my ‘rewrite professionally’ prompt now.
What you get
No shortcut to press. No app to open. Select any text on your Mac — the popup appears with your actions ready. This is the thing that changes your workflow.
Write a prompt once, save it as a chip. Now it’s a one-click action in every app. Your toolkit grows with you.
Built-in actions for the things you do every day. One click each.
Shake your mouse or press a shortcut. Write, brainstorm, get test data — no text needed.
Select a confusing term anywhere. Get a plain-English explanation instantly.
Slack, VS Code, Mail, Chrome, Notion, and more.
No copy-paste, no clipboard. The result lands exactly where your text was.
100 free actions a month out of the box. Add an OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Groq key for unlimited use.
Access everything you’ve copied, right from the popup.
Revisit past results and conversations anytime.
Text goes straight to your AI provider. Nothing is stored on our servers.
Download ElastoType. Select any text in any Mac app — a popup appears automatically. Pick an action (Fix, Rewrite, Translate, or your saved prompts). The result replaces your text in place. You can also shake your mouse to open the popup without selecting anything.
Not required. ElastoType works immediately with 100 free actions per month — no setup needed. But if you want unlimited usage or a specific model, you can bring your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Groq. Keys are stored securely in macOS Keychain.
If you can select text in the app, ElastoType works there. That includes Slack, VS Code, Cursor, Chrome, Arc, Mail, Notion, Obsidian, Figma, Terminal, iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, Linear — over 50 apps and counting. It uses the macOS Accessibility API, so any text-editable surface is fair game.
Yes. Text is sent directly to your chosen AI provider over a secure connection — we never store it on our servers. History and saved prompts live on your Mac only. We never log keystrokes or read your screen.
Open any AI tool the usual way and you’re looking at six steps: switch apps, paste, prompt, wait, copy, switch back. ElastoType collapses that into two: select, click. The popup appears right where you’re working, and the result replaces your text in place — no tab juggling, no clipboard hand-offs.
