Description

Improve your productivity; AI understands your task and fetches context from the app you're using.

Alter functions universally, with specific features for Finder, Apple Mail, and Keynote.

Access Alter's contextual menu using a global shortcut (e.g., `alt+option`). Every action is displayed with a mnemonic system and can be activated with a shortcut.

It offers 60+ AI-powered actions suggested contextually:

- Watching YouTube? Obtain a concise summary from the transcript.
- Selected emails in Apple Mail? Extract tasks from the conversations.
- Opened Keynote? Generate a preliminary presentation with images sourced from the internet.
- Highlighted text? Translate, correct grammar and typos, or adjust the tone.
- Selected text on LinkedIn? Expand it into a complete post.
- Selected a research paper in Finder? Analyze it.
- Selected multiple files and folders? Ask anything or receive a summary.
- Selected a git-commit in your code editor? Generate a commit message.

Additionally, Alter includes specialized AI for marketing, business, mental models, and software engineering. Engage in conversations to generate ideas, resolve problems, and gain expert insights on specific topics.

Customization is key. Design your own actions to align with your specific workflow, and assign custom shortcuts to each action and folder.

Alter provides AI models without requiring an API key. Access multiple models and providers, including OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, and Together.

Use your own API key or prefer local models? OpenAI-compatible endpoints are supported.

For maximum privacy, use Ollama and LM Studio for an offline experience.
