Finish your thought, hit ⌘A to grab it all, then ⌥⌘P to rewrite it in place — fixing grammar, spelling and wording while keeping your voice and language. No window switching. No mouse.
PMW lives in your menu bar and does exactly one thing — so there's almost nothing to learn.
Highlight a sentence, or press ⌘A to grab everything. In your editor, browser, Mail, Slack — anywhere you can type.
⌥⌘P sends your selection to be polished. Don't like the combo? Set it to anything you want in Settings.
Your selection becomes the polished version — same spot, same app, same flow. Keep typing without missing a beat.
Switch the level and watch the polish change. Your meaning and language stay put.
Switch any time — from the menu bar, or in Settings. Your choice sticks until you change it.
Typos & grammar only
Fixes spelling and obvious mistakes and changes nothing else. Best when you just need it correct and want your exact wording untouched.
Clean & natural
Fixes grammar and tightens wording while keeping your tone. The everyday default — clearer writing that still sounds like you.
Clear & considered
Restructures clunky sentences for the strongest version of what you meant. Still your voice — just sharper and easier to read.
PMW doesn't care which app you're in. It polishes whatever text you've selected and detects the language automatically — then answers in that same language. Nothing to set, nothing to switch.
Bring an API key from whichever provider you trust. PMW talks straight to them — no middle-man server, no markup, no subscription to us.
Claude models — a great default for natural, careful rewrites.
Paste your key onceGPT models — fast, capable, and probably already in your toolkit.
Paste your key onceFast, multimodal models — strong across languages and long documents.
Paste your key onceOne key, hundreds of models — pick whichever you like and switch freely.
Paste your key oncePMW is a thin shortcut between you and your provider. There's no account, no cloud, nothing of yours sitting on our servers — because there are no servers.
No PMW server in the middle. No detour. No copy kept.
PMW keeps no copy of your text. It's read when you press the shortcut, sent, and forgotten.
Your selection goes straight from your Mac to your provider, over your own key. We never see it.
The app just listens for ⌥⌘P. It reads your selection only at the moment you trigger it — never in the background.
Free to use, with your own provider key. Download it, paste a key, and polish your first sentence in under a minute.
