TransLite▲98Hello ! David from Spain here :) I built TransLite because I was tired of breaking my flow every time I needed to translate something before sending it. The usual workflow was: copy → open a browser tab → paste → translate → copy again → paste back. I've created a small macOS menubar app that lets you translate the current clipboard instantly using a keyboard shortcut, in any app. It works locally and supports using your own OpenAI / Claude API key. It’s intentionally simple — no accounts, no tracking, no subscriptions. Happy to answer any questions. Best regards, David

Parrot▲9My father thinks in Bengali, but typing in native script is painful. Virtual keyboards are slow, punctuation is a maze, and switching between languages breaks flow. For formal writing — emails, letters, posts — it was exhausting. So I built him a tool where he could just speak. He dictated a two-page letter in Bengali, read the transcription, and said: "I didn't even need to change a single comma." That's when I knew this needed to exist. Parrot transcribes and translates speech in 11+ Indian languages. The difference: it's significantly more accurate than Whisper on Hindi, Tamil, Telugu,…
