What it does

Select text anywhere in Windows (Word, Telegram, IDE, browser) and press Ctrl+Shift+E — AI rewrites it in place. Two backends: OpenRouter cloud (one API key for ~300 models) or Ollama local (text never leaves your PC). MIT-licensed core, $19 one-time Pro — never subscription. NativeNET 8 + WPF, 49 MB installer, <1s cold start. Built solo over 4 months.

Select text → hotkey → AI rewrites, fixes errors, or translates it. Works in Word, browser, email — everywhere. Private mode via Ollama.

CapyBro is an AI writing assistant for Windows that works in any app. Select text → press a hotkey → it rewrites, fixes grammar, or translates in place. Use cloud models like GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini, or a fully local AI via Ollama. Works in Word, Outlook, Telegram, your browser, and any IDE. Free version forever. Pro — one-time payment, no subscription. Hi. I want to take vacation next week from Monday to Friday because I have family things. Hope it's not gonna be a problem with work. Dear team, I would like to request leave from next Monday through Friday inclusive due to personal family circumstances. Thank you in advance for your understanding. No bloat, no ads, no tracking.

    I caught myself copy-pasting into ChatGPT like 50 times a day. Too lazy for that, so I built a shortcut. Select text anywhere on Mac, press a hotkey — text gets rewritten &#x2F; translated &#x2F; summarized &#x2F; whatever, right where you are. No tabs, no copy-paste dance. Native Swift app, hooks into macOS accessibility APIs. Bring your own API key and calls go straight to OpenAI &#x2F; Anthropic. Or just use the free tier — 20 requests&#x2F;day, no signup. https:&#x2F;&#x2F;aihotkeys.tech Curious for the feedback

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
