Compose lives in your menu bar and brings AI writing assistance to every app on your Mac. Select text, hit a keyboard shortcut, and get instant proofreading, rewriting, expansion, or tone changes — powered by GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, or Groq. Bring your own API key, no subscription lock-in.
Hey Product Hunt! I'm Aayush, the maker of Compose.
I kept switching between ChatGPT and my writing apps — copy text, paste into a chat, wait for a response, copy back. It broke my flow every time. I wanted AI writing help right where I type.
So I built Compose — a native macOS menu bar app that works system-wide. Here's how it works:
- Select any text in any app
- Hit a keyboard shortcut
- Get instant AI-powered proofreading, rewriting, expansion, or tone changes
- The improved text replaces your selection automatically
What makes it different:
- True native SwiftUI — fast, lightweight, feels like a Mac app should
- Works in every app (Slack, Mail, Notion, Xcode, anywhere)
- BYOK: bring your own API key for GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, or Groq
- Custom prompts and shortcuts for your specific workflows
- Voice dictation for hands-free input
I'd love to hear what you think. Happy to answer any questions!
