The concept is simple but really practical. I can see this being useful for people who use Chinese every day but want to improve their English naturally.

@luokebi Yes, other languages will be supported soon as well.
Does it work smoothly when switching between Chinese input and normal English typing?
Keysake
@fletcher_graham We’re continually improving the experience to make it feel easier and more natural to use.

@fletcher_graham Thank you, Fletcher, it doesn't change the regular input method switching.
Does it translate the whole thought naturally or mainly use it to surface useful English expressions?
Keysake
@dianarobin Keysake translates what you type in real time.

@dianarobin This depends on the capabilities of the large model, but we will try our best to ensure it retains its original intent.
Is there a way to control how often the English suggestions appear?
Sider Omni Sidebar
@mariusholm Not at this stage, but a shortcut could be added later.
Keysake
@mariusholm Thanks for the great feedback! We’ll give this request careful consideration and include it in a future update.
Does it show show a few natural English options or just one translation?
Keysake
@romainlefort For now, it shows one natural-sounding English translation. We’ll add the option to see other ways to say it in a future update.

@romainlefort Thank you, Romain, could you give an example?
can users customize the type of English vocabulary they want to learn?
Keysake
@angelo_bram You can’t customize vocabulary categories in the current version yet, but it’s something we could consider for a future update.
Congrats on launch! does Keysake adapt to each person’s current English level?
Keysake
@dylan_russell It’s not supported in the current version, but we can consider it for a future update. Thanks for your feedback!
Curious if there are plans for a Windows version eventually but it looks incredibly slick for Mac users.

@priya_kushwaha1 Thanks you Priya! Yes, it’s on our roadmap.
