@leah_dyke Thanks so much! Yes, that’s exactly one of the use cases I built this for — glad you found it useful!
This is super ideal! Could this ever work as a mobile app using the camera?

Love this ! fast, on-device OCR with zero friction is exactly what you want for everyday workflows. The hotkey → select → instant copy loop (especially with Apple Vision under the hood) feels super practical, and the no-data-leaves-your-Mac angle is a big plus.
We also launched on Product Hunt yesterday — building Ogoron, an AI system that generates and maintains test coverage as products evolve. Different space, but same idea of removing small but constant manual steps from daily work

@yanakazantseva1 Thanks so much, this means a lot!
I’m really happy the workflow feels smooth — spent quite some time polishing that “zero friction” experience.
Also love what you're building with Ogoron — removing those tiny but persistent manual steps is such an underrated problem. Congrats on the launch, will check it out!
