Jarq
Translate, shorten, fix or rewrite text right where your cursor is, in any app on your Mac
A macOS menu-bar app that translates, fixes, rewrites and dictates text in place without copy-paste or switching tabs.
Overview

Jarq is a macOS menu-bar app that lets you act on text right where your cursor already is. Select any text in a browser, PDF, Figma, terminal or native window and translate, shorten, fix or rewrite it in place with a hotkey. Press a different hotkey, dictate, and press it again: finished text with punctuation lands at your cursor in any app you're typing in.
The app translates between thirteen languages, whether speaking or working from a selection. Speech is transcribed on the backend by Cloudflare Workers AI or Groq, or entirely on your Mac using the optional local Whisper model, keeping your voice local. Audio and selected text are processed in memory and sent straight back, never stored to train on, and your history file stays on your Mac.

Frequently looked up
- Q1What does Jarq actually do?
- Select text in any app and act on it right where it is—translate, shorten, fix, or rewrite it. Or press a hotkey and dictate finished text straight into the field you're already in. No copy-paste, no switching tabs.
- Q2Which apps does it work in?
- Any app. A browser, a PDF, Figma, a terminal, a native window—select text and the buttons appear beside it. Where an app blocks the selection, ⌥ T reaches the text anyway.
- Q3How is it different from Grammarly or ChatGPT?
- Those live in a browser tab or their own window, so you copy text out, fix it, and paste it back. Jarq makes the same edits in place, in whatever app you're already working in.
- Q4Which languages does it support?
- Thirteen—English, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, French and German among them. Speak one and type another, or translate a selection between any two.
- Q5Is my voice or text stored anywhere?
- No. A recording or a selection becomes text in memory and comes right back—stored nowhere, used to train nothing. History stays on your Mac, and offline recognition keeps your voice local.
