Rephrase selected text with Apple Intelligence.

Writing in a non-native language means constantly second-guessing your phrasing. AI Rephrase fixes that — select awkward text anywhere (Slack, email, docs, IDE), press one shortcut, and it gets rephrased in-place.

Everything happens on-device through Apple's FoundationModels framework. Your text never leaves your Mac. No API keys, no cloud, no subscriptions.

All rephrasings are saved in a persistent, searchable history window so you can review or reuse them later.
