About Jarq

Jarq is a versatile productivity tool designed for Mac users who frequently work with text in various applications. It allows users to translate, shorten, fix, or rewrite any text directly at their cursor, eliminating the need for tedious copy-pasting or switching between apps. With a simple hotkey, users can select text and have it instantly replaced in place, streamlining workflows and saving time. Additionally, Jarq offers voice dictation capabilities, enabling users to speak in one language and receive a clean, translated output in another—supporting 13 languages. Its privacy-focused design ensures that all processing occurs via cloud AI models without storing user text on servers, while local history remains on the user's Mac. The tool offers a free tier with five actions daily and a paid Pro plan for $4.99/month or $39/year, including a 14-day free trial.
