Why RewordIt
Works everywhere — not a browser extension. Reword text in any app on your Mac.
Private by default — use Ollama and your text never leaves your machine.
BYO provider — bring your own API key. OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama, or any custom endpoint.
Lightweight — lives in the menu bar. No Electron, no bloat.
