If we’re browsing a webpage or working inside a document, that context rarely carries over. We’re left copying and pasting content between tabs, apps, and windows.

We kept wondering: what if one AI tool could use multiple models and actually understand what’s happening on our screen?

That’s exactly what Fluent claims to do — so we put it to the test.

What Is Fluent for Mac?

Fluent for Mac calls itself an “AI assistant that walks inside every Mac app.” It differs from other AI-based assistants in that Fluent doesn’t rely on a single AI model. Instead, you can bring your own AI model, including ones from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, etc.

The app also packs several context-aware features that ensure both input and output take into account what’s on your screen. Thus, Fluent promises an impressive AI assistant experience on your Mac. Fluent has made this possible through a feature called Smart Panel, which, similar to Spotlight, appears on command.

Fluent App Hands-on Review

We wanted to test how useful Fluent and its contextual AI assistant are in real life. We have been using it on our M2 MacBook Air, which is running the latest version of macOS Tahoe. Setting up Fluent meant a few things, though.

• We uninstalled all other AI assistant apps from our Mac.
• Since Fluent uses the BYOM model, we got API plans from Anthropic and OpenAI.
• We also wanted to check the performance through offline AI models via Studio LM.

Next, a review of the experience with all these options. As with other tools, your experience would vary widely depending on the environment. However, we wanted to check how viable an alternative Fluent is for all things AI on our Mac.

Setup, User Interface, and Experience

The setup process is simple for technical users, but non-technical users may find API configuration and model selection slightly overwhelming at first.

Setup

As we mentioned earlier, Fluent does not have a subscription or any built-in AI model. Instead, it expects you to bring your own AI model. You can do it via:

• APIs
• Running LLMs locally using apps like Studio LM
• Relying on Apple Intelligence

We should also clarify that the API method is the most efficient one, especially if you have a low-performance Mac.

We tested the process with all other options, and running LLMs locally with Studio LM or Apple Intelligence takes up a lot of resources.

Even though you can use a free tier plan for testing, you’d need a paid plan to get a decent AI assistance experience in the long term. We configured the APIs for Anthropic (Claude) and OpenAI (ChatGPT), and we were good to start.

The UI

We found the user interface to be impressive from the get-go. Most of the things that you do with Fluent happen through the smart panel that appears, similar to how Spotlight or Raycast appears on top of the screen.

However, there is a settings pane you can access to manage options such as models, actions, and other shortcuts.

This settings window also lets you customize a hell out of Fluent and the AI assistance experience across all the applications. For instance, you can explore how Memory works and set up a variety of MCP integrations. There are also options to explore features like history and blacklisting.

Experience

Overall, we wouldn’t call this experience beginner-friendly; however, compared to how difficult it is to build an AI assistant tool, it is. Setting up and customizing Fluent for your AI assistant needs is pretty straightforward.

Core Features Check

Here is what we think of the core features Fluent offers. Of course, we do not want to give you a list of features; instead, we will discuss how effective these features are at providing a unique AI-assistance experience across your Mac.

Smart Panel

As we said earlier, a Smart Panel is where all the magic about Fluent happens. This works as an overlay that appears on top of everything that you are working with; however, it smartly captures the context of what you are working on. Whether it’s a webpage, document, or native app, Fluent captures the visible context and routes it directly into your AI prompt.

Here’s an example:

We’re on the Fluent page, looking at the Pricing section. When we bring up Smart Panel and ask, “Which plan is more cost-effective?”, we don’t have to specify anything. Instead, Smart Panel considers the webpage as the context and gives us a relevant response. On other AI apps, we would have to copy and paste the webpage URL to get the same response.

Like other aspects of Fluent, the Smart Panel is also pretty customizable. You can customize how it appears, how it behaves, and how your actions will affect the behavior. You can also Pin and Unpin the Smart Panel interface as you wish.

AI Model Support

Fluent offers native support for over 500 AI models that you can set up using API keys. You get native support for providers such as Google, Anthropic, Perplexity, OpenAI, Grok, OpenRouter, etc.

Apple Intelligence is a smart option if you don’t want to spend anything further to bring AI capabilities to your assistants. You simply have to enable Apple Intelligence on your Mac to use this feature.

The other option is to use Local LLMs, which work through applications like Studio LM. We tried this option, but the problem is the amount of pressure the local LLM would put on your Mac. As a result, you may experience slower responses when multitasking, compared to using a paid Google or Anthropic API key.

Context Awareness

While the ability to switch between multiple AI models and platforms is impressive, context awareness makes Fluent a unique option for your AI needs. Once you enable Application Context and Browser Context in Settings, Fluent captures the screen context in real time. Here’s how it works:

Let’s say that we’re watching a YouTube video. Now, if we want a summary of the video, we can simply ask Fluent to provide one. Fluent will understand the page we have open and provide us with a detailed overview, thanks to its integration with YouTube.

Similarly, if we want the AI to respond based on a particular document, we can upload it and chat with it. Similarly, when we have a Google Docs document open on a browser, the responses will be based on that context as well.

In our testing, context capture was accurate in most browser and native app scenarios, though occasional misreads can happen depending on the model used.

Actions and Customization

Fluent also lets you create easy-to-access actions that you can add to the Smart Panel favorites. Alternatively, you can configure keyboard shortcuts for these actions and launch them right away. This is great if your workflow involves repetitive actions.

For instance, we can launch this action to get a list of synonyms. We just have to ensure that we have selected the text.

Web Browsing and Fetching

Unlike many of its competitors, Fluent offers built-in support for web browsing and web fetching. Whereas its web search function lets you find information from the web using basic search and deep research, you’d have better luck with web fetch for complex tasks where you need to fetch a webpage URL.

Let’s say you are visiting an Amazon page and want to know what other reviews outside of Amazon say about this product. You can simply ask Fluent to do this, and it should give you results based on the web search. It is also handy when you need a quick web search result without opening a separate tab/window.

MCP and Memory (RAG)

You can bring additional capabilities to the AI Engine using MCP and RAG Memory.

• MCP, which stands for Model Context Protocol, allows you to connect to over 7,000 external MCP servers and get agent tasks done.
• The Memory section of the Fluent App allows you to add certain aspects to the Engine Memory. These elements will be used when the AI Engine gives you a response.

For instance, we can add an About Me section that shares some instructions. Similarly, we can add documents to a folder to customize the writing style and response.

We found both tools impressive while setting up an optimized workflow.

Privacy

The customization features built into Fluent also help you ensure optimal privacy according to your requirements. For what it’s worth, the application does not collect, process, or store any kind of data except when you are verifying the license code. Even when it comes to history, everything stays encrypted, and the memory files you add are stored on your device.

Fluent Pricing

Fluent is a premium app available for macOS. You can choose between three plans: Basic, Standard, and Team.

• The Basic plan gives you access to one Mac, offers lifetime upgrades, and costs $49.
• The Standard plan gives you access to two Macs and costs $69.
• The Team plan costs $29 per Mac, with a minimum of 3 devices.

The company offers a 30% discount to educational institutions, teachers, and students. We found this pricing plan keeps long-term costs far below subscription-based alternatives.​ But keep in mind that ongoing API usage costs will depend on the models you choose and how frequently you use them.

Fluent vs. Competitors

Here’s how Fluent compares to some other AI assistant apps available for Mac:

Fluent is the most technically capable option in this group — particularly in RAG and MCP integrations. However, users who prioritize simplicity or built-in browsing may prefer MindMac.

Who Should Use Fluent? (or not)

Fluent is great for:

• Mac-native power users who want AI assistance across every application without switching windows.
• Writers and content creators who need in-context rewriting, tone control, and prompt shortcuts within their existing workflow.
• Privacy-conscious users who prefer local model support (Ollama, MLX, LM Studio) with no telemetry or cloud dependency.
• Developers and technical users who can leverage MCP server integrations and dynamic prompt variables.
• AI hobbyists and researchers who want access to 500+ models through their own API keys without being locked into a single provider.

Who should skip Fluent?

If you just want a simple, pre‑configured AI chatbot with no setup or API management, Fluent is probably overkill.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Works instantly in any macOS app via a system-wide Smart Panel.
• 500+ AI models and persistent RAG memory and MCP support.
• Native Swift build ensures fast, lightweight performance on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.​
• One-time purchase with lifetime upgrades.

Cons

• Exclusively macOS — no cross-platform access.
• Need to manage API keys.

TheSweetBits Verdict

In daily use, Fluent has proven to be one of the most capable system‑wide AI tools we’ve tested on macOS, and we no longer have to juggle content between apps or windows just to get helpful answers.

Unlike typical “pro” AI plans, Fluent’s bring‑your‑own‑API approach lets you mix and match models freely, so you aren’t locked into a single provider’s limits — and you can still layer in local models if you want everything to stay on‑device.

Overall, Fluent is best for Mac power users who don’t mind configuring APIs and actions and who want a single, context‑aware AI layer across macOS — but it’s still not the ideal pick if you’re looking for a dead‑simple, plug‑and‑play chatbot or need a cross‑platform solution.

<p>The post Fluent: The sweet AI companion we now use across our Mac first appeared on TheSweetBits.</p>

At a glance, Granola feels familiar. It looks and behaves a lot like Apple Notes.

But under the hood, it quietly does something far more ambitious: it listens to your meeting, then enhances the notes you wrote, instead of replacing them.

That distinction is what makes Granola special.

What Is Granola AI?

Granola is an AI-powered meeting notes tool available as a native app on macOS and iPhone.

But unlike most AI meeting assistants, Granola does not try to automate note-taking end to end. Instead, it’s built around a clear division of labor:

• You write what you’re thinking
• AI captures what everyone is saying
• After the meeting, AI combines both into a clean, structured note

Think of it as:

Apple Notes + meeting transcription + post-meeting AI enrichment

The Granola Experience

We’ve tested Granola on MacBook Air M2, and here’s our hands-on experience.

Note: On macOS, Granola runs as an app that records system audio (with your permission) and doesn’t join the call as a visible bot, so it works across Zoom, Meet, Teams, and more without extra integrations.

During the meeting: A blank notebook that respects your brain

When you’re in a meeting with Granola open, the interface feels almost deceptively simple.

On the left: a blank notebook

Your job: write down whatever is in your head

• Questions
• Half-formed ideas
• TODOs
• Reactions
• Messy, incomplete thoughts

Meanwhile, Granola’s AI quietly listens and captures what everyone is saying in the background.

There’s no pressure to structure your notes. No formatting rules. No “smart templates” fighting your thinking.

You just think. And type.

This alone already feels liberating.

After the meeting: notes, enhanced

When the meeting ends, Granola doesn’t just dump a summary or transcript on you.

Instead, it enhances the notes you actually wrote, using the full meeting context.

Your rough notes are transformed into:

• Clear, readable meeting summaries
• Action items with proper background
• Decisions tied to the discussions that led to them
• Ideas that suddenly make sense again days later

Crucially, the output still feels like your notes—just sharper, cleaner, and more complete.

This is human–AI collaboration done right.

A clear philosophy: humans think, AI remembers

Granola doesn’t build its own foundation models. That’s not the point.

What impressed us most—especially after listening to the founder’s interview—is how clear their product philosophy is.

Granola is built on a strict division of responsibility:

• Humans: capture intent, judgment, intuition, and ideas
• AI: capture memory, accuracy, and completeness

Instead of fighting large language models or trying to outsmart them, Granola works with them—and, crucially, avoids building features that models will inevitably do better over time.

This mindset is surprisingly rare in AI apps.

The Granola Features

Beyond its core interaction model, Granola includes a few practical features that make it usable for real teams—not just thoughtful individuals.

A new interface

Granola’s recent visual refresh reinforces its core philosophy: fewer distractions, more thinking.

The interface stays intentionally notebook-like, with AI kept mostly invisible during meetings. Rather than showcasing AI features, Granola prioritizes focus, writing flow, and clarity—an increasingly rare choice in modern productivity tools.

This design restraint reinforces Granola’s belief that AI should support thinking—not compete for attention.

Customizable templates

Granola supports customizable templates, which makes it practical for real teams—not just solo users.
You can structure notes differently depending on the meeting type, such as:

• Customer discovery calls
• User interviews
• 1-on-1s
• Internal syncs

Instead of forcing one “AI summary format”, Granola adapts to how your team already works.
That’s a subtle but important product decision.

Granola Chat

Granola also includes a built-in chat interface that lets you ask questions about your meeting notes after the fact.

Instead of chatting with a general-purpose AI, you’re chatting with your own thinking—grounded in what you wrote and what was said in the meeting.

You can use Granola Chat to:

• Clarify decisions or unresolved questions
• Extract action items or next steps
• Turn notes into follow-up emails or summaries
• Revisit meetings days or weeks later with full context

Importantly, chat is positioned as a post-meeting thinking tool—not a live distraction. This fits Granola’s philosophy of letting humans think first and AI assist later.

One-Click sharing

Granola makes it easy to share notes with one click on the platforms your team already uses.

This reinforces Granola’s role as a workflow tool, not just a personal AI assistant. It doesn’t try to become another closed collaboration platform—it plugs into existing ones.

Again, a very application-layer mindset.

The Product Philosophy (From the Founder)

After using Granola, we listened to the founder’s recent interview—and it explains a lot about why the product feels so well thought out.

High-frequency use is the key

The team believes:

• Low-frequency tasks → users go straight to ChatGPT
• High-frequency tasks (like meetings) → apps still matter

Since many people attend multiple meetings every day, even small UX improvements compound quickly.

Granola is built specifically for that repetition.

Don’t build what models will inevitably do

Early versions of Granola only supported 30-minute meetings, which some users complained about.

The team deliberately chose not to work around this, believing that LLM context windows would expand anyway—and that this was a model problem, not an app problem.

That restraint is rare, and it paid off.

Deep user co-creation beats metrics alone

Before launch, the Granola team worked with 100+ users over nearly a year, iterating on interaction design.

The founder also made a point we strongly agree with:

• Data alone isn’t enough
• User feedback alone isn’t enough
• Good product intuition comes from lots of user conversations

Granola’s interaction design feels like the result of that process—not an accident.

Why Granola Matters for the AI Application Layer

We believe Granola doesn’t try to compete with foundation models.
It doesn’t chase every new AI capability.
And it doesn’t overload the UI with “AI features”.

Instead, it focuses on:

• Clear human–AI role separation
• Thoughtful interaction design
• Enhancing existing workflows instead of replacing them

This is what real AI application-layer innovation looks like.

Who Granola Is For

Granola is especially well-suited for:

• People who spend a lot of time in meetings
• Teams that care about thinking, not just transcripts
• Users who love Apple Notes–style simplicity
• Anyone tired of AI tools that feel clever but unhelpful

It doesn’t try to think for you. It helps you think better.

The Pricing

Granola offers a tiered pricing model that makes it easy to get started while scaling with heavier usage.

• The free plan suitable for trying out Granola’s core experience
• For individuals or small teams who spend a lot of time in meetings, the paid plan ($14 per user per month) is best viewed as a productivity upgrade rather than a simple note-taking app.
• Enterprise plan ($35 per user per month) is also available for shared workflows and collaboration.

Pricing and plan details are subject to change as Granola continues to evolve.

Final Verdict

Granola is one of the most impressive AI productivity tools we’ve used recently—not because it does more, but because it does the right things.

By respecting human cognition and using AI as a memory and enrichment layer, Granola shows what the future of AI apps should look like.

For us, it’s not just a great tool—it’s a product worth studying.

Why Eney Exists

Most AI tools today live in the cloud. They’re great at writing and explaining—but terrible at actually doing things on your Mac. Eney exists to close that gap. It isn’t being marketed as just an app, but as a “Computerbeing”—a digital partner that lives on your desktop.

Here’s what Eney can actually do:

• Gets what you’re saying and gets your context
• Goes beyond a chat — it actually solves tasks on Mac
• Learns what you like and adapts to your preferences
• Completes many tasks locally, without sending your data anywhere.

As Oleksandr Kosovan, Founder and CEO of MacPaw, puts it:

“We are developing Eney to simplify workflows and reduce the time, and sometimes headaches, that users experience when interacting with their devices. Eney’s single, universal interface will eliminate the need to switch between applications. Eney is your digital co-creator. Its fun nature simplifies interaction — just tell it what task you would like to perform, and it will do the rest.”

Watch the Eney official video:

Our Experience with Eney

We’ve been living with Eney for the past week, and while the vision is sweet, the reality is a bit of a mixed bag. Here is our full breakdown.

The setup

After installing Eney, the first thing you’ll notice is that it requires Full Disk Access to function properly. This is essential for its task-oriented promise — searching files, reading calendars, interacting with apps — but it’s still a big permission ask.

During initial setup, Eney downloads its local AI models, which power its various “skills”. Once complete, the assistant is ready to use and immediately visible on your desktop.

From a UX standpoint, the onboarding is smooth, but the permission requirements may give more cautious users pause — even though MacPaw is generally a trusted name in the Mac ecosystem.

The vision

The “Sweetness” of Eney lies in its ambition. Unlike web-based AI, Eney is built to:

Tell your Mac what you want to do — in natural language — and Eney will actually do it.

Not suggest steps.
Not explain how.
But perform the action.

In theory, this includes tasks like you can simply tell it to “Schedule a meeting,” “Search for a file,” or “Compress this image,” and it will perform the action rather than just explaining how to do it.

This positions Eney as something more ambitious than Siri or a generic AI chatbot — closer to a true AI operator for macOS.

At the time of writing, Eney already supports workflows with services like Google Drive, Google Calendar, and Google Docs, though the depth of these integrations varies depending on permissions and the specific task. It’s a solid start, but still far from the seamless, end-to-end automation MacPaw is ultimately aiming for.

The local advantage

Where Eney truly differentiates itself is its local-first architecture. Instead of sending everything to the cloud, Eney downloads its AI models during setup and runs them directly on your Mac.

Recently, MacPaw shifted Eney’s architecture so that it now runs primarily on local models by default.

In practice, this means:

• AI models are stored and executed locally.
• Many core tasks work offline.
• Your personal data isn’t automatically uploaded to remote servers.

This design choice reflects MacPaw’s long-standing privacy philosophy — and it immediately sets Eney apart from most AI assistants on the market.

Why This Matters

For many Mac users, privacy isn’t an abstract concern. Calendar events, file names, system data, and app usage patterns are deeply personal. Eney’s local approach ensures that everyday interactions — searching files, checking system status, triggering maintenance actions — stay on your machine.

When Eney does need more power (for example, long-form summaries or more complex reasoning), it asks for your permission before using cloud processing. That explicit consent model is rare in today’s AI landscape, and we genuinely appreciate it.

The Trade-Off

Local AI comes with unavoidable constraints. Because Eney relies on on-device models and Apple silicon hardware, its “intelligence” is currently more narrow than cloud-based AI assistants.

As a result:

• Model size and reasoning ability are limited
• Task complexity is constrained
• Results can feel underwhelming compared to cloud-heavy tools like ChatGPT

Within those limits, Eney performs best at practical, system‑level tasks on your Mac—things like file search, system checks, basic conversions, and triggering maintenance actions—rather than open‑ended conversation or deep reasoning.

In other words, Eney intentionally trades raw intelligence for stronger privacy and on‑device control, which is great for sensitive tasks but limiting if you expect a full cloud‑level AI brain.

The real-world testing

In our hands-on testing, however, the “intelligence” felt more like a work-in-progress. We tried using natural language to “Add a meeting to the macOS Calendar,” but Eney failed to perform the task or couldn’t even open the Calendar app. This may be related to system permissions, but the behavior felt inconsistent.

Strangely, when we typed:

“Find yesterday / today / tomorrow”

Eney was able to:

• Query calendar events correctly
• Open the Calendar app successfully

However, when it comes to opening apps, Eney currently behaves in an unintuitive way:

• Typing the exact app name works
• Saying “open XX app” in natural language often results in an error

Weather queries are also unsupported at the moment, which feels like a basic omission for an assistant positioned as a daily companion.

For pure AI conversational use, Eney’s local model frequently produces hallucinations. One particularly telling example: it confidently described Heated Rivalry as a book about technology and business competition — which is simply incorrect.

At this stage, we found the experience felt remarkably similar to using a slightly more visual version of Siri.

How Does Eney Compare?

In the world of Mac AI, not all assistants are created equal. While ChatGPT is great for brainstorming and Siri is fine for setting timers, Eney tries to occupy the space in between: Local Privacy + System Action.

Our take: Siri is deeply integrated but often feels “stiff” and restricted to Apple’s first-party apps. Eney feels more modern and conversational, with the potential to control third-party apps through its growing “Skills” library. But it’s not the kind of advanced, analytical consultant that ChatGPT excels at.

Where Eney Fits in a Real Mac Workflow

Eney is best thought of as a local task executor, not a thinking partner.

It works best when you:

• Know what you want done
• Prefer privacy over raw intelligence
• Want results without bouncing between apps

In that role, it already shows promise.

For open-ended conversation, research, or creative writing, cloud-based tools like ChatGPT remain far more capable.

Pricing & Availability

Before you dive in, it’s important to be clear about Eney’s current constraints:

• Beta software — features change frequently
• Apple silicon (M-series) Macs only
• Exclusive to Setapp subscribers
• Not available as a standalone app (yet)

This means you’ll need an active Setapp subscription to invite this little AI companion onto your desktop.

Who it’s For (and Who Should Skip it)

Best for:

• Privacy-conscious Mac users on Apple silicon who are curious about local AI.
• Existing Setapp subscribers who like trying early, ambitious utilities.
• People who want an on-device helper for small system tasks, not long conversations.

Not a good fit for:

• Intel Mac users (not supported).
• Anyone expecting ChatGPT-level reasoning or a stable, polished assistant.
• Users who are uncomfortable granting Full Disk Access in early beta software.

FAQs

Q: Does Eney work offline?

A: Yes! Because Eney uses a local engine (ELIX), it can perform core tasks like file conversions, system cleanups, and basic searches without an internet connection. Only “heavy” tasks like long summaries or third-party cloud integrations (like Google Drive) require a connection and your explicit permission.

Q: Is my data safe?

A: This is Eney’s biggest strength. Unlike ChatGPT, your conversation history and “context search” data are stored locally on your Mac. MacPaw does not use your data to train their models.

Q: Why can’t I install it on my Intel Mac?

A: Eney relies on the Neural Engine found in Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4 chips) to run its AI models locally. Older Intel-based Macs simply don’t have the specific hardware architecture required to run these models efficiently.

Q: Is Eney a replacement for Siri?

A: Not officially. Siri still excels at Apple ecosystem and HomeKit commands, while Eney is being built for deeper third-party workflows and local task execution. Today, neither fully replaces the other.

Q: How do I get it?

A: Currently, Eney is in Beta and is exclusively available to Setapp users. If you have a Setapp subscription, you can find it in the app library and start using it immediately.

TheSweetBits Take

Eney represents one of the most interesting ideas in the Mac AI space right now — not because it’s powerful today, but because of what it’s trying to become.

We admire:

• The local-first, privacy-respecting architecture.
• The clear intent to move beyond “chatbot AI”.
• The tight alignment with macOS workflows.

But in its current beta form, Eney:

• Struggles with natural language execution.
• Suffers from inconsistent app control.
• Produces frequent hallucinations in conversation.
• Doesn’t yet outperform Siri in day-to-day usefulness.

For now, Eney feels like a promising assistant in training, not a dependable productivity partner.

If MacPaw can improve task reliability, expand system integrations, and gradually enhance its local AI capabilities, Eney could eventually become a standout Mac companion — especially for privacy-conscious users.

We’ll be watching its progress closely.

• VideoProc Converter AI is one of the most complete “convert + enhance + compress + download + edit + record” toolkits.
• The new AI Super Resolution engine (up to 4×) restores old SD or 720p footage to remarkably clean 4K, though it isn’t as razor-detailed as Topaz Video AI.
• Apple Silicon performance is excellent — far faster and more thermally efficient than most AI upscalers.
• Great for creators, families digitizing old media, and anyone who wants an easy all-in-one tool without a steep learning curve.
• Not ideal if you need pro-level color grading or studio-grade restoration.

VideoProc has long been known as a “Swiss-army toolkit” for Mac and Windows users handling media files. With the launch of VideoProc Converter AI, it’s grown into a more modern, more capable suite—combining GPU-accelerated video converting, AI upscaling, frame interpolation, stabilization, video enhancement, and a set of practical tools most editors actually use day-to-day.

What Is VideoProc Converter AI?

VideoProc Converter AI is an all-in-one media software suite for macOS and Windows that bundles:

• Video conversion
• AI upscaling (video + images) and AI enhancer
• Video compression
• Quick editing tools
• Video downloading
• DVD ripping
• Screen recording

Its appeal lies in handling many media tasks inside one clean, unified interface, something rare in a market where most tools specialize in just one area (e.g., Topaz for upscaling, HandBrake for conversion, ScreenFlow for recording).

VideoProc Hands-On Testing

We spent weeks testing the Mac version across macOS Sequoia and the newer macOS Tahoe on both M1 Max and M3 Pro systems. Here’s how it performs.

The Core Video Conversion

VideoProc’s conversion engine remains one of the sweet video conversion tools on macOS, thanks to full support for:

• Supports 370+ input and 420+ output formats, including HEVC, ProRes, AV1, and specific profiles for every device (iPhone, iPad, PS5, etc.).
• Apple Silicon hardware acceleration (M1 → M4).
• Intel Quick Sync (older Macs).
• Level-3 GPU acceleration for HEVC/H.264, 4K, HDR, and large batches.

Performance in Our Tests:

VideoProc consistently feels more responsive and less resource-hungry than UniConverter, and much easier to control than FFmpeg or HandBrake for users who don’t want to touch manual presets.

And, for Mac users, the software’s optimization for Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4) is a critical selling point. VideoProc utilizes Level-3 Hardware Acceleration across Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, and Apple GPUs.

This deep integration means that conversion and heavy AI processing tasks are offloaded almost entirely from the CPU, resulting in processing speeds up to 47 times faster than software relying solely on software-based conversion. When converting a massive 4K/HEVC file to a more widely compatible format like H.264, the process is blisteringly fast and keeps your Mac responsive for other tasks—a true real-world benefit we value highly.

The Upgraded AI Tools

The star of the VideoProc show is undoubtedly the AI suite, offering professional restoration that was previously cumbersome or impossible for average users. This is where the “AI” in its name truly shines, particularly for salvaging legacy footage from old camcorders, DVDs, or action cameras.

• AI Super Resolution & Restoration

This feature is a game-changer for anyone dealing with low-resolution video (480p, 720p, or 1080p footage). Unlike simple mathematical upscaling, which just enlarges pixels, VideoProc Converter AI’s Super Resolution V3 model is trained on neural networks to intelligently predict and generate new, missing details.

We found it could upscale videos by up to 400% (turning soft 1080p into clean 4K) while simultaneously removing grain, noise, and compression artifacts. If you have old Mini DV tapes or interlaced footage, the integrated Deinterlace function cleans up those horizontal flicker lines beautifully, giving us footage that looks genuinely modern.

• AI Frame Interpolation (Silky Smooth Motion)

For older clips shot at low frame rates (like 15 fps or 24 fps), or for creating high-quality slow-motion, the AI Frame Interpolation tool generates entirely new frames based on motion estimation. This enables ultra-smooth motion interpolation (up to 5× frame rate increase). delivering the professional look needed for modern platforms. In our tests, this was indispensable for making old time-lapse footage look fluid and cinematic.

• AI Stabilization (Fixing Shaky Action)

Shaky footage from handheld devices, drones, or action cameras is now instantly salvageable. The dedicated AI Stabilization tool analyzes motion vectors across frames, providing a far more precise correction than traditional software. We used it on some particularly jarring GoPro footage and were genuinely impressed by how stable the final clip became, often requiring minimal cropping. This adds serious practical value for content creators.

• AI Audio Enhancement

The AI functionality isn’t limited to visuals. The dedicated audio tools solve common post-production headaches:

Vocal Remover: We can cleanly strip vocals from music tracks for karaoke or remix purposes, which performs well, even on complex mixes.

Noise Suppression: This is a lifesaver for cleaning up background hum, wind noise, or static, allowing us to focus on the speaker’s voice.

• AI Image Upscaler & Face Restoration

VideoProc Converter AI isn’t just for videos. It includes an Image AI module to expand its AI capabilities to the field of image enhancement. The Image Super Resolution can upscale low-resolution photos to stunning 8K or even 10K resolution. Crucially, it includes Face Restoration to sharpen blurry faces in old portraits and Photo Colorization to breathe life back into faded or black-and-white family memories.

The Comprehensive Media Toolbox

What is Rewind, and How it Works

Rewind AI is a groundbreaking, install-and-forget application designed to provide a complete, context-rich AI assistant experience. It constantly captures your Mac’s screen, records microphone and system audio, and compresses everything locally for privacy. This allows Rewind to have an unparalleled understanding of your daily digital life.

Rewind’s functionality is driven by two primary components:

The first component is the one that records the screen and audio of your Mac. This will then compress the entire thing and store everything locally on your device. According to Rewind, this data never leaves your Mac. So, you don’t have to worry about someone else accessing your microphone recordings or screen-sharing info.

The other component is the AI engine that can intelligently search and let you know what you were doing in everything. There are two primary functions.

One, you can search Rewind to find screenshots that contain the thing that you search for. The second thing is an AI ask feature where an LLM will help you understand and come up with insightful info based on your recordings. However, when you use Ask Rewind features like meeting summarization, some text-based data will be sent to the LLM partners.

These components work together to make Rewind AI a true, context-aware AI assistant.

Our Hands-on Rewind AI Review

After a week of thoroughly testing Rewind AI on our M2 MacBook Air, we found it consistently contributed to our workflow while running quietly in the background.

Getting started

Installation was remarkably straightforward. A quick download from the official site and a few necessary permissions had us up and running in minutes. The app primarily lives in the menu bar, and since most functions are local, you don’t even need an account for core usage (though a paid subscription requires one).

History Search

In many ways, Rewind AI works as a complete backup of whatever you’re doing. But unlike a typical backup that you take using something like Time Machine, Rewind AI lets you search through any of it. Let’s say that we’re writing about a particular product, and we want to know where we’re doing all these things.

So instead of going through multiple documents and applications, we can use the search function on Rewind AI to find out whenever this word or this product is mentioned. It gives us a very interactive UI consisting of all the instances of the word, and we can go back to that particular screenshot to understand what happens.

Because Rewind AI takes screenshots every once in a while, you get a complete picture of what you were doing on a particular application or throughout the day. The Search interface lets me filter results based on apps and meetings as well. You can also find your favorite moments using the Star function.

AI-powered Assistant

Rewind AI works as a powerful AI-powered assistant as well, where it uses the GPT-4 engine to understand what you have been doing on your Mac and give you descriptive and actionable info. So, as you can see on this interface, we’re asking Rewind: what have we been doing with this thing called Rewind?

Rewind AI is smart enough to give us an answer that not only tells us what we have done but also provides some insights based on the activities. Similarly, you can ask multiple things about your workflow or the applications that you have been using to get summaries.

Let’s say that you want to create a report of what you have been doing in relation to one particular project. The Ask Rewind feature will help you come up with well-crafted responses that you can use on the go. Keep in mind that this function will share your data with LLM partners, though.

Meeting Recording

As we said earlier, Rewind AI not only captures the screen but also records the microphone along with system audio. This means the tool can record a meeting regardless of whether you are hosting it. It does so without adding those annoying bots to Google Meet or Zoom.

We tested this feature, and Rewind AI did a great job at content transcription. Because Rewind AI can record audio from a microphone and the system, it can help you capture meeting content even from not-so-popular meeting apps. Once the recording is done, you can use other features to access this data. Or, you can go back and listen to these meetings with precise time stamps.

For instance, you can ask Rewind AI to draft an email or come up with shareable meeting notes. The meeting notes from Rewind AI can include information from documents/images shown on the screen as well. We’re really impressed by the transcription/content analysis capacity of the Rewind AI engines.

In the end, we believe the core features of Rewind AI offer so much value. We also liked how customizable all these features are. For instance, you get to decide what happens when you join a meeting. Similarly, the function of connecting the calendar to the Rewind AI app can make things easier during a busy schedule.

System Performance & Impact

Rewind AI does a lot of things in the background, even when you don’t see it running. So you might wonder about its impact on system performance. We must hand it to the developers behind Rewind for keeping it so energy-efficient. In our experience, Rewind AI does not consume a lot of system resources.

However, we see a slight bump in RAM usage at times. However, this usage does not impact how we use the Mac otherwise. Even while handling multiple documents on various apps, Rewind kept recording, and all the details were available to us later.

Rewind AI uses some of the best compression engines to store the captured screenshots and audio. Thanks to this, we had less than 2GB of data even after using the recording function for a whole week. The app says it will use around 14GB of data per month, but you can limit the retention period to save storage space.

Privacy & Security

You may also have some privacy and security concerns while using the app. To be clear, the app does not store any of its data on the cloud. Everything is stored locally, and only a bit of text-based data is transferred when you want to use the Ask Rewind features.

In addition, you have better control over how the recording works. For instance, you can set up Rewind to exclude applications that you don’t want to be recorded. Similarly, it has a default function that prevents data from being recorded from incognito and private windows for popular browsers like Chrome, Safari, Arc, etc.

Overall, Rewind AI has achieved a decent balance between features and AI. So, unless you mind LLMs having access to some bit of your data, you can use Rewind AI worry-free.

Availability & Pricing

Rewind AI is available for macOS and iOS, with a Windows version coming soon.

A free plan offers core recording, but for limitless AI, search, and meeting features, the Rewind Pro plan is $19/month. A 30-day free trial of Rewind Pro is available to experience its full capabilities.

Rewind AI Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comprehensive capture and recall with deep macOS integration.
• Reliable AI assistant for summarization and insights.
• Intuitive UI design.
• Minimal system resource impact.
• Primarily local data storage for privacy.

Cons

• Some AI assistant features involve sharing limited data with LLM partners.
• Free version has limited AI assistant features.

Our Final Take

After testing all its core features for over a week, we believe Rewind AI is a sweet choice for most users, especially those who, like us, manage a lot of digital information daily and struggle with recall. Its ability to keep track of everything you do on your Mac and help you interact with that information is transformative.

If you want to extend this “listening power” beyond the desktop, Rewind AI’s developer, Limitless AI, also offers the Limitless Pendant. This smart wearable captures and analyzes real-world audio, providing actionable insights for meetings and daily conversations. The company plans to integrate many of Rewind’s features into the Limitless platform, offering a broader suite of AI-powered memory tools.

Aiarty Image Matting, an AI-powered image matting suite, is an exception here, though. It claims to bring all the power of accurate and reliable image matting without requiring advanced-level expertise. The next time you want to remove the background of an image or do advanced alpha matting, this tool may be an option.

About Aiarty Image Matting

Aiarty Image Matting is an image manipulation software like Photoshop, Luminar, or GIMP. However, unlike these all-in-one suites, Aiarty Image Matting focuses on tasks like image matting, background removal, etc. More so, it uses powerful AI engines and algorithms to make the distinction between multiple layers of the image.

“Traditional free background removers often struggle with intricate details such as hair strands, shadows, or transparent elements, leaving users frustrated.

With Aiarty Image Matting, we’ve trained our AI models on over 320,000 diverse images, enabling our free image background remover to deliver unmatched precision and reliability – even in challenging scenarios.

Our goal is to make professional-grade image background removal accessible to everyone, regardless of technical expertise.”

— Gary Lee, Development Director at Aiarty

Aiarty Image Matting is not for those common instances when you need a fancy-style profile picture. On the other hand, the tool deals with images in such a way that your end products look as professional as possible. From graphic designers to photo editors, most professionals can benefit from what Aiarty Image Matting offers.

Aiarty Image Matting Review (TheSweetBits Take)

We were really impressed by the claims that Aiarty Image Matting software makes. But we wanted to check how these claims translate into the real-world experience.

Therefore, we decided to use the software for background removal and alpha matting on some images that we came across. These included typical portrait photographs, e-commerce photographs, and product images that we had to hand-do as part of our work.

During the testing, we felt it important to test the multiple features and AI engines that Aiarty Image Matting offers. Therefore, in addition to trying the images built into the tool, we threw a few images that are not that common in typical datasets.

About Our Testing: All our testing was done on an M2 MacBook Air running the latest version of macOS Sequoia. We are dealing with 8GB of Unified Memory and 256GB of storage space. Though M2 is better than M1, it is not an AI-optimized chip like M3 or M4.

Setup & User Interface

Setup is simple: download, sign up, and you’re ready to go. The app is snappy and feels lightweight, even on an entry-level M2 chip. Once inside, the UI is clean and intuitive. You load an image, choose your preferred AI engine (SolidMat, AlphaMatting, AlphaStandard, etc.), and generate a matte.

• SolidMat works great for objects and products.
• AlphaStandard is better for human subjects.
• AlphaMatting (experimental) pushes the boundaries for tricky hair and soft transitions.

Depending on the action, you will have to download the AI model from Aiarty Image Matting. This process may take up to a few minutes, depending on your Internet connection. After the app downloads the engine, you need to wait for the interface before you can start editing/background removal/matting.

The UI offers side-by-side previews of your original and masked image, and you can toggle between matting types easily. No clutter, no confusion.

Most of the screen real estate is dedicated to the canvas, where you can see the full preview of an image. On the right side, you can see multiple editing options and the selection between AI engines. The bottom pane is where you can keep all the images and choose between them for easy access.

Our take: We must add that we were not really testing the app on a so-called AIPC. Sure, Apple’s M2 chips are somewhat optimized for AI-based tasks, but they don’t really compare to M3 or M4 chips. What we are saying here is that you can expect better performance if your Mac or PC has an AI-optimized processor.

Background Removal

We should first mention that Aiarty Image Matting does not offer a dedicated background removal tool for images. Instead, this feature is built into the image matting module.

The impressive part is that you can choose one of four AI engines from the developer. Though all four AI models are optimized for intelligent image matting, even the least powerful model can smoothly remove image backgrounds.

In our testing, we used all four AI models to remove backgrounds from images:

• The SolidMat engine works best for images of objects like clothing, phones, etc. It is ideal for e-commerce photography projects.
• The AlphaStandard model is great for images with multiple humans or other objects. We found it to be best for wedding photography or situations requiring selective transparency. It allows finer control when working with detailed elements.

Of course, you can use advanced editing and refinement tools with any engine. But if you just want quick background removal, any AI model will handle the task well right out of the box.

For what it’s worth, background removal tools are everywhere these days. However, if you prefer not to share photos with third parties or need better accuracy and performance, Aiarty Image Matting is the better choice.

Image Matting

Image matting is where you can witness its real potential. It has been built and optimized for professional-grade image matting needs, so it’s unsurprising that you get some great results from the tool. Let’s take a look at everything step by step.

When you open an image, you first need to choose the Image Matting AI options. Here, you can select one of the AI models as well as hardware preferences:

• CPU and GPU
• CPU
• All Units

The Edit subsection helps you enhance, rotate, flip, or crop the image as needed. Aiarty Image Matting also lets you pick one of the three AI Enhance models. You can even enhance and export an image without fully matting it. Here are some observations:

• The Real Photo v3 engine works great with complex photographs containing multiple elements.
• For product photographs, all three models worked well.
• The Enhancement level can be selected between x1 and x2.

We also liked how optimized the Area Select module is. Regardless of the AI model, Aiarty Image Matting distinguishes between Humans, Animals, and Inanimate Objects in a photograph. You will also find specific things like electronics.

This feature really shines when working with photos containing multiple subjects. The option to pick specific objects from an image is pretty awesome, if you ask us.

The refinement options also come in handy more often than we thought. For instance, Outline Emphasis is great when we need to prioritize sharp edges. Similarly, Smooth Processing worked great while matting portrait photographs as well as product images. The Balance Brightness feature also saved us a lot of time that we would otherwise spend in post-processing.

However, the most powerful tool when it comes to editing functionalities would be Mask Alpha. This option lets you control how shadows, midtones, and highlights appear on the photograph. If you have experience with the curve, you won’t have trouble optimizing an image you matted with Aiarty Image Matting. You will also appreciate the built-in effects, such as Feather, Blur, B&W, and Pixel.

Editing Options

Though the AI engines are great, you still need some touch-ups to refine everything. Fortunately, you get to use one of the many editing options, such as Eraser, Brush, Dodge, and Burn. You’d be familiar with all these tools if you have used something like Photoshop before.

Thanks to the simple UI design, using these tools is pretty easy. You can choose aspects like threshold, value, size, and hardness for each tool and optimize the final image before exporting. The workflow was quick and straightforward for the most part, and you can control how each tool behaves on the canvas.

Overall, while they are not comparable to those of Photoshop or Affinity Photo, the editing tools on Aiarty Image Matting do deliver.

Aiarty Image Matting Pricing

Aiarty Image Matting is available for macOS and Windows, and you need to purchase separate licenses.

You can get the lifetime version of Aiarty Image Matting for $75, and this lets you use the app on 3 Macs. If you’d rather stick to a subscription plan, you can get one for $49 per year. The developer also offers a 4-in-1 lifetime bundle for only $129 — you save 62% and get Aiarty Image Enhancer, VideoProc Converter AI, 5KPlayer, and Aiarty Image Matting.

In addition to the free trial, a 30-day money-back guarantee is available. So, if you don’t like what it offers, you can get back what you paid. The company offers new AI model training updates and GPU acceleration options with all versions, which is great.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Accurately handles fine edges and details for complex subjects like hair and fur.
• Supports batch processing of up to 3,000 images for efficient bulk editing.
• Offers 4K resolution support and AI upscaling for high-quality results.
• Provides multiple specialized AI models for different matting scenarios.
• Includes manual editing tools for precise adjustments and refinements.
• Processes images locally, enhancing data privacy and security.

Cons:

• Requires a powerful computer with a high-end GPU for optimal performance.
• Lacks a cloud-based or browser-accessible version, limiting remote accessibility.

The Bottom Line

After thorough testing, we believe you would appreciate Aiarty Image Matting if you have some experience with professional image manipulation tools like Photoshop. In that case, you know that online tools for image background removal don’t really work.

But Aiarty Image Matting does something better without taking up a lot of system resources. Thanks to those high-efficiency AI models, the background removal/image matting process does not take a toll on your Mac, either.

In the end, considering how much you pay for all these features, Aiarty Image Matting is a great investment for professionals out there. If anything, its bulk processing and editing options add more value when you are dealing with hundreds of photographs every day.

TL;DR: Motion is an all-in-one productivity app that combines smart scheduling, task management, and AI-powered automation. After using it for a week, we found it particularly helpful for reducing decision fatigue, optimizing work hours, and replacing multiple tools like Calendly, Asana, and even Notion.

What Is Motion

Motion calls itself the AI-powered SuperApp for work. This multipurpose platform aims to replace multiple tools you need for your team. Motion aims to replace project, task, calendar, meeting, document, and note management tools with a judicious use of AI.

In doing so, Motion claims to help you get work done at a 10x pace. If these claims are true, having Motion means you don’t need things like Things, Asana/Monday, Calendly, Otter, and Notion/Evernote/Obsidian. In addition, Motion works with platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, Gmail, Outlook, and Apple Calendar.

There are two major USPs to Motion. One, it brings multiple tools together to create a central dashboard for your (personal or team-based) projects. Two, all these modules use the power of AI to boost productivity across your team.

Motion Features

Let’s look at some of the core features that Motion offers:

• AI-Powered Calendar: This Motion AI module lets you make the best out of your time without all the hassle of scheduling. It can efficiently analyze your calendars and find the right spot for your projects and tasks.
• Project Manager: The project management utility from Motion claims to help your team save up to 50% of the time through prediction, analysis, and constant improvement. The AI engine helps your team with analytics and standard proceedings.
• Gantt Charts: Motion brings the power of AI predictions and updates to traditional Gantt charts. This module makes it easy for big teams to manage multiple projects at once while not engaging in micromanaging.
• Task Manager: Motion’s Task Management module also goes beyond the conventional idea. On top of keeping track of all your tasks, Motion will re-prioritize everything to meet your needs. It can also give you a heads-up for tasks that won’t be completed on time.
• Meeting Assistant: Motion also works as a meeting assistant, integrating well with platforms like Google Meet and Zoom. It takes care of scheduling, note-taking, and availability tracking and works with popular platforms.

Motion prioritizes workload and team efficiency instead of focusing on numbers and dashboards.

Our Hands-On Motion Review

Like we do for other products we review, we wanted to test all aspects of Motion. We were a bit concerned, though — our small team and flexible work style might not be the best fit to showcase Motion’s project management and Gantt chart capabilities.

So instead, we focused on how Motion supports individual workflows, daily scheduling, and note/document handling.

Getting Started with Motion

Getting started with Motion is quite straightforward, thanks to a wizard-like interface. As soon as you log into the account, Motion will ask you for a few things. For instance, you can connect all the calendars you want to manage and set up recurring tasks. More importantly, Motion lets you provide details about your work week and timings. The AI engine will use these timings when scheduling your tasks across the week.

Everything is editable and customizable to the dot. For instance, if you want to adjust the working hours for some days of the week, you can do it anytime. We also found that Recurring Tasks add great value. Motion will notify you about these things at the right time—like your lunch or tea break..

In a few seconds, you can complete the setup for Motion, and the dashboard will welcome you.

UI Design and User Experience

Those who are familiar with tools like ClickUp and Notion won’t have any trouble navigating across Motion. The left sidebar is the central navigation element, which lets you access different modules such as Tasks, Agenda, Calendar, All Projects, Team Schedule, and Meeting Notes. This sidebar interface also lets you access your workspaces and some real-time notifications.

Each module has a well-optimized UI of its own. For instance, the Calendar module lets you choose between multiple viewing options.

Similarly, you get to decide how different tasks, projects, and their priorities would be shown on screen. So, Motion retains a design that makes things easier for those who are migrating from platforms like Notion, Monday, or Asana. At the same time, the UI leaves enough room for customization. It is pretty convenient that you can choose between multiple viewing options regardless of the module.

Overall, we really loved the user experience that Motion offers.

Now that we have covered the basics of Motion, we shall see how the AI-powered platform helped us in day-to-day tasks and battles.

Daily Battle Against Decision Fatigue

Prioritizing tasks and making the right decision was something we struggled with, especially when there were too many projects. Earlier, we had to maintain priority lists on different apps in addition to sticky notes on our table.

With Motion, however, we can skip most of these routines. All we have to do is add a task on Motion AI and set the deadline. Because the AI engine knows our working hours and can access our calendar entries, it will assign that task to a suitable slot. Because we receive on-time notifications about starting the tasks, things are easy and hassle-free.

We get more time to focus on the task instead of worrying about whether things will clash with another lecture or a meeting. Because the engine has access to our recurring tasks like food and workout sessions, we can stay away from those worries as well.

Another standout is Motion’s ability to connect multiple calendars to the Motion Calendar. This way, we get to make sure that all parts of our lives are considered before tasks are scheduled.

Overall, we love how Motion helps us deal with the various difficulties we face when it comes to scheduling tasks and following up.

Calendar as Command Center

The AI-powered calendar module on Motion works as a comprehensive command center for all your tasks and projects. First, the calendar on Motion is quite customizable, and you can choose between different viewing modes and priorities. The Day view offers a clear preview of what is lined up for the day as well as how Motion has scheduled the tasks for us.

You can easily add events or tasks to your schedule as usual. With the ‘Reschedule Tasks’ button, Motion will automatically reorganize them for you. If the engine can find a suitable time on the same day, it will be rescheduled accordingly. Otherwise, Motion will push the event or task to the next available period.

It is impressive that we can get to know almost everything about these schedules from a single screen. We must also appreciate how intuitive the User Interface is. It feels so convenient to drag-and-drop or pull-to-expand tasks.

Priority-Driven Deep Work Optimization

Something we deeply appreciate about Motion is that it is not intrusive. At the same time, you can use the platform to prioritize and optimize your work schedule for improved productivity. It’s impressive that we get to choose what tasks are a priority to us.

Thanks to this approach, if we need to ensure that we spend quality time with our family, a week with intensive workloads would not prevent us. As a result, we get to stay calmer about how our work week ahead looks like. The Project Manager feature also deserves a mention.

We tried the feature to create project templates for something up ahead. Motion makes it easy to not only split the project into chunks but also assign sufficient work blocks/chunks to each section. In the end, we don’t have to worry about whether we are on track with the project.

Once again, for someone who overthinks a lot, having a proper plan that is flexible is no less than a blessing. Because we know that the Motion calendar will find time within our time, we are less worried about unexpected meetings or deadline changes.

Performance and Efficiency

Thanks to its different modules working together, Motion has contributed to improved performance and efficiency in work life.

First, because it takes care of scheduling, we can spend more time on the actual tasks. It also considers our workday schedules and other commitments. It essentially makes sure that none of our time is wasted. It is a big achievement for someone dealing with deadlines from multiple realms of their life. Using Motion also helped us realize how much time we normally spend on scheduling our week.

We also noticed that a well-packed calendar has made us more efficient, especially because we know we are getting time for important events, nevertheless. This tool has also helped us recognize underlying patterns in our productivity. We have started relying on these insights while choosing deadlines for tasks and general planning. In short, although Motion is designed for teams, it has made our individual work lives better.

Apps and Integrations

Motion is designed to work with multiple services and apps. It also offers dedicated clients for mobile and desktop devices. For the review, we have used the macOS app for Motion, which works great. You can get the official apps for Android and Windows as well. However, we haven’t heard great things about the Android app.

When it comes to integrations, Motion does not disappoint. First, you get native integration with services like Google Calendar, iCloud Calendar, Zoom, Google Meet, and Gmail. You can also set up your Microsoft Outlook account with it. These are the basic options, and you get decent functionalities for accessing all the features that Motion offers.

When it comes to third-party integrations, the list includes platforms like Zapier, Make.com, and Pipedream. All these are designed in such a way that you can get the most out of task automation, custom workflows, and collaboration at the team level.

In short, it works great with existing apps/services that you may already be using.

Pricing and Plans

You can choose between two plans from Motion: Individual and Business Standard.

The Individual plan gives you access to features like scheduling, task management, calendar, etc. It will cost you $19 per month when paid annually. This plan is great for individuals.

The Business Standard plan would cost $12 per user per month and is available for smaller businesses with less than 15 members. You get advanced features like Timeline, Gantt views, project delivery predictions, AI for SOP, etc.

At first look, Motion is indeed expensive. If you are paying monthly, you will have to pay around $34 per month, which is not a small amount. But what you should keep in mind is the time that Motion can help you save.

For someone handling multiple projects every day and having trouble taking care of all these aspects, this could be a good investment by any means. We should also remember that it can easily replace your other premium subscriptions, such as Asana and Monday.

Why It’s Sweet

PopTranslate is more than a utility; it’s a rethinking of how translation should work in the macOS ecosystem. With AI-powered features and a design philosophy rooted in simplicity and speed, it transforms the way you interact with multilingual content.

Here’s what makes it special:

• Instant Pop-Up Translation: Just select text anywhere—browser, PDF, email, chat—and a customizable popup shows the translation right there. No switching windows. No interruptions.
• AI Powerhouse: Choose between multiple AI engines including OpenAI, Gemini, and Claude, and compare translations in real time.
• AI Explain, Rewrite & Define: Get instant explanations of complex phrases, grammar fixes for writing, or definitions—all powered by AI.
• OCR Image Translation: Need to translate unselectable text from an image or scanned document? Snap a screenshot and let PopTranslate handle it.
• Replace in One Click: Translate and seamlessly replace your original text with the translated version—perfect for emails, reports, and cross-lingual writing.
• System-wide support: Works everywhere on your Mac—Mail, Safari, Messages, Pages, PDFs, iBooks, Slack, and more.

What the Developer Says

PopTranslate began as a simple Safari extension created by its developer to help his wife translate web content effortlessly. Over time, it evolved into a full-featured macOS app powered by cutting-edge AI technology.

“PopTranslate was designed with two clear goals in mind: being AI First and providing a seamless native macOS experience.”​

For a deeper dive into the story behind PopTranslate, you can read their full blog post here.

How PopTranslate Works

After a quick setup (including connecting to your own OpenAI, DeepL, or Gemini API keys), PopTranslate runs quietly in your menu bar. When you highlight any text, a keyboard shortcut (default: ⌃⌥T) triggers the magic: a lightweight popup shows the translation, along with options to rewrite, define, or explain what you’re reading.

You can even customize the UI and behavior—choose your default target language, tweak the shortcut, and tailor the popup menu’s appearance. It’s translation, done the Mac way.

A user case for email translation

macOS users who deal with multilingual email know the pain:

• No built-in translation in Apple Mail
• Time-consuming copy/paste workflows
• Terminology mistranslations that lose context

PopTranslate changes the game by letting you read and respond to international emails in your native language—without leaving the Mail app. With a quick shortcut, you can translate, rewrite, or replace text right inside your draft.

What People Are Saying

PopTranslate has quietly built a loyal following among power users and international communicators:

“The fastest way I’ve found to translate emails without jumping between apps.”
— Product Hunt comment

“This really should be built into macOS.”
— Reddit /r/macapps user

Users especially praise its smooth UI, multi-engine support, and the Replace feature that speeds up multilingual email replies and content editing.

What’s Next

The PopTranslate roadmap is packed with thoughtful improvements:

• iOS Companion App: Bringing the same native translation flow to your iPhone and iPad.
• Offline Translation Support: Using on-device LLMs to work without an internet connection.
• Deeper Ecosystem Integration: Extensions for Safari, Notes, Mail, and other native apps.
• Customization and Automation: Trigger translations with custom shortcuts, presets, or even AppleScript integrations in future builds.

The vision is clear: PopTranslate is becoming more than a utility—it’s evolving into a lightweight AI language assistant that adapts to your workflow.

What’s the Price

The core app is free to use, simply go official website, download and sign up to unlock 10 free translations daily.

To unlock advanced features, PopTranslate offers a Pro Subscription with two flexible plans:​

Pro (Monthly): $1.99 USD per month​

• Access to advanced AI models: OpenAI, Gemini​
• OCR Translation with AI​
• Translation in Pop Window​
• Comparison between AI translations​
• AI-Powered Text-to-Speech​
• Advanced AI features: Explain, Rewrite​

Pro (Yearly): $14.99 USD per year (Save 38% off the monthly plan)​

• Includes all features of the Pro Monthly plan.

The Bottom Line

PopTranslate is a Mac-native translation tool that actually respects your time and workflow. Whether you’re reading foreign-language content, translating documents, or writing multilingual emails, it brings the power of AI into your daily life—quietly and smartly.

It’s requires macOS 14 or newer, dive deep from https://poptranslate.app/

With MacWhisper, you can simply speak your thoughts, structure them as you go, and edit later. Whether it’s a 2,000-word term paper or meeting notes, this app saves you hours of effort—and it doesn’t stop there.

Getting to Know MacWhisper

MacWhisper is a powerful yet user-friendly macOS application designed to streamline audio transcription. Developed by Jordi Bruin, it harnesses the capabilities of OpenAI’s state-of-the-art transcription technology to effortlessly convert audio files into text.

MacWhisper isn’t just a simple speech-to-text converter. It offers a wide range of features to cater to various needs.

Key Features

• Record and transcribe audio directly within the app.
• Batch transcribe multiple audio files simultaneously.
• All transcription is done on your device, no data leaves your machine.
• Automatically group transcribed text by speaker.
• Get accurate text transcriptions in seconds (up to ~30x realtime)
• Extract transcripts from online sources like podcasts and YouTube videos.
• Edit and delete segments from the transcript.
• Support multiple languages (fastest model is English only).
• Utilize AI prompts to further analyze and process your transcriptions.
• Options to export transcripts, subtitles, and more to different formats
• Support 100 different languages.

Free Limitations

MacWhisper is free, but the free version has some restrictions.

• You do not have access to the Menu-bar app or Global mode.
• However, you can record audio and get it tagged right.
• Similarly, you can’t access batch transcription.
• Only a few models are available.
• Some customization features are unavailable.

But you can go for MacWhisper Pro if you need these features.

Getting Started with MacWhisper

Setting up MacWhisper and using it for the first time is easy.

You can download the application for free from the official website. Once the app loads up, you will be asked to download a transcription model.

Some of these models might not be available depending on whether you have a paid version. You can choose one of the suitable models based on quality, speed and size.

Once MacWhisper has downloaded the model, you are good to go.

Here’s how it works:

You can input an audio recording from multiple sources.

1. You can speak what you want to write.
2. Upload an audio recording that you already have.
3. You can also upload a podcast episode if you wish.

Getting to Use MacWhisper

As we said, there are different ways to transcribe your speech into text with impressive accuracy.

• New Recording. You can use this option to record audio using the MacWhisper window and turn it into text. This option is great for transcribing lengthy pieces.
• Record App Audio. This option lets you record audio from macOS apps and transcribe it. You may find it handy while transcribing online meetings.
• Global. Thanks to this feature, you can launch MacWhisper regardless of the app you are using. It lets you quickly transcribe audio and copy the text into the clipboard.
• Transcribe Podcast. MacWhisper is smart enough to understand different audio speakers. You can use this feature to transcribe entire podcast episodes.
• Dictation. The latest addition to MacWhisper, the Dictation mode lets you use accurate audio-to-text transcription on any text field. You can easily set up a hotkey.

There are also additional options, such as batch transcription and cloud transcription.

Cloud transcription is best for those who do not have a powerful Mac. In that case, you can use the Whisper API to get the job done, but the API will cost you money, and you have to set it up.

MacWhisper Review (TheSweetBits Take)

Here are a few aspects of MacWhisper we have been testing for months.

Note: For the record, we have tested all these features on a MacBook Air M2 running macOS Sequoia. Though we have tried transcription in other languages, we will use English as the source for this review.

Setup and Interface

With a faster internet connection, MacWhisper does not take more than a few minutes to set up. Once you have set up the hotkeys, it is seamless to transcribe audio from multiple sources.

The intuitive UI makes it easy to record audio or convert existing files. You can simply drag and drop the file you want to transcribe and wait for a few seconds. Depending on the mode, MacWhisper lines up available customization options as well.

We have always loved the Global mode the most because of its accessibility. In this mode, you can launch the MacWhisper interface anywhere on your Mac. You can configure the mode to paste the text or copy it to the clipboard automatically.

However, Dictation has taken this spot after MacWhisper launched the latest update. Dictation makes things easier because everything runs in the background. You can speak while holding the hotkey, and you will have the transcribed content in a few seconds. You can tweak this output further using an AI service.

Both options are great when writing on something like Microsoft Word or Notion.

Overall, Mac Whisperer is an install-and-forget thing for the most part.

Accuracy and Performance

Everyone does not need the same level of accuracy or speed when it comes to transcription. You can select a suitable transcription model, which is a great choice here. And we will suggest a few things.

MacWhisper keeps adding new models to the library and makes it easy to choose the right one.

When transcribing English, you can choose the Base (English) model or the Small (English) model. Both of these are available in the free version. These two models are accurate enough for most tasks. However, the transcription struggles with proper nouns or brand names.

If your documents contain proper nouns, you may need something more powerful. Thus, if you want a good balance between quality, speed, and accuracy, you should get Medium (English) or Large V3 (English). This model will take up 1.5 GB of space on your Mac and takes a little toll on RAM when running at full speed.

There are also some languages where AI training data is not widely available, thus affecting the transcription option.

We have used the MacWhisper transcription tool to write blog posts and research content. The research content made use of some complex vocabulary, and the accuracy of MacWhisper was great.

You can expect better performance if you have an M4-powered Mac with more than 8GB of RAM. We noticed that MacWhisper keeps adding more efficient models to the library. It also means you can try more accurate (and larger) models.

Speaker & Recognition

MacWhisper’s latest update (version 12) introduces a game-changing feature that significantly enhances its transcription capabilities. The new automatic speaker recognition functionality is a standout addition that deserves special mention.

This cutting-edge feature automatically detects different speakers in an audio file, groups their speech, and labels them accordingly. It’s a powerful tool that transforms the transcription process for multi-speaker content such as interviews, meetings, or podcast episodes. The ability to distinguish between speakers not only improves the readability of transcripts but also saves considerable time in post-processing.

What’s particularly impressive is that this advanced functionality operates entirely on-device, maintaining MacWhisper’s commitment to privacy and offline functionality. This local processing ensures that your sensitive audio data never leaves your Mac, making it an ideal choice for handling confidential material.

Please note this feature is part of the Pro version.

Customization: Basics and Beyond

MacWhisper offers quite a bit of room for flexibility. You get to choose what works for you during and after the transcription.

For instance, you can use the Find & Replace feature to deal with frequent/potential errors. Similarly, you can ask MacWhisper to ignore specific segments. Lastly, you also have an option to add speakers to your transcripts.

It’s also great that you can adjust the UI. MacWhisper lets you choose between the transcript and segments mode. And you can always change the font size and add timestamps to the transcript.

MacWhisper has also introduced a powerful video player that enhances the transcription experience. It seamlessly displays translated text as separate subtitles, allowing you to follow along with the video without constantly switching between the transcript and the video, making the editing process much smoother.

If you only need the transcribed content and not the video itself, MacWhisper offers the option to download just the audio portion of a YouTube video. This feature not only saves storage space but also lets you focus on the transcription without the distraction of video content.

The latest version also makes the post-transcription edits easier than ever. For instance, you can quickly set up options for AI or Translation. Because MacWhisper offers support for both Apple and third-party services, overall performance is also up these days.

Pros and Cons

The good part is that you can save 15% at checkout with promo code FINALLY for a limited time to unleash the Pro version’s full capabilities including on-device automatic speaker recognition.

System Requirements

MacWhisper requires a lot of computer memory to work well. To use the Medium and Large models, your Mac should have more than 8GB of RAM. However, it’s nice to find that more resource-efficient models are finding their space in the library.

Final Words

As you might have understood, we became a fan of MacWhisper in no time.

MacWhisper is a worthy investment for people who must type a lot daily. These days, we spend half of the time than we used to for writing an article. Why? Speaking the words and editing them is much faster than thinking and typing.

Because you run the transcription models on-device, there are no privacy concerns. So, MacWhisper is a better choice for confidential material than the other transcription tools we have used.
