Text Workflow 3.5.0

Copy an answer from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any website, and it comes with junk: [1] citation tags, [source] marks, stray ** and ## symbols, curly quotes, invisible characters, and broken line breaks. Text Workflow removes all of it on your Mac and gives you clean text, ready to paste. Exact every time, and private.

Turn repeated text jobs into one click
Chain 50+ actions into a workflow where each step feeds the next, save it, and run it from the menu bar, a keyboard shortcut, or Shortcuts without opening the main window. Built-in actions run on your Mac, so the same input always gives the same output: no hallucinations, no "regenerate", and no need to paste sensitive text into a website just to reformat it. Buy once, no subscription.

AI, on your terms
AI is one optional step among 50+, not the whole app. Add a prompt step to any workflow with your own OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini key, any OpenAI-compatible service such as OpenRouter or LM Studio, or Apple's on-device model. You choose the model and pay the provider directly. Nothing routes through us.
