What is PaletteBrain?
Copying a paragraph into a separate chat window can interrupt a small writing task. PaletteBrain brings AI commands closer to the text a Mac user is already working with. Select content, invoke a shortcut and apply a task such as rewriting or explaining it. The workflow is useful when the source text matters more than maintaining a long conversation.
Create commands for work you repeat
The app describes custom prompts and model settings, with provider connections such as OpenAI and Azure. Reusable commands can keep a recurring instruction consistent, whether it is shortening an update or adjusting the tone of a response. Start with commands that have an obvious success condition so you can quickly judge whether the output is useful.
Keep the original meaning visible
Compare the result with the selected passage before inserting it. A shorter version should preserve important dates, qualifications and commitments rather than merely sounding smoother. Test the shortcut in the apps you use most often and check how replacement or copying behaves. Keep sensitive text out of provider requests until you understand the relevant data handling.

Who is PaletteBrain for?
Mac users who repeatedly edit short passages across different applications and want a consistent set of AI instructions without rebuilding the prompt each time.
Before you get started
Confirm current macOS requirements and supported providers. App licensing and provider API usage may be separate; review permissions, costs and rewritten text before use.
