System-wide macOS writing helper that rewrites, fixes grammar, and adjusts tone inside whatever app you're typing in.
TextWisely is a native macOS menu-bar app that adds writing shortcuts to any text field on the system, so you don't need a browser tab to fix a sentence. It handles grammar correction, rewriting, tone changes, email replies, and summarizing, and supports 39 languages with tone presets you can customize. It's sold as a $5-a-month subscription, a $48-a-year plan, or a $29 one-time license with a 14-day refund window, and there's no free trial beyond that guarantee. The maker describes the app as built in Europe but doesn't name a company on the site. It needs macOS 15 Sequoia or newer, so it won't run on older Macs.
Cheapest recurring option; also sold as $48/year or a $29 one-time license with a 14-day refund, no forever-free tier.
Use tool ↗TextWisely's main selling point is that it lives in the menu bar and reaches into whatever field you're typing in—Mail, Slack, Notes—instead of asking you to paste text into a separate site. For people who write across many native Mac apps that saves real friction. It's Mac-only and needs a fairly recent macOS version, and unlike most competitors it doesn't offer a running free tier, only a refund window.
Watch out: Confirm your macOS version before buying the one-time license—it won't install on anything before Sequoia.
