Overview
Boost your throughput with AI understanding your task by fetching context from your active app.Alter works everywhere and has special features for Finder, Apple Mail, and Keynote.
Summon Alter's contextual menu with a global shortcut like `alt+option`, and every action displayed is shortcut-enabled with a mnemonic system.
It provides 60+ AI actions suggested when you need them:
- Browsing YouTube? Get a nice summary from the transcript.
- Selected some emails on Apple Mail? Extract to-dos from the conversations.
- Opened Keynote? Generate a draft presentation with images fetched from the web.
- Selected some text? Translate, fix typos and grammar, or change the tone.
- Selected some text in LinkedIn? Extend it to a full post.
- Selected a research paper in Finder? Analyze it.
- Selected some files and folders? Ask anything or get a summary.
- Selected a git-commit in your code editor? Generate a commit message.
Besides, Alter has co-intelligences, from marketing and business to mental models and software engineering. Chat with them to brainstorm, solve issues, and get an expert view on a given topic.
Customization is a priority; you can create your own actions to perfectly fit your workflow. You can also choose your own shortcuts for every action and folder.
Alter provides AI models without the need for an API key. Get access to multiple models and providers: OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, and Together.
Have your own API key or want to use local models? We support OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
Want full privacy? Use Ollama and LM Studio for an offline experience.

Easier to use than ChatGPT, Daniel has made a great app here 👏 He's also very receptive to feedback, and has taken some of my ideas and bug reports on board 👍 Keep up the good work! Recommended ⭐

13,815164Released 1y agoFrom $29Absolutely love MindMac, I have been giving large amounts of feedback and support to help improve the app for some time now, and the only reason why I am doing that out of my own time, without any incentive is to help the community, but I also want to help this app succeed. Having small developers, like MindMac's is incredible, to create something as powerful and helpful, for users that do not need a computer science degree just to operate it I find very exciting. The developer listens and actions requests that are helpful, and reasonable, and that is something you won't get with the larger developers for months. Keep it up MindMac!
