# Rephrase

> AI-powered prompt improvement app for macOS

## Quick Answer

Rephrase is a macOS menu bar app that transforms rough ideas into powerful prompts for ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, and Sora. Press Cmd+Shift+I on any selected text or use voice input (Cmd+Shift+U) to get an improved prompt instantly. Free tier includes 10 prompts; Pro ($9.99/month) offers unlimited access with voice input and custom skills.

## Product Overview

**What it is:** A native macOS productivity app that lives in your menu bar and improves prompts for any AI tool using research-backed techniques.

**Who it's for:** Anyone who uses AI tools daily - developers, writers, designers, marketers, and creators who want better results from ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, Sora, and other AI platforms.

**Key differentiator:** Works system-wide via global hotkey, supports voice input with Whisper transcription, and auto-detects the best skill for each prompt type.

## Core Features

### Global Hotkey (Cmd+Shift+I)
Select any text in any application (browser, IDE, notes, Slack, etc.) and press Cmd+Shift+I. The app captures your selection, improves it using Claude AI, and copies the result to your clipboard or pastes directly. Works across all macOS apps.

### Voice Input (Cmd+Shift+U)
Press Cmd+Shift+U to start voice recording. Whisper transcribes your speech in real-time, then AI transforms it into a polished prompt. No typing required - just speak your idea naturally.

### Smart Skills Auto-Detection
The app automatically detects your intent and applies the right skill:
- Video prompts for Sora, Runway, Kling
- Image prompts for Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion
- Professional messages for Slack, email
- Social media posts for Twitter, LinkedIn
- General text improvement for ChatGPT, Claude
- Code prompts for development tasks
- Research prompts for academic and investigation tasks
- TTS prompts for text-to-speech
- Music prompts for Suno (vocals + instrumentals)

### Global Instructions
Set personal preferences that apply to every prompt - your brand voice, language style, or specific requirements. Ensures consistent output across all prompts.

### Custom Skills (Pro)
Build your own skills with custom transformation rules. Define specific instructions for specialized workflows or team standards.
