Overview

ailight is a desktop AI command bar that lets you highlight and transform anything on your screen without breaking your flow or leaving your current app. Triggered by a hotkey, it pops over your screen and lets you send prompts to transform text, analyze screenshots, extract data, and more. Create custom AI-powered actions for tasks you do often like rewriting emails, translating, reviewing code, or fixing grammar. Pre-built slash commands like /formal, /fix, /list, /insights, /csv, /explain, /to-json, /simple, ?summary, and ?translate provide instant transformations. Works across any application including email clients, spreadsheets, presentations, and code editors. Bring your own API key from supported AI providers to get started.
