I kept breaking my workflow to translate foreign text — copy, open browser, paste into translator, read, switch back. Repeat.

  So I built a macOS menu bar app that translates right where you're working.
                                                                                                   
  Two modes:                                                                                     
  - Select text in any app → Cmd+Option+Z → instant translation                                    
  - Cmd+Shift+T → drag over any area → OCR + translate (images, PDFs, subtitles)
                                                                                                   
  Everything runs on-device via Apple Vision + Apple Translation. No servers, no tracking. Free    
  forever.
