PopGuy
AI actions for any text you select — your key or local
Select text in any Mac app, and a floating toolbar pops up to improve, translate, define, or run your own AI actions on it. Bring your own AI service key, or run 100% locally with Ollama or built-in models. Keys stay in your Keychain. Plenty is included for free, with more features available through a one-time $15 Pro upgrade — no subscription.
Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Thi, the maker of PopGuy.
I live in text all day — writing, translating, cleaning up messy drafts — and I got
tired of copy-pasting into a chatbot tab every single time. I wanted the AI to come
to the text, not the other way around.
So PopGuy works like PopClip: you select text in ANY Mac app and a little floating
toolbar pops up. From there you can Improve it (with an inline diff so you see the
change before accepting — your original is never touched), Translate it, look up a
definition, run OCR on anything on screen, or fire your own custom AI actions.
The part I care about most: it's your AI. Plug in your own OpenAI or Anthropic
key, or run it 100% locally with Ollama / LM Studio or integrated models — nothing leaves your machine. Keys are stored in the macOS Keychain, never in plaintext.
Free is enough for your needs but Pro gives some more features. And it's a one-time $15, not another monthly subscription.
🎁 For the Product Hunt community: use code PRODUCTHUNT for 40% off Pro ($9 instead
of $15) this month. There's also a free 1-month trial if you just want to try it first.
I built this solo and I'd genuinely love your feedback — what's missing, what feels
off, what would make it a daily driver for you. I'll be here all day answering
everything. Thank you for checking it out 🙏
