- Worth noticing
- The page specifies six actions per ring, eight rings per set, and up to 12 sets, with sets assignable to apps or websites.
Field notes
The wheel can be opened with a keyboard shortcut or selected mouse buttons, and the page describes assigning different action sets to particular apps or websites. Text actions include proofreading, rewriting, translation, explanation, and summarization; the site says these use macOS’s built-in language model by default or can connect to a local OpenAI-compatible server. The stated requirements are macOS 26.1 or later and Apple silicon.
