Flick - AI text transformation without leaving your keyboard.

by
Flick is a cross-platform desktop utility that transforms text anywhere on your system - no copy-pasting, no switching tabs. Just type your text, append a trigger like !formal, !fix, or !translate:spanish, and Flick instantly replaces it using Gemini Flash AI. Works system-wide in any app: Notion, VS Code, Gmail, Slack, anywhere. Built with Rust + Tauri v2. Free, open source, no data leaves your machine except the API call to Gemini (BYOK).

Hey PH! I built Flick after getting frustrated copy-pasting text into ChatGPT just to fix grammar or change tone. Felt like too many steps for something I do 50 times a day. Flick sits in your system tray and watches for trigger commands as you type. Hit !formal and your text transforms in place, right where you typed it. No new window, no clipboard juggling. Built it in Rust + Tauri v2 over a few weeks. Would love feedback on what commands you'd want added. What do you spend the most time rewriting?
