What is Write Lint?

Write Lint is an on-device grammar and writing refinement tool specifically designed for macOS users. Built to leverage Apple's on-device Foundation Models, it provides a privacy-first alternative to cloud-based writing assistants. The tool allows users to summon a floating polish window from any application using a simple keyboard shortcut, ensuring a seamless workflow. While it runs locally by default, it also offers the flexibility to integrate external LLMs like Claude or OpenAI via personal API keys. It is ideal for professionals who handle sensitive data and need quick, reliable proofreading without sending their text to external servers. By focusing on catching the small stuff, Write Lint streamlines the editing process directly within the user's existing environment. The application requires no accounts, no subscriptions, and functions entirely offline for maximum user convenience.
