serhii_f··on Tired of copy/pasting into ChatGPT, so I built a custom tool
For now, I've been using Google's Gemini 2.0 Flash, as they offer a pretty generous free tier, but if the tool goes out, I will eventually be charged for using it. However, I plan to have a free tier, which should cover most users' needs, and a paid tier for more active users.
serhii_f··on Tired of copy/pasting into ChatGPT, so I built a custom tool
I’m a software developer from Ukraine, and English isn’t my first language. Like many people, I use ChatGPT to fix my writing. My usual workflow was copy/pasting text into ChatGPT with “fix this”, then copy/pasting it back. It works, but is slow.

So about a month ago, I built a small tool to solve this. Now I just select text, press a hotkey combination, and it instantly replaces the text with the corrected version.

Curious if anyone else would find this useful, so I set up a waiting list page at clippy.it.com
