Writing Tools is a free, open-source, system-wide AI writing assistant for Windows, Linux and macOS, inspired by Apple Intelligence's Writing Tools, that proofreads and optimizes text anywhere with one hotkey and can summarize webpages, videos or documents, using the free Gemini API or a local LLM. It's aimed at Windows and Linux users who want Apple Intelligence-style writing assistance, which Apple limits to its own hardware.
