Press one shortcut. The panel appears at your cursor, already loaded with what you copied. Get your answer. Dismiss. Done.
The panel — exactly where your cursor is
summarise
How it works
Copy
Select any text anywhere — a Slack message, a PDF, an email, a webpage. Copy it as you always do.
Press
Hit ⌘⇧Space from anywhere. The panel appears within 8px of your cursor, already holding what you copied.
Act
Click a one-tap suggestion or type your own prompt. The answer streams back in under two seconds. Press Escape. You're back.
Eight steps collapsed into two. That's the whole product.
Features
Small by design.
Complete by intention.
Cursi does not try to be a full AI workspace. It does one thing and gets out of your way.
- Always at your cursor
- The panel appears within 8px of where your mouse is. It flips direction automatically near screen edges and works across every monitor you have.
- Clipboard-first context
- Your last copied text is already loaded when the panel opens. You never paste manually. Nothing is sent to the AI until you explicitly submit.
- One-click suggestions
- Summarise. Fix grammar. Explain simply. Translate. Write reply. Make professional. Tap one and the answer streams in immediately.
- Streaming responses
- Answers appear word by word as they generate. No spinner. You start reading before it finishes writing.
- Session persistence
- Dismissing Cursi does not end your session. Re-open it and your conversation is still there. A new clipboard copy starts a fresh thread.
- Zero idle footprint
- Cursi lives in your menu bar and uses no battery when idle. No dock icon. No background processing. It costs nothing to have it open.
- Fully keyboard-driven
- Invoke, send, dismiss — all from the keyboard. Enter sends. Shift+Enter adds a line. Escape dismisses. No mouse required.
- Custom shortcut
- The default is ⌘ ⇧ Space but you can change it to anything from Settings. It registers globally — it works inside any app.
