Is HeyHandy right for you?
A good fit for
Mac users drafting or understanding selected content without moving to a separate chat page.
Before you choose
Requires macOS 26+ on Apple silicon or Intel. Review inserted text and requested screenshots for sensitive material. Task-triggered capture does not establish offline inference. Credits meter usage; independent accuracy and network handling were not tested.
Request only the context you need
Select the intended passage, invoke the shortcut and ask for a specific edit or explanation. Inspect the text in its destination before sending it. When requesting screen help, close unrelated sensitive material and confirm the highlighted control is correct.
Credits and capture boundary
The rendered official page lists $20/month and fifty thousand monthly credits with a seven-day trial. It says the screen is not streamed merely because the app is open and clipboard content is restored after use. Those controls were documented rather than independently tested; confirm processing details in the privacy policy before confidential use.
