Qelvora is a native macOS menu bar app that corrects, rewrites, and translates selected text using locally-run models. It processes text privately without sending data away, making it ideal for writers, developers, and Discord users who need quick edits. The app offers two workflows: select text directly in any app, or draw a rectangle around visible text for OCR processing. It integrates with Ollama for local language model inference and works across Discord, Slack, Teams, Notion, and other macOS applications.
The maker built Qelvora by directing Codex. It runs natively on macOS 14+, includes notarized builds with Sparkle updates, and is distributed under the MIT license.
