Frequently asked questions

What does Jarq actually do?
Select text in any app and act on it right where it is — translate, shorten, fix, or rewrite it. Or hold a hotkey and dictate finished text straight into the field you're already in. No copy-paste, no switching tabs.
Which apps does it work in?
Any app. A browser, a PDF, Figma, a terminal, a native window — select text and the buttons appear beside it. Where an app blocks the selection, ⌥ T reaches the text anyway.
How is it different from Grammarly or ChatGPT?
Those live in a browser tab or their own window, so you copy text out, fix it, and paste it back. Jarq makes the same edits in place, in whatever app you're already working in.
How is it different from Apple's dictation?
Jarq drops finished text — punctuation, capitals, the language you chose — into any app, and can translate as you speak. It keeps working in the apps macOS dictation trips over.
Which languages does it support?
Thirteen — English, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, French and German among them. Speak one and type another, or translate a selection between any two.
Is my voice or text stored anywhere?
No. A recording or a selection becomes text in memory and comes right back — stored nowhere, used to train nothing. History stays on your Mac, and offline recognition keeps your voice local. The long version is in the privacy policy.
What does it cost, and what do I need?
Every install starts with 14 days of Pro, free — no card, no account. After that Jarq keeps working on the free plan: 5 dictations or translations a day, no expiry. A licence lifts the limit — $4.99 a month, $39 a year, or $179 once. Dictation through the optional on-device model stays free and unlimited on every plan — it never reaches our servers, so there is nothing to charge for. You need a Mac on Apple Silicon (M1 or later) running macOS 13 Ventura or newer.
