When text is visible,
Textly makes it usable.
Capture text from images, videos, PDFs and app interfaces, then paste it wherever you need it. No retyping. No detours.
ONE MOTION. USEFUL TEXT.
See it. Select it. Paste it.
Translate in the same flow
Capture another language and move straight into translation without retyping it.
Keep recent text close
Search recent captures and copied text instead of hunting through your workflow again.
MADE FOR REAL MAC WORK

- Images and screenshots
- Playing videos
- Scanned documents and PDFs
- App interfaces and presentations
