Source and result stay aligned
Model output is checked against deterministic tokens, so words cannot be silently dropped, merged, or rewritten.
Start where you are reading
Select English in the current app and use one shortcut instead of repeatedly switching tabs, copying, and pasting.
Founder Beta waitlist
The signed build is not ready. Validate the source build first.
After signing and notarization are complete, we will review registrations in order and invite up to 15 eligible macOS users who read technical English at least three days a week. The first week is free. On day seven, if Wordwise is useful enough to keep, decide whether to make a one-time CNY 39 Founder payment.
- For developers, researchers, and technical writers

- The source remains MIT licensed; payment covers the signed beta, beta updates, and direct support
