CueDraftUnderstand the full CueDraft workflow before you choose a plan.
This page maps the full CueDraft workflow in one pass: the fast cleanup layer, the review layer, the repeatable preset layer, and the privacy-first choice between local and hosted AI.
Handle the low-ceremony cleanup case without turning every edit into a full session.
Move into compare, locks, history, and direct editing when the writing stops being low stakes.
Keep recurring instructions close at hand instead of rebuilding prompts from memory.
CueDraft is one product with four clear layers. Pro includes the full workflow plus the local on-device path on Mac.
Quick Fix and Action Chooser keep everyday cleanup fast when the draft is already close.
The panel keeps editing, compare, locks, history, and review visible when wording matters.
Saved presets, favorites, and folders turn recurring writing work into reusable actions.
CueDraft Engine keeps writing local on your Mac, and hosted providers stay optional inside the same workflow.
Start with the chapter that matches your main question, then use the capability inventory below as the structured scan.
Use one conservative pass when the draft is already close
Quick Fix is for the common case: the sentence mostly works, and you want a faster, cleaner version without opening a bigger editing surface first.
- Best for grammar, punctuation, spelling, and light clarity cleanup
- Useful in browser fields, notes, docs, chat, and other everyday writing surfaces
- Keeps the selected-text workflow moving when you do not need a larger editorial choice
Quick Fix is the speed layer: small changes, low ceremony, and a quick way to improve the text you already selected.
Choose a stronger selected-text action without opening the full panel
Action Chooser expands the same selected-text flow instead of replacing it. Capture once, then choose Fix, Improve, Concise, Rewrite, or a saved preset when the draft needs more than a conservative cleanup pass.
- Best when you know the sentence needs more than conservative cleanup
- Lets you pick Improve, Concise, Rewrite, or a reusable preset before running the edit
- Keeps the workflow keyboard-first when the full panel would be overkill
Action Chooser keeps the faster no-panel path while still surfacing reusable presets for repeated work.
Open the panel when the writing deserves review, comparison, and control
When the draft needs more judgment, CueDraft opens a full editorial workspace instead of pretending one answer is enough. Edit directly, compare revisions, and decide when the text is ready.
- Visible actions for Fix, Improve, Concise, Rewrite, and custom instructions
- Direct editing inside the panel before or after AI output
- A deliberate review flow instead of immediate one-shot output
The panel is where CueDraft becomes a serious editing tool rather than a one-shot rewrite surface.
Protect exact wording while you explore better drafts
CueDraft is built for writers who want leverage without giving up control. Locks, history, compare, and snapshots let you improve the draft while protecting the parts that should not move.
- Lock exact words and phrases before rewriting
- Compare current output against previous versions
- Keep snapshots while you test multiple directions
- Review changes before anything returns to the original app
The product keeps control visible instead of hiding it behind the latest generated answer.
Turn repeated writing work into reusable actions
Presets are for the jobs you do every week: customer replies, summaries, status updates, release notes, and internal rewrites with a known style. Save the instruction once, then run it like a normal writing action.
- Save repeated instructions instead of rebuilding prompts from scratch
- Use favorites and folders to keep a growing preset library easy to scan
- Keep recurring work close to the keyboard instead of hidden in notes or snippets
The repeatability advantage is simple: when a writing job recurs, CueDraft lets it graduate into a reusable action.
Keep writing local by default, with hosted AI only when you choose it
CueDraft is privacy-first by default. Use CueDraft Engine on your Mac when you want writing to stay local, or switch to a hosted provider when that is the better fit for a specific job. The editing workflow stays the same either way.
- CueDraft Engine gives Pro users a curated on-device path on macOS
- Hosted providers currently include OpenAI and Anthropic
- Your writing only leaves the device when you explicitly choose a hosted provider
- The editing workflow stays the same whether the work runs on-device or through a provider
CueDraft keeps one editing workflow while letting you decide whether a draft stays local or runs through a hosted provider.
Use one writing workflow across the Mac apps where work happens
CueDraft is designed around selected text in real Mac apps: browser fields, documents, chat tools, email, notes, and code-adjacent writing surfaces.
- Selected-text capture from the frontmost app
- Fast no-panel actions for quick edits
- A full panel when review, locks, history, or custom instructions matter
- Clear guidance when a surface is better handled by opening the panel first
The core product is simple: keep the writing in context, choose the right amount of help, and review the result when the draft needs judgment.
Every major capability in one clearer scan.

The pricing page is intentionally short: one Pro plan, a free trial, no credit card required to start, and a clear explanation of what stays local.
