Why I Built This

2026-01-261 min readBy Mike

Since the AI revolution began, my workflow changed completely - but not entirely for the better.

I found myself constantly writing content in various apps (Slack, Gmail, Notes, VS Code) and then interrupting my flow to:

  • Copy the text.
  • Switch to a browser tab with ChatGPT or Claude.
  • Paste the text and write a prompt ("Make this more professional," "Fix the grammar," "Translate to English").
  • Wait for the result.
  • Copy the result.
  • Switch back to my original app.
  • Paste it back.

It was exhausting. The constant context switching was killing my focus. I wanted the AI to come to me, right where I was working, without the friction.

That's why I built Echoo.

Echoo brings AI text transformation directly to your fingertips. Select text anywhere on your Mac, hit a shortcut, and watch it transform instantly. No tab switching. No copy-pasting. Just flow.
