The public installer and license flow are being prepared. Downloads and checkout will open when they are ready.
A few good questions.
Does it work offline?
Apple Translation and Hy-MT2 run locally once the required language resources or model are installed. First-time setup and updates may require a connection.
Do I need an account?
No registration or login is planned. The beta includes a 15-day trial; a purchase unlocks continued use. The trial and activation flow are being finalized before public release.
What Mac do I need?
The current app targets macOS 26 or later. Testing has been performed on Apple Silicon; broader hardware compatibility is still being checked.
Will it work in every app?
Selection capture depends on the app. Slack’s menu-bar translation workflow has been confirmed. Some custom editors may need a different capture path.
How much memory does it use?
On our M1 Max test Mac, the 440 MiB Hy-MT2 process was around 0.7–1.0 GiB RSS; Q4 was about 2.48 GiB after a small test. These are observations, not guaranteed limits, and exclude the app interface.
Can I add my own model?
You can import GGUF files into the model library. Importing does not guarantee compatibility: new models still need runtime and prompt support.
Is the beta ready to download?
Not yet. Standalone packaging, release signing, and the 15-day trial flow are still being completed. This page previews the offer.
