What Fix Grammar does

Its built-in prompt asks for only the corrected text and preserves names, URLs, code, formatting, and line breaks where possible.

Compare ActionClip AI sources and providers.

  1. Select the text you want to use in any supported Mac app.
  2. Choose Fix Grammar from the ActionClip widget or its More menu.
  3. Review the result, or continue in the destination app when the action opens one.

When ActionClip suggests it

Fix Grammar is promoted for editable or read-only selections with at least six words when the selected AI source is available.

Enabled actions remain available in your Actions list even when Smart Suggestions do not promote them for the current selection.

Requirements and privacy

  • Apple Intelligence and Ollama Local keep the request on your Mac.
  • External AI Provider requires Online Actions and uses the configured provider/model or the available no-key trial.
  • The selected source is exclusive; ActionClip does not silently fall back to another source.
