Sensory Writeable for Mac is an offline writing companion application for macOS. It analyses your writing using an on-device large language model (LLM) and provides structured, detailed feedback — all processed locally on your Mac, with no data sent to the internet.
What Sensory Writeable does
Writeable acts as a digital writing mentor. You paste your text into Writeable and choose an analysis type. Writeable then produces a commentary and suggestions for improvement. Importantly, Writeable never changes your original document automatically — the suggestions are for you to consider and apply to your own work.
Writeable provides four types of writing analysis — Structure, Style, Critique, and Flow — each focused on a different aspect of formal or academic writing.
How to open Writeable
Sensory Writeable lives in the macOS menu bar. Click the yellow Writeable icon in the top menu bar at any time to open it.
