01 Select text
Understand a sentence
without losing your place.
Highlight text as you always do. A small QuipJot icon appears beside it; click it and the translation opens right there. Copy it, hear it aloud, or save it to your wordbook. The rest of the page waits where you left it.

02 Frame & translate
Some words can't be selected.
They can still be read.
Text in images, video frames, and app interfaces can't be highlighted, but it can still be read. Frame it and QuipJot recognizes it locally on your Mac, then copy the original or translate it in place.

Installation guideBefore you choose
Plans, billing, and what stays yours.
How do I buy?
Download and sign in to the desktop app. Open Subscription & usage, choose your payment method, plan, and billing period, then open checkout. Payment availability is shown in the app.
Does it renew automatically?
Card payments through Stripe are charged in USD and renew automatically. Cancel future renewal through subscription management in the app. Alipay is charged in CNY as a one-time monthly or annual purchase that you renew manually. Plans and allowances are the same either way.
When do allowances refresh?
Allowances refresh monthly from your purchase date, including annual plans. Unused allowance does not roll over. Translation and AI word entries count input and output tokens. Each speaking call lasts up to 25 minutes, counted in started minutes after connection. Speaking pauses at either 180 minutes or 1,500,000 voice tokens.
Can I keep my saved words after expiry?
Yes. Saved words, existing entries, and call records remain accessible. New AI requests and capture require a matching active plan. There is no free AI allowance.
Can I change plans midway?
New purchases and plan switches are disabled during an active paid period. Stripe users can cancel renewal and choose a new plan after their paid period ends.

Attention is the scarcest thing you own. Spend it on the words, not the windows.
