What is MeaningCue?

MeaningCue is a macOS menu bar utility for understanding unfamiliar text without leaving your current screen. Press your configured shortcut, select a region, and see the translation first—followed by a concise summary, key terms, and context when available. It uses Apple system frameworks on your Mac, keeps optional History local, and has no subscription. Requires macOS 26 or later.
