Generative AI and large language models (LLMs) are powerful. Thanks to ChatGPT, the chatbot interface has become the standard user interface for interacting with an AI model.

With BoltAI, you can utilize LLMs beyond the chat interface. The AI Command feature allows you to quickly ask the AI about the currently highlighted text.

By default, BoltAI is shipped with 38+ built-in commands.

How to use an AI Command?

It's really simple.

  1. Highlight the content you want to help with then press the AI Command shortcut key (default Command + Space)

  2. Select an command, or type your request

  3. Depending on your configuration, BoltAI may replace your content with the AI answer (screenshot 1 below) or open a new chat window (screenshot 2 below)

You can assign an keyboard shortcut for each AI Command to skip the command pallete popup altogether.
