Your writing never leaves your computer.

Fixelect runs its AI model on your own machine. There is no account, no cloud and no telemetry. This is everything it ever sends over the network:

Every network request Fixelect makes
WhenWhere toWhat is sent
Once, when you choose a modelTo Hugging FaceA request for the model file. The download is checked against its published SHA-256 checksum.
At most once a dayTo GitHubAn anonymous question: is there a newer version? No identifiers, no text, no usage data. You can turn it off, and installs from the Microsoft Store skip it because the Store handles updates.
Your textNowhereNever sent.
No keystroke logging
Fixelect reads only the text you select and ask it to work on.
Your clipboard, put back
It borrows the clipboard for a moment to read and replace your text, then restores what was there. Clipboard history skips it.
Works in airplane mode
Once the model is downloaded, no connection is needed.
Open to inspection
The code is public under the MIT License. Read it on GitHub, or watch the network traffic yourself.

Every change is yours to undo.

A model that fits your computer.

On first launch you choose the AI model Fixelect will use. It runs on your graphics card if you have one, and on the processor if you don't.

Models Fixelect recommends
ModelDownload sizeBest for
Gemma 4 E2B3.1 GBRecommended. It fixed the most mistakes in our tests and is the model that handles Uzbek.
Qwen 2.5 3B2.0 GBThe previous default. Quick and careful, but fixes fewer mistakes in long sentences.
Qwen 2.5 1.5B1.0 GBFor lighter laptops and computers without a graphics card.

A loaded model uses 1 to 4 GB of memory. Fixelect frees it after a break and reloads it in a few seconds. If fixes are slow on your computer, it offers a smaller model. It never switches by itself.

Eight languages, and a ninth in beta.

Fix, Polish and Translate work in all of them. Uzbek needs the Gemma 4 model. Text in any other language is left unchanged on purpose.

Questions

Something else? Write to founder@fixelect.app.

Is Fixelect really free?

Yes. Fixelect is free and open source under the MIT License. There is no account, no subscription and nothing to buy inside the app.

Does my text ever leave my computer?

No. The AI model runs on your computer. Fixelect goes online only to download the model you choose and, unless you turn it off, to check for updates. It has no telemetry and does not log your keystrokes.

Which apps does it work in?

Browsers, email, Slack, Word, Google Docs, Notion, code editors: anywhere you can select text. A few fields block copying, such as password boxes, some games and remote desktops, so Fixelect can't read them. It is switched off in terminals and password managers by default.

Which languages does it support?

English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian and Ukrainian. Uzbek is in beta and needs the Gemma 4 model. Text in other languages is left unchanged on purpose.

What does my computer need?

Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, and 1 to 3 GB of disk space for a model. A loaded model uses 1 to 4 GB of memory and is freed after a break. A graphics card makes fixes faster but is not required.

How do I get my original text back?

Click Undo on the card, or press Ctrl+Z in your app. Later on, open History: every change is listed there with Copy original.

It said “Looks good”, but I can see a mistake.

Fixelect only makes changes it is sure about and never rewrites correct words, names or code. Polish rewrites more freely, so try double-tapping Ctrl instead.

The shortcut clashes with another app.

Pick a different preset under Settings, Shortcuts, or record your own. The status line there shows conflicts.

Why is the first fix after a break slower?

Fixelect frees the model's memory when you haven't used it for a while and reloads it on your next fix. You can change how long it waits, or switch this off, under Settings, General.

Is there a Mac version?

A preview for Apple Silicon Macs is on GitHub. It installs and opens, but it is still a work in progress and not ready for everyday use. The Windows version is the stable one.
