## Best for

People who want AI inside mail, chats, Finder, and any text field without switching to a browser tab.

## Why it deserves attention

Fluent 2's Smart Panel reads the selection, clipboard, or window in the app you are already using, runs a saved action or a one-off prompt, and writes the result back in place. It can sign in with ChatGPT, Claude, or GitHub Copilot plans, use API keys, or run Apple Intelligence and local MLX, Ollama, and LM Studio models. Memory, MCP integrations, scheduled actions, and Computer Use cover longer jobs. Licences are one-time purchases with lifetime upgrades: Basic covers one Mac, Standard covers two. The trade-off is macOS only, Computer Use needs Accessibility permission, and complex automations are still better handled by dedicated tools.
