TomTrove.
Every day, a little smoother.

Work, learn, live. All smoother. TomTrove is a personal assistant built on your own notes: in any app, select what you don't get to explain it, polish what you wrote with one key, and turn meeting notes into minutes. It works from what you gave it, and shows which notes it used.

Client email

One key, in any app

No switching windows, no pasting text into a chat box to ask again.

⌥E Explain

Select a message someone sent you: see what it means, the tone, what they want, and a few suggested replies.

⌥R Polish

Write what you want to say and press once. Pick natural, formal or casual, and it replaces your text in place.

⌥V Panel

Clipboard history, quick replies and your notes. Search, press Return, and it pastes. Clipboard history works without an account.

Grounded in your notes, not made up

Explain, polish and plugins pick the few relevant notes from your knowledge base each time. What isn't there doesn't get invented.

Getting notes in

Write a note, paste a long text and have it split, add a web link or a PDF / Word / Markdown file, or just drag it into the Mac window.

Sources shown

When your knowledge base is used, the result lists which notes, so you can check.

Newest wins

When an old and a new note cover the same thing, the newer one is used.

About me and house rules

Who you are, who you talk to, the tone you like, and rules like "no exclamation marks with clients". Polish follows them.

Install what you need

Plugins add actions below your explain and polish results. Install them from the Plugin Store in the Mac app; before installing, you see exactly what data each one can read.

Work Assistant

Turn meeting notes into minutes, reply to emails, pull out to-dos, write status updates. Names, projects and numbers come only from the text and your notes.

Job Hunt

Select a job posting: tailor your resume points, write a cover letter, prepare for the interview. Experience comes only from your notes; gaps are marked.

Life Assistant

Bills, contracts and notices in plain words: what to do, by when, and what it costs. Polite replies to landlords and businesses.

Store & Brand

Reply to customers, write posts and talk to partners for your store or brand, in your brand voice. Prices and policies come only from your notes.

Language Learning

Learn as you go: learning points in every result, sentences and words you meet become review cards, and unnatural phrasing in what you send gets flagged.

Plugins on iPhone and the web are coming.

Experimental

AI Remote

Direct Claude Code in your terminal away from the keyboard: press to speak, the AI turns it into a clear instruction in the input box, press again to send. Arrow keys pick options and switch sessions.

Built into the Mac app, off by default. All you need is a Bluetooth ring remote: the one we recommend works out of the box, and other clickers work after a quick button setup.

Choosing a remote and setup

Where you use it

One account everywhere. Your notes, quick replies and settings stay in sync.

Mac

A menu-bar app plus a main window: ⌥E explain, ⌥R polish, ⌥V panel, and your knowledge base and plugins in the window. Free to download.

iPhone keyboard

Coming soon

The TomTrove keyboard works in any app: explain, polish, quick replies. Switch languages with one tap; Chinese comes with pinyin.

Chrome extension

Coming soon

Chrome extension: select on any web page to explain, polish in any text box with one key.

Web

Manage your knowledge base and quick replies in the browser. With the Language Learning plugin, review here too.
