    I would use this if it had a hotkey to instantly translate what I have highlighted into English in an overlay. I can see Cortex having several other keyboard shortcuts that can perform custom actions that I have set up for my account. Are there any other preconfigured shortcuts that you've thought of implementing?

      I've thought about having hotkeys for specific prompts but never thought about translation. Will try to implement!

    Is there an option for dictation mode? Would love to be able to speak and have it transcribe and submit to the LLM

      Sounds like it might be a challenge but I can definitely see the use case!

    Very cool idea! Congrats on the launch. What model is being used under the hood, and is there an option to use your own API key?

      Currently using 4o but I've been getting a lot of requests for BYOK so I'll look into implementing that!
