Ai Clipboard Text Optimizer

A desktop application that automatically optimizes text when you perform three clipboard copies within a 1-second interval. Select and copy text (Ctrl+C or ⌘+C) and then copy again and again within 1 second. The improved text will be copied to your clipboard.

So basically you can use this app to make your text more readable by 3 times copying and pasting.
