Once you get use to it, you won't be able to imagine your life without Dash. It will save you a bit of time every day. Many times.
As a bonus you can use the "snippets" feature as a generic text-expander. That saves me tons of time when writing emails, too.
p.s. aText is not exactly a direct competitor; however, I replaced it through the snippets feature of Dash.

This is awesome!! I use something similar on MacOS but it's a native app with offline support. The offline support is a neat feature but honestly these days if the internet is down I just don't do any development work... - https://kapeli.com/dash. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Https://kapeli.com/dash Somewhat similar tool to Autokey for MacOS that I use as a text expander. Allows for great customization - appending ; to a phrase ensures you don't accidentally expand a keystroke into a phrase/URL/etc ";url" expands into "whatever string you configure". - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
This reminded me that I needed to settle on a good system-wide Snippets manager for MacOS. Having waded through the morass of buggy and subscription-only services many times in the past, I thought to give the open-source Espanso another go, but its last commit was many months ago and I simply could not get it to recognise Ventura permissions.

I've asked ChatGPT to create excel formulas for me, that's the extent of my experience here. As far as analyzing an actual spreadsheet data, I believe the beta OpenAI tool, code interpreter, can do that. I don't have access to that, however. I have more experience with PDFs. There are several plug-ins for interacting with PDFs if you are a ChatGPT plus subscriber. For free, you can open a PDF in the Microsoft... Source: 12 months ago
