Transforms

Transforms let you select text in any app and apply an edit in one tap — reformat it, clean it up, rewrite the tone, translate it, or run it through a custom prompt.

There are two primary kinds:

• Local transforms — deterministic text transforms that run locally. Built-in local transforms are available to all users; custom Local JavaScript transforms require Local Pro or Cloud Pro.
• AI transforms — cloud AI prompt transforms for rewriting, summarizing, translating, and changing tone. Custom AI transforms require Cloud Pro.

How to trigger a transform

From the keyboard — select text, switch to Nibit, tap the Transforms tab, and choose a transform. The selection is rewritten in place.

From the system text menu — select text in any app and look for Nibit in the context menu (the same menu that shows Cut/Copy/Paste). Nibit appears as a “Process text” option. No keyboard switching needed.

Share to Nibit — use Android’s share sheet to send text to Nibit, then choose a transform to run on it.

From the app home tab — open the Nibit app and tap any transform from the home screen.

From the quick hub — transforms are available as a quick-access tile without switching keyboards.

Local transforms

Local transforms are useful for formatting, cleanup, extraction, and repeatable edits that don’t need AI.

Built-in local transforms run natively and are available on all plans. When equivalent JavaScript is available, any user can view/copy it. Local Pro and Cloud Pro users can also fork that source into their own custom Local JavaScript transform.

See Built-in transforms for the included native transforms, or Custom Local JavaScript transforms to write your own.

AI transforms

Use cloud AI to rewrite, improve, translate, or reformat text. Require Cloud Pro.

Built-in AI packs:

• Writing Enhancement — fix grammar, make concise, expand, improve clarity, summarize, bullet points, extract action items, generate reply
• Tone Shift — make professional, casual, friendly, direct, or persuasive
• Translation — translate to Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and more

Install packs from Settings → Starter packs.

Custom transforms

You can create two types of personal transforms:

• Local JavaScript — write async function transform(input, nibit) and return a string. Android authoring is available to Local Pro and Cloud Pro. Web dashboard authoring and sync require Cloud Pro.
• AI prompt — write a prompt template with placeholders like {argument} and {clipboard}. AI prompts require Cloud Pro.

Create them in Nibit app → Transforms → +, or from the Cloud Pro web dashboard.
