Atua Pricing 2026

Atua is a premium productivity tool that offers 8 key features including Reusable commands with a hotkey, model, and output mode per command, Context sources: selected text, screenshots, clipboard, voice, window content, screen OCR, Template variables like {{selectedText}} inside prompts. Atua is a macOS assistant built around reusable commands rather than a chat window. You write a prompt once, attach the context it should pull in — selected text, screenshots, clipboard, voice transcript, window content, or screen OCR — assign it a hotkey and an output mode, and then run it from inside whatever app you are already in. The result is that Atua does things rather than only answering: commands can write back into the app, trigger tools, and chain multiple actions. Context references work as template variables, so a command can say review this PR diff and post comments via GitHub MCP against {{selectedText}}. It ships built-in system tools for Calendar, Reminders, Notes, Finder, Shortcuts, Shell, and HTTP, so it can read and write native Mac apps directly, and it connects external MCP servers — GitHub, Postgres, Slack, filesystem, and anything else you add — for use inside any command. Voice input runs locally on the Mac, for both dictation and Voice Paste. The privacy stance is unusually strict for this category: no accounts, no analytics, and data stays on the machine, with the model calls going out under your own API key. It is sold as a $29 one-time lifetime license with a 7-day money-back guarantee.
