Parsley
macOS · Menu Bar App · Free

Paste anything, get a calendar event

Copy a hotel booking, an event flyer, or any confirmation email — Parsley reads the details and turns them into a calendar event you can review before saving, entirely on your Mac.

Currently in private beta. Parsley is being tested with a small group of testers via TestFlight before a wider release. Check back here for a public download link.

How it works

Three steps, no account, no setup.

1. Paste or drop

Paste text, paste a screenshot, or drag an image straight onto Parsley's window — from a confirmation email, a text message, or a photo of a flyer.

2. Review the details

Parsley reads the text (using on-device text recognition for images) and fills in a title, date, time, and location — all editable before anything is saved.

3. Export your way

Add it straight to Apple Calendar, download a universal .ics file for any calendar app, or open a prefilled Google Calendar link in your browser.

Built to stay on your Mac

No account. No cloud. No tracking.

Entirely on-device

Parsing and text recognition both happen locally, using Apple's own frameworks. Nothing you paste is sent anywhere by default.

No accounts, no analytics

There's nothing to sign up for and nothing being measured. Parsley doesn't know who you are, and doesn't try to find out.

Two clearly-marked exceptions

A couple of optional features need the internet to work at all (see the Privacy Policy below) — everything else never leaves your Mac.
