XXAI

XXAI (formerly Hixx) is a Mac and Windows app that puts chat, writing, search, image and video AI models behind one keyboard shortcut that works on top of any app or website.

What is XXAI?

XXAI, previously sold under the name Hixx, is a desktop application for Mac and Windows that bundles a range of AI models for writing, chatting, searching, image creation and video generation. Instead of opening separate websites, you call it up with a keyboard shortcut over whatever program you are using, ask for help and push the result straight back into that program.

It targets writers, marketers, designers and developers who currently pay for several AI subscriptions. A single XXAI account connects to the supported models, so you do not need your own API keys or accounts with each provider.

Key Features of XXAI

System-wide copilot

Pressing Shift + A opens the assistant on top of any app, document or website. Enter sends the request, and Ctrl + Enter inserts the response into the active window, which keeps you in your current workflow.

Writing suite

Built-in actions cover improving text, checking grammar, translating, summarising, changing tone and drafting email replies, supported by more than 1,000 one-click prompt templates.

Multi-model chat

Text requests can be routed to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok or Perplexity, making it easy to compare answers or pick the model that suits a task.

Image and video generation

Image models listed include Flux, Imagen, DALL·E 3, GPT-4o, Recraft and Stability AI. Video generation draws on Wan 2.1, Veo3, Kling, Luma, MiniMax and Runway, metered through monthly credits on paid plans.

AI search and document chat

An AI search assistant returns synthesised answers from the web, and paid plans let you chat with documents and website links.

XXAI Pricing

XXAI has a free plan and three paid tiers, each available monthly or annually; the pricing page advertises savings of up to 66% on annual billing, and the homepage lists paid access from $9.9 per month on an annual plan. Individual plan prices load dynamically on the pricing page, so check there for the exact figure for each tier.

Free daily credits do not roll over, and monthly bonus credits on paid plans reset each billing cycle. Plans can be cancelled at any time with access kept until the end of the paid period.

Prices checked on October 27, 2026; check the official pricing page for current plans.

Who Should Use XXAI?

  • Writers and marketers who want rewriting and translation inside every app they use.
  • Professionals who answer a lot of email and want quick drafted replies.
  • Creators who need images and the occasional short video without separate subscriptions.
  • Users who like to compare several chat models before choosing an answer.

Is XXAI Worth It?

XXAI is attractive if you are juggling multiple AI subscriptions and spend most of your day on a desktop computer. The shortcut-driven overlay is genuinely convenient, the free plan's daily credits allow real testing, and the model list covers most of the well-known names in text, image and video.

Its limits are equally clear. There is no documented web or mobile version, exact per-plan prices are only visible when the pricing page loads in a browser, and heavy video use depends on monthly credit allowances. Start with the free plan to see whether the overlay fits your workflow before committing to an annual plan.
