About Cotypist

Cotypist is a Mac app that provides smart autocomplete to help users write faster in any Mac app. It runs entirely on the user’s Mac and processes data locally, without cloud prompts or external training data. The tool targets writers who want to speed up typing while keeping their own voice, across multiple apps. It emphasizes privacy, offline operation, and integration with existing workflows.

Installing Cotypist involves dragging the app into Applications and following setup steps. The setup guidance includes tips to tailor the tool to the user’s writing style, aiming to make Cotypist sound like the user rather than the internet. It is a free download for Apple Silicon with no card required for initial use. The product highlights a waitlist option for further platforms while focusing on Mac support.

Cotypist offers inline word suggestions that can be accepted with Tab or continued typing to keep control over writing. It emphasizes offline processing, per-app usefulness, and the ability to adjust how suggestions fit the user’s voice. The interface supports emojis and appears in multiple contexts and languages. The design centers on preserving user authorship while reducing keystrokes.

The pricing and help sections outline free and paid tiers, with examples of features on different plans and guidance on testing or upgrading. It also provides setup instructions and a knowledge base for ongoing use.
