Typeahead

Typeahead runs locally on macOS to autocomplete text across multiple Mac apps. It learns your phrases and adapts to each app with writing styles and language support, while keeping processing on the device. The tool is designed for people who write a lot, including professionals and teams, who want writing suggestions that stay on their Mac and do not send data to a server. It emphasizes privacy, offline work, and control over how suggestions are generated and used.

The system uses a local AI model selected from a set (Gemma, Qwen, and others) or a user-provided GGUF model file. After setup, it operates in the menu bar and integrates with apps like Mail, Slack, Notion, and browsers. It emphasizes that no account is required and that license checks and updates may occur online, while the actual writing remains on the Mac.

The product provides features like context from the screen, clipboard context, learning of phrases, and per-app writing styles. It supports 16 languages and offers insights into time saved. It highlights that all processing happens locally and that users can pause or disable functionality per app.

It mentions the ability to use it on multiple Macs under certain plans and notes a 30-day money-back guarantee.
