Suggestions right at your cursor
Grey text continues your sentence in the app's own font and colour. Tab takes the next word, the key above Tab takes the rest, Esc dismisses.
Features
Autocomplete that fits the way you write
TypeBlink adds one thing to every app you type in: the rest of your sentence, in grey, right where your cursor is. Here is everything around that.

All features
Works in the apps you already use
Mail, Notes, Slack, Teams, Claude, Chrome and more: native apps, browsers and Electron apps, with no plugin per app.
Your writing stays on your computer
A language model runs on your own machine. Nothing you type is sent to a server, and the app has no analytics.
Fixes typos as you go
A misspelled word gets its fix in a small bubble. Click or arrow back onto a word later and the fix is offered again.
Finishes half-typed words
Type “Thurs” and it offers “day at 10 am.” Short words complete before you finish them.
Per-app control
Turn it on or off for each app, set app-specific instructions, and pause it anywhere with one shortcut. Code editors start switched off.
Pick the model that fits
Gemma and Qwen models from about 1 GB to 30B parameters, a recommendation for your memory, or any GGUF model you bring.
Looks right everywhere
Choose the suggestion colour (including colour-blind-safe options), strength and weight, and inline or bubble per app.
Mac, Windows and Ubuntu
One app for all three. On Ubuntu it works as a keyboard input source, so it reaches the apps you use every day.
Free, no account
No sign-up, no subscription, no word limit. Download it and start typing.
Learns your style, if you want
Write a sentence about how you write. Optionally let it learn from what you type, stored encrypted on your computer.
See what it saved you
Words completed per day, with an optional count in the menu bar.
Keyboard
Shortcuts that stay out of your way
Every key except these keeps typing as normal. All of them can be changed in Settings › Shortcuts.
| Mac | Windows & Ubuntu | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Tab | Tab | Take the next word (hold to keep taking words) |
| → | → | Take the next word |
| ` | ` | Take the whole suggestion (the key above Tab) |
| Esc | Esc | Dismiss and pause for a few seconds |
| ⌃ ` | Ctrl + ` | Ask for a suggestion where TypeBlink stays quiet (terminals, code editors) |
| ⌃ ⌥ ⌘ ` | Ctrl + Shift + ` | Pause or resume in the current app for five minutes |
Local AI models
Choose the model that fits your computer
Models download once inside the app and run on your own processor and memory. The setup assistant recommends one for your computer; switch any time in Settings › Model.
| Model | Good for |
|---|---|
| Gemma 4 E2B | Default · about 2.8 GB · fast and accurate for most Macs and PCs |
| Gemma 4 E4B | Larger, writes a little better |
| Gemma 3 4B / 1B | Proven all-rounders; 1B for lighter machines |
| Qwen 3 1.7B / 4B / 8B / 30B | From very light to very capable |
| Gemma 4 26B | For machines with plenty of memory |
| Qwen 2.5 1.5B | Small and quick |
| Your own GGUF | Point TypeBlink at any GGUF model file |
Models are made by Google (Gemma) and Alibaba (Qwen) and run through llama.cpp.
Control
Quiet where you want it, helpful everywhere else
- Switch suggestions on or off for each app, and decide whether Tab is used there
- Give an app its own instructions, like “formal” for your email client
- Terminals and code editors start switched off; ask for a suggestion there with a shortcut
- Pause in the current app for five minutes with one key, or everywhere with a key you choose
- Only suggest on demand, if you prefer to ask first
Personal
Suggestions that sound like you
- Tell TypeBlink a sentence or two about how you write
- Optionally let it learn from what you write, stored encrypted on your computer
- A word-choice slider for safer or more adventurous suggestions
- Optional context from the text on your clipboard (off by default)
- Short, medium or long suggestions, and how soon they appear
Try every feature, free
TypeBlink is free on Mac, Windows and Ubuntu. Set up takes about two minutes, most of it the model download.
