Type as fast as you can think.

Cotypist enhances your writing style without replacing it. It offers suggestions based on your input, but you always decide what to use. Your unique voice remains intact as you choose which suggestions to keep or discard. If a suggestion doesn’t fit, just keep typing and Cotypist will adapt.

Often, only part of a suggestion is useful. That’s why Cotypist has a dedicated shortcut (the key above Tab) to accept completions word-by-word. This allows you to use only what you need, then continue typing until Cotypist’s suggestions align with your intent again.

There might be a slight learning curve as you start paying attention to completions, but most users quickly find it becomes second nature.

Cotypist can be remarkably accurate, especially with longer texts where it has more context. It sometimes even feels uncanny.

But it’s not perfect - your expertise and creativity are still crucial. After all, if it could replace all your writing, you could get replaced by a robot!

Cotypist excels with thoughtful writing rather than quick chats or messages.

Cotypist isn’t meant to replace ChatGPT or handle complex tasks. Instead, it’s designed to continuously save you time throughout your day by suggesting words you would have typed anyway.

Unlike ChatGPT, Cotypist works seamlessly in all your apps, doesn’t require crafting prompts, and keeps you in full control of your writing. It’s about enhancing your productivity, not replacing your creativity.

Cotypist works with most Mac apps. In some, like Mail.app, you might need to trigger a configurable shortcut once to activate suggestions.

We’ve disabled Cotypist by default in most IDEs and Terminal to avoid disrupting coding. In addition, dedicated tools like GitHub Copilot are better suited there.

For Google Docs, you can currently only get suggestions for comments, not document content. We’re working on improving this.

Cotypist works on any Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 13 or later. Intel Macs are not supported.

For the best experience, we recommend an M1 Pro or M2 (or higher) with 16 GB of system memory. The more powerful your machine, the smoother the experience.

While active, Cotypist uses about 1-2 GB of system memory, but it’s designed to run efficiently and won’t slow down your Mac. You can work seamlessly with your other apps while Cotypist enhances your typing speed in the background.

On systems with the recommended specs, completions should appear almost instantly. This allows you to maintain your writing flow without interruptions.

Cotypist’s powerful AI can be energy-intensive. But by helping you work faster, you might still get more done on a single charge. We’re constantly optimizing for better performance and energy efficiency.

Your privacy is paramount. All processing happens locally on your Mac. Your words and data never leave your device, ensuring the confidentiality of your work.

This local processing is not only more private, but it’s also better for the environment than running a large language model in the cloud.

While Cotypist performs best with English, it also supports many other languages. We encourage you to try it with your preferred language and see how it works for you.

During our early access phase, Cotypist is free to use. We’re still determining our pricing structure, but we aim to make it affordable for individual users while ensuring we can continue developing and improving the product.

Given the potential time savings, we believe Cotypist will easily pay for itself in improved productivity and hours saved typing.
