Hey everyone, I'm Daniel, the developer behind Cotypist.

First, a quick thank-you to the Product Hunt team. After Cotypist launched back in May, they reached out and invited me back for a featured relaunch. I'm honestly a little stunned by that, and very grateful to be here again.

A few years ago, I noticed I'd developed a weird habit: copying conversations into Visual Studio Code, just to get GitHub Copilot's inline completions, then pasting them back into the app I should have been writing in. After enough of that, it clicked: autocomplete shouldn't live in one editor. It should work wherever you write.

So I built Cotypist. It's smart autocomplete that runs locally on your Mac (no cloud, no API calls), in basically every app you type into. Install it, give it a minute, and you're writing faster everywhere on your Mac. No long setup. Tab to accept a suggestion, keep going. Words still sound like you.

You can download Cotypist today from https://cotypist.app; there's a free 30-day trial with all the features, and there's also a free plan for casual use after that.

During early access, Cotypist has become a daily driver for founders, marketers, support folks, novelists, physicians, academics, and long-time Mac users. People who type a lot of email, Slack, and AI prompts. Plus a long tail I didn't see coming: non-native English speakers, one-handed typists, and (this still blows my mind!) not one but two Neuralink brain-implant wearers.

What still surprises me about Cotypist, even after building it, is how often it feels like it's reading your mind. Or almost like a colleague finishing your sentences.

Happy to take questions about the product, where it works (and where it doesn't), what's coming next, or anything else. I'll be here all day.

—Daniel
