Brisktype
Private AI Writing Assistant for Mac (On-Device, No-Cloud)
Brisktype fixes your grammar, expands snippets, and finishes your sentences — in every Mac app. The AI runs entirely on your Mac, so nothing you type is ever sent anywhere. No account, no subscription. One-time $39.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Brisktype because every writing tool I wanted to use shipped my text to a server — so the writing I most needed help with (client emails, NDA stuff) was exactly what I couldn't paste in.
Brisktype runs the model on your Mac instead. Your text never leaves the machine. It does three things system-wide: fix grammar in place, autocomplete (Gmail Smart Compose, everywhere), and snippet expansion.
And since inference runs on your hardware, there's no server bill to pass on — so it's a one-time $39, not a subscription. Apple Silicon, macOS 14+. Here all day — ask me anything.
Love that everything stays local, honestly that's the main selling point for me. One thing I'd love to see though is a way to set custom shortcuts for specific phrases I type all the time, kind of like text expansions but tied into the AI completion context so it knows my tone
Love that it runs entirely on-device, that's a huge selling point for anyone handling sensitive work. One thing I'd love to see is a quick toggle or per-app setting to switch between strict grammar corrections and a more relaxed tone, so it doesn't over-edit things like casual messages or Slack chats where colloquial language is the whole point.
