Private AI autocomplete for Mac.
Typeahead adds AI sentence completions to every app on your Mac. Locally, invisibly, with one-time pricing. Open Mail. Open Slack. Open anything. Just type. Tab to accept.
“You've built a Mac setup that works. Typeahead fits into it.”
If you're reading this, your Mac setup is probably already solid. Raycast for search and workflows. A good window manager. A browser with the right extensions. Maybe Alfred, maybe CleanMyMac, maybe a few other tools you paid for once and have used every day since.
These tools have something in common: they work invisibly, they don't interrupt your flow, and you paid for them once.
Typeahead is that, for writing. It runs in the background, surfaces inline suggestions as you type in any app, and disappears the moment you don't need it. Install once, $79, and it's part of your setup forever.

For Mac Users
Your questions, answered honestly.
Typeahead operates in text fields only. It doesn't intercept keyboard shortcuts or launcher behaviors. It coexists with Raycast and Alfred without conflicts.
They'd both try to suggest completions in the same text fields, which creates conflicts. Use one or the other.
Both. Apple Silicon uses the Neural Engine for fast, efficient suggestions. Intel uses an optimized smaller model. Both work fully offline.
Yes. Typeahead includes per-app controls to exclude any app where you don't want suggestions.
Yes, the same permissions that power Raycast's clipboard history and screen reader tools. Typeahead needs Accessibility access to read the active text field and insert suggestions. It doesn't log keystrokes.
Nothing. One-time purchase, license verified locally, no account to manage.
Your Mac setup is better than most. Typeahead fits right in.
One-time pricing. Runs locally. Works in every app.
Local model. Works offline. Account-free. Yours permanently.
