Turn your prompts into a personal AI writing toolkit. Use it inside any app on macOS. No copy-paste. No switching tools. Apply custom AI actions directly to selected text, see and control every change, and write faster while still sounding like you. Fully customizable prompts, model choice, voice input, and learning over time. Better writing. Faster. Still yours.

Hi Product Hunt 👋
I’m Benny, the maker of TypeBoost.
I use AI a lot. But it often felt messy: copy-pasting text, switching to ChatGPT, rewriting the same instructions, juggling Gemini, Claude, Apple Intelligence, or whatever. Plus, the better the prompt, the better the result. Which meant: you’d better write a good one. That felt wrong.
What I really wanted was AI inside my workflow. Right inside any app. And full control over how my text is improved. My actions. My style. My prompts. My rules.
So I built TypeBoost for macOS.
It’s not "just another AI assistant".
It’s a personal, fully customizable AI writing toolkit that lets you apply your own prompts directly to selected text, see exactly what changed, accept/reject edits on a granular level. All without breaking focus. Voice input included 🎙️
Once it becomes a habit, it’s insanely productive.
There’s also an iOS app that stays fully in sync. E.g. capture ideas by voice on the go, and they’re waiting for you on your Mac later. Or what ever you need.
I genuinely hope TypeBoost helps you as much as it helps me.
If you’ve got questions, ideas, or feedback — I’m here 😊
Cheers
Benny
@bennyqpYou did a really amazing job building TypeBoost, been using it for the past 6 months, and it is a real part of my stack!

@victormignone This is awesome to hear, Victor. It makes me genuinely happy that something I built became part of your daily workflow and actually makes you more productive!

very helpful for my non-coding activities

@jemikanegara Happy to hear that! But yeah, it's not best for coding (though it can still be useful in some situations), but for so many other tasks it's truly a huge help :)

I use Typeboost every single day and honestly can't live without it anymore
I reckon I'm saving like 1-2 hours a day thanks to the shortcuts
Total game changer!
Can't wait to see what's next

Very cool - nice to see something using ai personalized and helping get better instead of automated ai spamming on different channels. Is it bring your own key or use yours as saas?
sliiidea
@daniele_packard Yes exactly, that's one of the key ideas. To use AI to write faster, but with your actual thoughts and words and not let ai bots produce slop that just annoys everyone. At the moment it's only working as saas with my api key.

Love the value proposition and how you make the toolkit usable from anywhere. Solid UX work. A clear agentic replacement to Grammarly. Quality++

@said_aitmbarek Thanks, Said, really appreciate this feedback! As someone coming from a design background, good UX is always a top priority for me. Also, one of the main differences compared to Grammarly: With your personalized Prompt Actions, you have 100% control over what should happen and how.
The "apply custom AI actions directly to selected text" is exactly what's missing from most AI writing tools. I'm constantly copy-pasting between Claude and my editor when writing docs or blog posts. Quick question — does it support custom shortcuts for specific prompts (e.g., ⌘+Shift+E for "explain technical concept simply")?
sliiidea
@dronidev I'm happy you like the idea! Yes, it exactly makes things like this faster, easier, and your workflow more efficient.
Currently, there are just two shortcuts (Text Mode & Voice Mode). The process of selecting a prompt is really fast.
But of course, I could put custom shortcuts for specific prompts on the roadmap for the future :) Would that be something you're interested in?
@bennyqp Yeah, custom shortcuts would be huge. I have 5-6 prompts I use constantly ("simplify for non-tech audience", "make this more concise", "add code examples") and having ⌘+1, ⌘+2 etc would save so much time vs opening the prompt selector each time. Definitely interested if it makes the roadmap)

@dronidev Alright awesome, it's a pretty cool idea, I like it! It's noted and I hope to be able to ship it as soon as possible. Thank you Andrey!
