Distraction-free writing studio with proof of human genesis

RawType is a zero-AI, distraction-free writing studio that cryptographically verifies authentic human typing with keystroke telemetry, cognitive forensics, and tamper-evident proofs. Instead of relying on inaccurate AI detectors that generate false positives, RawType provides unforgeable proof of writing genesis.

Hey Product Hunt community! 👋
I built RawType out of frustration with where online writing is heading.
Over the past two years, synthetic AI text has flooded every corner of the web. But the real casualty isn't just content volume; it's trust. Today, whenever a student turns in an essay, a journalist publishes an investigation, or a thinker shares an article, the first reaction is often: "Did an LLM write this?"
Probabilistic AI detectors (Turnitin, GPTZero, etc.) don't fix this. They guess based on perplexity and burstiness, flagging non-native speakers and concise writers with false positives while letting paraphrased AI bypass detection entirely.
RawType flips the paradigm: Proof of Genesis instead of post-hoc guessing.
Here is what makes RawType different:
Closed Writing Sanctuary: The editor runs inside a closed Shadow DOM. Clipboard pastes (Cmd+V), text dragging, and browser extension injections (Grammarly, copilots, scrapers) are blocked at the event level.
Cognitive Forensics Engine: Real human composition is non-linear. RawType validates trusted physical keystrokes (isTrusted) and analyses inter-keystroke intervals (IKIs). It distinguishes organic conceptual pauses from the mid-sentence glance pauses typical of people transcribing text from an external screen.
Interactive Keystroke Playback: When you share a document (/d/[id]), readers don't just see static text; they can hit Play to watch your draft come alive keystroke-by-keystroke at up to 25x speed, backed by a cryptographic SHA-256 ledger checksum.
Distraction-Free Zen Experience: Dual-fading toolbars dim during active typing bursts, supported by 4 calibrated themes (Obsidian Dark, OLED Pitch Black, Slate Light, and Antique Sepia) and optional synthesised mechanical keyboard sounds.
100% Offline & Private: Works completely offline as a PWA, stores all drafts locally on your machine, requires zero sign-up, and enforces strict anti-crawler policies against AI training bots.
RawType is 100% free. I would love to hear your thoughts, feedback on the typing feel, and any features you'd like to see next!
