Glintype
Inline autocomplete, on your Mac
Paid Writing Assistance
Overview
Glintype is a local-first inline autocomplete tool for macOS that shows ghost-text suggestions as you type across 40+ apps — Mail, Slack, VS Code, Chrome, Notion, and more. Accept suggestions chunk-by-chunk with Tab or all at once with Shift+Tab. Choose your engine: Apple Intelligence (macOS 26+), open-source GGUF models (Qwen, Gemma, Phi), or a cloud provider with your own API key. Per-app profiles let you tune tone, suggestion length, and shortcuts for each application. No telemetry, no cloud by default — one-time purchase with lifetime updates.
