Typeahead
Local AI autocomplete that works in every text field on your Mac
Visit website →About
Typeahead is a native macOS autocomplete app that suggests the next words a user will type, in every text field. It runs entirely on-device, with no servers, accounts, or telemetry, so what is written stays on the machine.
It learns the user's writing style over time and works across more than 25 apps including Slack, Gmail, Google Docs, and Notion. GPU-accelerated inference keeps suggestions fast even on Apple Silicon laptops.
It is a one-time purchase rather than a subscription. It is aimed at Mac users who want faster typing across all their apps and are unwilling to send their writing to a cloud service for the feature.

Why we picked it
Typeahead earns its place for running entirely on-device with no servers or telemetry at all — it learns your writing style locally and works across 25+ apps, a genuinely private take on autocomplete rather than a cloud-based suggestion engine.
