I(we) absolutely LOVE typedesk. This is a no brainer for any solopreneur or team that have to deal with customers support, fill forms on a regular basis, or just save time in general. It also syncs up on the cloud with everyone on the team so we have brand consistency across the company and remove the guessing out of the replies that our team have to generate keeping it custom for all our clients. We write or edit it once, and the entire team is automatically up to date for their very next communication. It's 10x faster, and works like a charm across all our platforms. UI is friendly with minimal learning curve. And like that wasn't enough, they just brought chatGPT integration at no extra cost allowing us to bring the power or 'reply', 'paraphrase', 'summarize' and much more to all our activities with the press of a keystroke. No need to copy/paste from one app to another or even having to go to chatgpt itself, it brings it right there and then for us. Thank you, definitely makes our life much easier. Our team now use it for their personal tasks as well.

I use typedesk more often that Google.
This is pretty much all there is to say:
I can not imagine using a computer efficiently without typedesk.
Actually, the only thing missing right now is the mobile app.
Because I'm sooo used to typedesk that my smartphone feels clunky without it !
This is easily the best purchase I've made regarding my productivity in years.
Jonathan Pak - Online Nutrition Coach
Very flexible & convenient, very fast, active developing team with regular updates!
Saving me hours of my time.
Gerrit Grunert - Looking for Gmail CREMs
Simple app that saves an abundance of time in canned responses across browser and Mac desktop.
Long Nguyen - Multimedia Designer and Zenfluencer.
A great productivity boost for me.

I have purchased many lifetime deal apps (and their competitors) over the years because I believe that technology stacks can improve efficiency, quality, and customer experience. Many of these deals end up being okay. Some end up dying or being duds. typedesk is one of the few I'm proud to champion. It does its job, and does its job well. It is easy to set up new prompts for expansion, and I feel the pull to create one any time I'm writing text that I think will be a repeated in the future. I don't have to reinvent the wheel everytime I receive a question, and I can standardize my team's responses.
We are a law firm, so client confidentiality is also of upmost importance. I really appreciate typedesk's focus on user privacy. Not only do they claim a privacy-centric approach, they explain how they can accomplish it. Before typedesk, I had written a script to insert canned responses into emails and saved my team all kinds of time, but now we can use canned responses anywhere, and it has a much better user experience than what I had been able to provide. Now, typedesk has done it again with their GPT integration! GPT is great, but having it available in context is another great time-saving feature. Now I don't need to rely on another one of my hacky scripts to accomplish the same.
This product is reasonably priced, has a great interface, works reliably, focuses on privacy, and has its finger on the pulse. I recommend this product all over the place, and the team makes it really easy for me to want to do so.
Keep it up @michel_vermeulen1 !
Alex Shahrestani - Law partner and legal-tech founder.
Congrats on the launch. typedesk is an excellent productivity app that I use every single day. Best wishes.
Shorif Ahmed Adil - Digital marketing expert
typedesk is awesome. I've saved so much time in my financial planning business. I use canned responses for marketing, regular emails for clients, regular phrases, and plan to add more for my advice documents.
I can only imagine how good it's going to be with an OpenAI integration.
Grant Millar - I'm a financial adviser who loves tech.
Love it!! I would love to see more case uses for ChatGPT integration. I saw just the video from the blog. Love the tool and have been using it for a while.
Zee Ali - Founder of ZSwag.com and Wealth Armor.
I have been using Text Expander for more than 6 years, but I have decided to move to typedesk because it has a better pricing for my company with more or less the same features, and they even keep adding more functionalities.
Antonio Cárdenas - Entrepreneur
typedesk is a cross-platform tool that is highly valued by its developers and receives frequent updates. Although I sometimes encounter problems with new updates, the responsive team promptly fixes them. Overall, my experience with typedesk has been excellent.

Hi all. This product is well developed, easy to use and fast. I use typedesk for months now. Every day it helps me to accelerate my work. I can use canned response everywhere, shortcuts for common texts and organize them by theme. You can elaborate longer text models with variables. With ChatGPT integrated, it will become faster than ever. A must have tool. Bravo et mille fois merci !! @michel_vermeulen1

A useful cross-platform tool that gets much love and attention from its developers and regular updates. From time to time, I run into issues with new updates, but these are quickly fixed by their responsive team and my overall my experience with typedesk has been amazing.
Panther Productions - Founder Freelance FOSS web agency
Exceptional piece of software. I need to write a ton of E-Mails and created some templates for myself, which I just copied. The Problem was that I needed to manually change some elements like names and other information unique to every single mail. Every so often, it's easy to forget to fill out one of the blank spaces within my text template after copying, which is frustrating when you have sent an e-mail with "Hello _____". There may be some more or less complicated workarounds within some writing & Mail Software I use, but nothing has been as easy to use as typedesk. You can paste your precomposed text in typedesk as a new "canned response", replace your "_____ blank_____" with a variable, individualize how you want to be prompted when it's time to fill in the information in the blank fields. From now on, you just type "/" + "your pre-defined shortcut" and there you go.
My personal Killerfeature: It lives outside your applications, so it can be used with every single piece of software where you need to enter text. Regardless if it's within a browser, Mail application, Word, Excel etc.
Marifl - @marcus_ifland
This is an amazing tool I have been using for about a year now. The latest version is super fast. I can prepare all the canned messages I usually use (I'm sure your like me and often use the same sentences ;). SO, it's a big THUMBS UP for typedesk !
Ghislain DEMONDA - Everlasting learner
Fantastic app. I have been a customer for past 2 years. Deployed this on 6 of our companies and my users can't function without this tools. We have adopted it into daily operation. Simply the best. We stopped using the rest of the tools despited we paid for them.
Andy Tran - @andy_tran15
typedesk has helped and my company be productive everywhere, where we need to reuse text. Even when programming it's very helpful. It can act as a codesnippet database. For marketing, we have saved our brand color codes easiliy accessible by just typing :color and then selecting the color we want. The code is then automatically added to any text field. Super useful!
Tobias Geisler - Coach & CEO
There's no app that can do what this does.
Rita Schaff - I love testing applications
I was a Textexpander user, but I like typedesk more. The user experience is better and now that they have implemented a way to use Openai is just way better than their competitors.
David Peter - @david_peter6
🤗 I have been using typedesk since December 2021 and I will never go back, there are really so many use cases for this incredible tool, that a comment is not enough, I will summarize it by saying that I use it every day and at all times: A keyboard shortcut + a couple enter or text entries and everything solved... 🔥 Many customers have noticed the difference and have asked me directly "How do you do it?", obviously I have recommended them in every way.
🤯 I've seen the announcements of the new features, specifically the integration with ChatGPT, it will be a very powerful thing to further increase the value over typedesk and also improve day-to-day productivity. About this (and it is understood) the only thing I regret is that it requires a paid ChatGPT account, which is an AI that I have tried, I see its potential for use, but I still haven't finished integrating it into my flow to pay for it. I know that day will come sooner rather than later, but for now I will wait.
Thanks to the amazing team at typedesk, they are the best 🏆 @michel_vermeulen1
-- Idioma nativo:
🤗 Estoy usando typedesk desde diciembre 2021 y jamás volveré atrás, realmente son tantos los casos de uso para esta increíble herramienta, que no basta un comentario, lo resumiré diciendo que lo uso todos los días y a toda hora: Un atajo de teclado + un par de enter o entradas de texto y todo resuelto... 🔥 Muchos clientes han notado la diferencia y me han preguntado directamente "¿Cómo haces?", obviamente los he recomendado en todo sentido.
🤯 He visto los anuncios de las nuevas funciones, específicamente la integración con ChatGPT, será algo muy poderoso para aumentar aún más el valor sobre typedesk y también para mejorar la productividad en el día a día. Sobre esto (y se entiende) lo único que lamento es que requiera cuenta pago de ChatGPT, que es una IA que he probado, veo su potencial de uso, pero aún no la termino de integrar a mi flujo como para pagar por ello... Se que ese día llegará más temprano que tarde, pero por el momento esperaré.
Gracias al increíble equipo de typedesk, son los mejores 🏆 @michel_vermeulen1
Jorge A. Merino - DISEÑADOR GRÁFICO Y WEB
Have been using typedesk for a year, it saves so much time to not write the same again and again (names, emails, greeting formulas).
And I have been beta testing the ChatGPT integration,it works as promised.
Apart from not having to use the openai interface, I just change the keyword and don't have to retype or copy paste the basic prompt.
And Michel always responsive.
Torsten P. - CEO automation.re - find embedded iPaaS
I absolutely love typedesk, and use it for a bunch of canned (and less canned, to be honest) responses, including a regular report I need to create for a client (cheating? No. Optimising it and just filling the numbers and name in [and a bit of random boilerplate] for a weekly report? YES!). Now enhanced with ChatGPT? Sign me up! I've been an avid recommender of typedesk in my businesses for a while now. @michel_vermeulen and his team just gave me even more reason to move all my teams over.
Theo Pistorius - Founder of 4 SA biz's. Pls no cryptos
Use for product support where repetitive replies are not as simple as using an FAQ. Easy to paste and then edit to suit individual questions. Timesaver as well as brain saver!
J GW - hi
Typesk is absolutely brilliant! It's one of the products/services i use more on my day to day, and it makes my work a lot easier. Definitely recommend people check it out (plus the new GTP feature looks very promising)
David Suescun - Hi! My name is David Suescun
I had a couple of other tools that provided some similar functions to typedesk, but once I started to learn the additional capabilities, I dumped the others and settle on typedesk. I’ve still far from master everything that could be possible, simply down to the availability of my time, but I use it daily, I’ve been able to separate home and business uses into a clearly define set, and can call them from a single interface. Being able to return different data, in multiple ways depending on circumstance is brilliant, it simply prompts me to give it the right scenario, and it reformats to suit. I had a small issue with the Mac version on initial install, but support were responsive, helpful and resolve the issue in the next release, and gave me a temporary work around. Bugs are fine if support is there, so that was a positive experience too. I’m very happy with typedesk and look forward to expanding my use of it, and continue to share knowledge about it with friends and colleagues so they benefit too.
Mike Foston - Hi
I can't live without typedesk. Every time I find myself typing something I've typed before, I add it to typedesk so I never have to manually type it again. The program is consistently maintained and faster than ever with the latest update. Will be a tool I use forever. I used to insert "Quick Parts" in my email, which is Outlook's version of canned text answers. It doesn't hold a candle to typedesk since I can use typedesk anywhere on my computer, not just email. It rocks.
Paul Colaianni - •
absolutely love TypeDesk for what it offers, and not only the product, but the customer service.
Paul Burns - Bookkeeper
Really useful. easy to use everyday
Greg Petithomme - @greg_petithomme
typedesk allready was really usefull as my textexpander. But when I started using ChatGPT and other AI tools I quickly starting using typedesk as my prompt repository too.
If you are into prompting you'll notice that there is a lot of reoccuring phrases. Like "Imagine you are a SEO specialist" and "Write using Hemmingway rules". Exactly those elements you can store in typedesk and use easily to construct your 'perfect' prompt. And you can use it in ChatGPT but also in all other AI tools.
For me typedesk is the 'perfect' prompt repository.
Asing Ku - @asing_ku
typedesk changed the work of my team, it was not the first canned-response system we used but it's been the first we loved because of its reliability and simplicity to use
Luca Ronchi - @luca_ronchi
i been using typedesk for several years, since 2021, i would say the software is great,
i have windows/mac they sync perfectly, this is one of the software that i use everyday,
it saves much of my time on thinking on how to answer clients, i have my FAQ in typedesk, i just search it and copy/paste into my support desks. i love it has a search function, and i can share the answers with my co-workers. so they save time on answering FAQs.
李鼎嘉 - @new_user_74d7929319
typedesk is an automation tool for canned responses that can help increase efficiency and productivity in customer support. With this tool, agents can create and save predefined responses for common questions, allowing them to quickly respond to customers without having to type the same response over and over again.
typedesk is especially useful for those who work in customer support or similar roles where they receive many similar questions. Users can organize their responses into categories for easy searching and retrieval, and they can also customize their responses with replacement fields to tailor them to each specific case.
Tony Wiljanden - @tony_wiljanden
Congrats @michel_vermeulen1 on the new launch. typedesk has hit the floor running, adding great value and features from the start. It has come a long way with each new update. Michel has always provided great support and eager to build on client suggestions. The UI/UX has improved so much and the canned responses are now super fast. With adding things like ChatGPT, we look forward to future development. Last year I wanted to use typedesk to fill out repetitive online forms and he said that it is not possible at the moment but finished the email with "But, never say never". Well, we are now in neverland.

Haley Dermody - @haleyderm
typedesk is a great tool, if you feel you type something more than twice a day you can automate this text easily. Also it is able to create dinamic canned responses so you can customize the text with a few clicks. It's a must have in your productivity arsenal.
Juan Durán - @juan_duran
typedesk is an amazing app, and i've been using for quite some time now! Thanks @michel_vermeulen1 for adding the OpenAI integration.
Do you have any tutorials setup yet on how to actually use the integration?
Ali Khalil - @ali_khalil
Oh mighty God, I pray for blessings upon typedesk launching on Product Hunt today. This tool is of immense value to our team and we use it on a daily basis to streamline our work. I pray that it is well-received by the community and that it will be just as useful to others as it is to us. Please bless the developer and all those involved in bringing this great product to market. Amen.

Started using it a few weeks ago... it's honestly a god send [can't believe it's the only solution out there of its type]...
And the beauty of it is that it's reasonably priced, the team is responsive and it just works!
Can't wait for the future of TypeDesk!
