TypeBoost

Product Introduction

1. Definition: TypeBoost is a context-aware AI writing assistant for macOS, operating as a system-level accessibility tool. It integrates directly into the macOS input system, enabling in-app AI text processing without switching applications or copy-pasting.
2. Core Value Proposition: TypeBoost eliminates workflow disruption by allowing users to apply custom AI prompts directly to selected text within any macOS application. It prioritizes user control, brand voice preservation, and contextual efficiency, enabling faster, higher-quality writing while maintaining the user’s unique style.

Main Features

1. Contextual Prompt Actions:
   • How it works: Users select text and press Control + Space to activate TypeBoost. A menu displays customizable AI prompts (e.g., "Fix Grammar," "Rewrite for Clarity"). The selected prompt sends only the highlighted text to the AI model (e.g., GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini). Output replaces the original text instantly.
   • Technology: Leverages macOS Accessibility APIs for system-wide text interception and secure local processing for prompt triggers. AI calls use encrypted API connections to user-configured providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google).
2. Fully Customizable Prompt Library:
   • How it works: Users create, save, and organize reusable AI prompts tailored to specific tasks (e.g., "Apply AIDA Framework," "Translate to Bahasa"). Prompts support dynamic variables and tone instructions. The library syncs via cloud.
   • Technology: Built-in prompt templating engine with variables ({input}, {language}) and version control. Integrates with TypeBoost’s Prompt Library for template sharing.
3. Voice Input & Multilingual Support:
   • How it works: "Voice Mode" transcribes speech to text and processes it through active AI prompts in real-time. Supports 95 languages for transcription, translation, and output.
   • Technology: Uses macOS Speech Recognition for low-latency voice capture and AI model routing (e.g., GPT-4 Turbo for translation) to maintain linguistic nuance.

Problems Solved

1. Pain Point: Workflow fragmentation from constant app-switching between writing tools (e.g., email client → ChatGPT → email client) and prompt redundancy (retyping similar instructions).
2. Target Audience:
   • Content Creators & Marketers: Crafting posts (LinkedIn, Twitter), emails, ads.
   • Freelancers & Agencies: Client communication, proposal writing, multilingual projects.
   • Developers & Technical Writers: Documentation, commit messages, code comments.
   • Executives & Founders: High-volume email, stakeholder communication.
3. Use Cases:
   • Polishing rough drafts directly in CMS/email apps.
   • Translating messages in real-time during cross-border collaboration.
   • Generating SEO-optimized copy within website builders (e.g., Webflow).
   • Voice-dumping ideas into structured text for notes or social media.

Unique Advantages

1. Differentiation: Unlike browser-based AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) or embedded writing assistants (e.g., Grammarly), TypeBoost operates at the OS level, enabling universal app compatibility (including native desktop apps like Notes, Slack, Figma). Competitors lack its prompt-action granularity and voice-to-custom-output functionality.
2. Key Innovation: Prompt-driven contextual actions – treating AI prompts as reusable, app-agnostic macros. Combined with system-wide text interception, this creates a "write anywhere, boost instantly" paradigm unmatched by clipboard managers or floating browser widgets.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is TypeBoost compatible with all macOS apps?
   Yes, TypeBoost works universally across all macOS applications via system-level integration, including browsers, native apps (Mail, Notes), and third-party tools (Slack, Webflow, VS Code).
2. How does TypeBoost handle data privacy with custom prompts?
   Selected text is sent only to the user’s configured AI provider (e.g., OpenAI API). No data is stored by TypeBoost servers. Custom prompts are encrypted locally and synced via user-owned cloud accounts.
3. What AI models does TypeBoost support?
   TypeBoost Pro supports OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-4 Turbo), Anthropic (Claude 3 Haiku/Sonnet), and Google Gemini Pro 1.5, allowing users to optimize for cost, speed, or quality per task.
4. Can I use TypeBoost for free?
   TypeBoost Free includes 50,000 one-time credits (≈500 AI actions), GPT-4o access, and basic features. TypeBoost Pro ($8/month) offers 1M monthly credits, multi-model access, extended voice mode, and cloud sync.
5. How does TypeBoost improve over using ChatGPT directly?
   TypeBoost eliminates tab-switching, enables one-click prompt application on selected text, preserves your writing style via customizable prompts, and works in any desktop app – making AI writing 10x faster than manual copy-paste to web-based ChatGPT.
