The premise

Writing software should move at the speed of a thought—not ask you to reorganize your entire day around it.

Drip Type Core

Less interface.
More momentum.

The essential writing loop, reduced to three deliberate actions. No dashboard to manage. No workspace to maintain.

01

A composer that appears anywhere

Press one shortcut over the app you are already using. Drip Composer opens in place and remembers exactly where your words belong.

Global hotkey
02

Typing that feels unmistakably human

Choose the pace, pauses, and rhythm. Drip Type returns to the active field and enters your message with controlled, natural timing.

Natural timing engine
03

Control without complexity

Pause instantly, adjust speed, or stop from the keyboard. The utility stays quiet in your menu bar until the moment you need it.

Keyboard-first control
Three seconds to flow

Invoke.
Compose.
Drip.

Everything important has a keyboard path. The interface arrives when called and disappears when the work is done.

1
Call the composer

Press ⌥5 from any supported app.

2
Shape the message

Type or paste into a focused translucent workspace.

3
Send it back

Press ⌘↵. Drip Type returns and starts typing.

One thought in.Finished words out.
The next layer

Your writing system,
not another writing app.

Pro capabilities in development
01

Rewrite in place

Change tone, length, or clarity before your text ever leaves the composer.

02

Smart templates

Build reusable messages with fields, choices, and personal variables.

03

Voice to composer

Turn a spoken thought into an editable draft without opening another app.

04

Workflow actions

Chain repeatable writing steps behind a single command.

Local-first by design

Your words are yours.
That is the whole point.

Core composition and typing happen on your Mac. Drip Type asks only for the macOS permissions required to enter text, explains each one during onboarding, and keeps you in control.

01Core drafts stay local

Your composer text is not an advertising profile.

02Permissions are explicit

Onboarding explains Accessibility and Automation access.

03Cloud actions are visible

Pro will show when selected text is sent for processing.

Straightforward pricing

Start simple.
Add power when you need it.

Answers, without the spin

What you should know.

Does Drip Type work in every Mac app?+

Drip Type is designed for standard text fields across macOS apps and browsers. Secure or specialized fields may intentionally block automated input.

Does my writing leave my Mac?+

Core composing and typing are local. Pro cloud features will process only text you explicitly submit and will include clear privacy controls.

Why does it need Accessibility permission?+

macOS requires Accessibility and Automation permission before an app can enter keystrokes into another application. Onboarding checks both before typing is enabled.

Can I cancel whenever I want?+

Yes. Once subscriptions launch, billing will be managed through Stripe and access will continue through the end of the paid period.
