Product tour
A focused interface for everyday writing.
Every action stays close to the selected text. Settings remain available in a dedicated, responsive page.
Privacy by design
Your text does not pass through a TypePilot server.
TypePilot uses a Bring Your Own Key model. Your selected text and relevant writing settings travel directly from Chrome to the Google Gemini API only when you request an action.
Settings also sends your key to Google to discover available models, without editor text. Google's processing of API content depends on its terms and plan. Do not submit sensitive content to unpaid Gemini services.
- API key and settings stored locally in Chrome.
- Up to five Recovery backups stored only for the browser session.
- No TypePilot account, analytics, or remote database.
- No advertising, profiling, or sale of user data.
No intermediate TypePilot backend
