Why Neatype

Small app. Big difference.

Everything you want from a writing assistant, with none of the things you don't.

100% local

The model runs on your Mac at 127.0.0.1. Your text is never uploaded to any server.

Works in every app

Mail, Slack, Notes, Safari, Chrome, code editors — anywhere you can select text.

Keeps your voice

Minimal edits that fix mistakes without paraphrasing, formalizing, or changing your meaning.

Zero setup

No account and no config. The local model downloads and starts itself on first launch.

Instant, in place

The corrected or translated text replaces your selection right where you wrote it.

Built for many languages

Fix text in the language you wrote, and translate two-way between the languages you choose.

Private by design

Your words never leave your Mac

Neatype runs a language model locally — no cloud inference and no account. Telemetry is anonymous and fully under your control.

  • Everything runs locally

    The model and all inference run on 127.0.0.1. Your text is processed on-device, not on a server.

  • No account, no subscription

    Download it and use it. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing to pay.

  • Works fully offline

    After the one-time model download, Neatype keeps working with no internet connection.

  • Telemetry you control

    Optional anonymous quality stats — switch them off entirely, including any text, in Settings → General.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is it really free?

Yes. Neatype is free to download and use — no account and no subscription.

Does my text get sent to the cloud?

No. The model runs locally on your Mac (127.0.0.1) and your text is processed on-device. Optional anonymous telemetry can be turned off entirely in Settings.

Which apps does it work in?

Any Mac app where you can select text — Mail, Slack, Notes, Safari, Chrome and more. For Electron and Chromium apps it falls back to a paste action automatically.

What do I need to install?

Nothing manual. On first launch Neatype downloads a local model runtime and model (about 2 GB) and starts it for you. Grant Accessibility once so it can read and replace your selection.

What are the requirements?

macOS 13 Ventura or later, Apple Silicon or Intel, and about 2 GB of free disk for the runtime and model.

Why does macOS warn me on first launch?

Neatype is distributed outside the App Store and is self-signed, so the first time, right-click the app and choose Open. After that it launches normally.

Which languages are supported?

Grammar works in the language you wrote in. Translation is two-way between your native language and a target language you pick in Settings.

Type with confidence, in every app

Free, local, and private. Download Neatype and fix or translate text anywhere on your Mac.
