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.
127.0.0.1 · localhostModel and inference stay on your machine.
Your text vs. an anonymous usage log
Correcting and translating happens entirely on your device. Only optional, anonymized telemetry ever leaves it.
Stays on your Mac
- The text you correct or translate
- The language model and all inference, on 127.0.0.1
- Your clipboard and your selection
Leaves only if telemetry is on
- An anonymized usage log of a correction
- By default, the text of the correction — to improve quality
- Nothing tied to your identity, ever
Built so an event can't point back to you
If you leave telemetry on, this is what keeps it anonymous.
No identity
No account, no user ID, and no IP address — your IP is never even read.
Hashed install ID
A per-install identifier is stored only as a salted hash, so installs can be counted but never traced back or cross-linked.
Time blurred to the hour
Timestamps are rounded to the hour, so an event can't be matched to a specific keystroke.
Off in one switch
Turn telemetry off in Settings → General and Neatype sends nothing at all.
Exactly what a usage event can contain
No more than this — and nothing that says who you are.
