Summary
Cotypist is a Mac app that brings AI-powered autocomplete to any application — Mail, Slack, Notes, docs, and even AI prompts. Developed by Daniel, the app runs entirely locally on the user's Mac with no cloud or API calls. It provides real-time text suggestions that users can accept with Tab or ignore by continuing to type. The article is a Product Hunt relaunch announcement where the developer expresses gratitude for being featured again after the initial launch in May.
