No screenshots
SpellType does not take screenshots or record your display for autocomplete.
No Screen Recording permission
A Mac writing assistant that does not need to watch your screen.
SpellType is built around private autocomplete in supported apps. It does not ask for Screen Recording permission, does not take screenshots, and does not use screen capture to generate writing suggestions.
Why this matters for work writing
Screen Recording permission can expose more than a draft. SpellType is built to provide autocomplete without screen capture.
Focused permissions
SpellType uses macOS Accessibility permission for autocomplete support in supported apps.
Local suggestions
Autocomplete is designed to run on your Mac instead of sending work drafts to a cloud suggestion service.
