About this extension
Type Pilot: Autopilot for Typing
Stop retyping the same emails, addresses, and replies.
Type Pilot is an automation tool, save any text behind a short trigger like /ty, /addr, /anything-of-your-choice then type the trigger anywhere — a search box, a form and Gmail — followed by Space or Tab or even Enter and the full text appears instantly!
FEATURES
• Dynamic Snippets — Templates that ask before they insert. One template covers a thousand situations.
• A real dashboard, not just a popup. Manage snippets on a big screen.
• Works Everywhere — Tested on Gmail, WhatsApp Web, Facebook, Slack.
• Supports Mobile — Runs in Firefox for Android.
• Your Words, Your Shortcuts —
• Smart Macros — {date}, {time}, {cursor}, plus your own {anything} -style macros.
• Themes + Accent Color — Pick a color straight from any web page.
• Per-site rules: disable Type Pilot on sites with their own slash commands (Slack, Notion).
• One-click pause, themes (light/dark/custom accent), backup & restore as JSON.
• Private By Design — Everything stays on your device; no accounts, no tracking, no servers.
PERMISSIONS
• storage — Saves your snippets.
• activeTab — Used only if you click the "pick a color from this page" accent-color feature.
WHO IT'S FOR
Customer support, sales, recruiters, developers, teachers — anyone who types the same things twice. If you've paid for a text expander that ignores Firefox, this is your way out: import your snippets as text and go.
The extension needs to read the pages you type on to expand your triggers. It runs entirely on your device and never contacts any servers.
