About this extension
Stop retyping the same replies, addresses and templates.

Type a short shortcut like ;thx in any text box (email, chat, support desk, GitHub, CRM) and it instantly becomes the full text.

• Works in inputs, text areas, rich editors (contenteditable) and, in beta, Google Docs
• Dynamic snippets: {date}, {time}, {clipboard}, {cursor} to place the caret, and {choice:Hi|Hello} to pick a variant as you type
• Forgot a shortcut? Press Ctrl+Shift+Space to search all snippets and insert one
• Select text on any page, right-click → Save selection as snippet
• Folders, tags and fast search
• Turn it off on any site with one click
• Ready-made template packs: email, customer support, developer, Vietnamese
• Import / export JSON backups; no lock-in
• Switching? Import a CSV from other text expanders or a Text Blaze JSON export: fill-in fields, menus, dates and the cursor are converted
• Share any snippet as a link: one click adds it for the person you send it to
• Ctrl+Z undoes an expansion
• ;Sig gives "Best…", ;SIG gives "BEST…"
• Expand instantly, or only after Space / Tab / punctuation
• Stats: see which snippets save you the most time, clean up the ones you never use
• Typing out a sentence you already saved? It suggests the shortcut; press Tab
• Half-typed a shortcut? The matching ones pop up; ↑↓ and Tab to insert
• Business-day dates follow your country's weekend
• Available in English, Tiếng Việt, Español, Português, Français, Deutsch, 日本語, Bahasa Indonesia and 中文

Private by design: your snippets stay in your browser (or in Chrome's own sync, if you turn it on). No account, no server of ours, no tracking. It works offline.

Free: up to 20 snippets, all of the above, and any Pro variable 5 times a day so you can try it on real work.

Pro (monthly or yearly):
• Fill-in forms: {input:Customer name} asks once, with a live preview
• Page data: pull the order number or any field from the page with {page:#order-id}, or wrap the selected text with {selection}
• Date math: {date+3bd} = 3 business days from today
• Rich text: bold, italic, links and lists in Gmail and other rich editors
• AI text: {ai:Write a polite reply} has Claude write that part, with your own Anthropic API key (no usage caps from us)
• Nested snippets: change your signature once, it updates everywhere
• Conditions: {if:Tier=VIP}…{else}…{/if} adapts the text to the answers
• Formulas: {=Qty * Price * 1.1} works out totals and discounts from the answers
• Fill a whole form: {key:tab} moves to the next field, {key:enter} sends
• Sync across every Chrome you're signed in to
• Team libraries: share one snippet set with your whole team from a URL; no accounts or seats to manage
• Images: your logo in your email signature
• Profiles: work and personal snippet sets, switched by website
• Automatic weekly backup to your Downloads folder
• Unlimited snippets, per-site snippets, bulk edit

Try every Pro feature free for 7 days on the monthly plan; cancel before it ends and you pay nothing.

Google Docs: supported in beta (expansion and the search hotkey; {selection} and page data aren't available there).
