This is the core functionality of TypeBoost: Apply a prompt to any text you select (We call it "boosting text"), it's super simple.
Here's how it works:
In any app – Mail, Notes, your browser, or a code editor:
Select the text you want to rewrite, enhance, summarize, translate, or otherwise transform like if you want to copy it.
💡 TypeBoost only works when some text is selected. If nothing is selected, the app will remind you to highlight something first.
Use your configured global shortcut (e.g. Ctrl + Space
) to open TypeBoost. Find out how to set it up here.
✅ Press Enter to run the selected prompt.
Once the result is ready, you can:
That’s it, as simple as that.
You’re writing an email. You highlight a paragraph, press your shortcut, choose
Improve Email
, and press Enter. TypeBoost refines your text to eliminate errors and enhance its overall quality. You press Enter again, and the new version replaces the original. Done in seconds.
