Your words,

An animation for illustration. The real typing happens in your Word document.

The film

WordTypist in 74 seconds

From placing the cursor and typing letter by letter to reading back and comparing the whole text. Best with sound on.

The app interface in the film comes from real screenshots. The document window is illustrative; the real typing happens in your Word.

Who it’s for

It does one thing: types your finished text into Word, exactly as written

It helps in the cases below. Please read the last one first.

Getting finished text into Word

Meeting notes, weekly reports or drafts written elsewhere need to go into a Word document as they are. Paste them into the app, place the cursor, and it types them in for you.

Text that has to go in letter by letter

The text enters the document one keystroke at a time, not as a single paste. Want to take over midway? Press a key in Word and it pauses. You can let it carry on later.

Every character checked at the end

Long entries invite dropped or wrong characters. When it finishes, the app compares the whole text and tells you plainly: “Verified identical”, or exactly where the differences are.

Not for: work you’re required to write yourself

Not for homework, exams or essays, or anything else you’re expected to write yourself. WordTypist doesn’t hide itself, and it makes no promise that other software can’t detect automated typing. Use it only in documents you’re allowed to edit, and follow the rules of your school or workplace.

Features

Types the way you would at a keyboard,
then checks the result for you

Built for desktop Word. It does one thing, and does it carefully.

System keystrokes

Every character reaches Word as a system keyboard event. No clipboard, no changes to the document file. Chinese, English, numbers, punctuation, blank lines, tabs and common emoji go in as written.

Checked as it types

It reads back segment by segment while typing, then compares the whole text at the end. Progress has three layers: Sent, Confirmed, Verified. Anything it can’t check is plainly marked Unverified.

Background typing on Mac

On Mac, turn on Background typing and you can get on with other work once it starts; keystrokes go only to Word. The Windows version types in the foreground only: keep Word in front, and switching away pauses it.

Pause, then pick up where it left off

Before resuming, it reads the document back to find exactly where to continue. Word’s AutoCorrect changes and your own edits are kept: no repeats, no gaps. If the position can’t be pinned down, it asks you. It never guesses.

Three typing rhythms

Steady, Fast and Natural rhythm, with adjustable speed. A countdown runs before it starts, and a floating panel in the top-right corner shows progress and time remaining.

Never uploaded, never saved

Your text lives in memory only and is cleared when you quit. It isn’t written to logs, preferences or any file, and it never goes online. No account, no analytics.

Typing modes

Three rhythms. Pick the one that fits.

Every mode types letter by letter, checks as it goes, and can be paused or stopped at any time.

Default

Steady

An even pace, reading back after every short segment.

  • 300 characters per minute by default, adjustable from 30 to 1,200, or set a total duration instead
  • Best for long or important documents

Fast

As fast as Word can actually take it.

  • The send queue is capped, so it slows down automatically when Word falls behind
  • Still checked segment by segment, and stoppable anytime

Natural rhythm

A varied pace, with short pauses at the ends of sentences and paragraphs.

  • Optional: now and then mistypes a letter in an English word and corrects it (off by default)
  • Only backspaces after a read-back confirms it; if it can’t confirm, it pauses

Natural rhythm only changes how the typing looks on screen. It is not proof that you wrote anything yourself.

How it works

Three steps

  1. First launch

    On Mac, the app walks you through two permissions: Accessibility and Automation for Word. The second is used only to read the cursor position and text for checking. The Windows version needs no extra permissions.

  2. Place the cursor, paste your text

    In Word, put the cursor where the text should go. Paste your text into the app, click Detect Cursor, and check the document name and the text around the cursor.

  3. Choose a mode, start typing

    After the countdown it types letter by letter. On Mac you can switch to other work meanwhile. When it’s done, check the result: “Verified identical”, or exactly where it differs.

The WordTypist window: your text on the left; on the right, the detected cursor position in Word, the three typing modes, the Background typing option and the Start typing button
Safety

If anything’s off, it stops

Before each send, the app checks the state of Word. If something isn’t right, it stops sending, so nothing lands in the wrong place.

It pauses on its own when

  • You press a key or click in Word to take over
  • You switch Word documents, or Word opens a dialog
  • The cursor is moved somewhere else
  • Word quits, or a permission is turned off
  • What it reads back doesn’t match what it expected

You’re in control

Pause / Resume⌃ ⌥ ⌘ P Mac · Ctrl Alt Win P
Emergency stop⌃ ⌥ ⌘ . Mac · Ctrl Alt Win .
CancelNever deletes what’s already typed

The shortcuts work from any app, and the floating panel has Pause and Stop buttons too.

Privacy

Your text, your computer

Typing and checking both happen on your computer. Your text never leaves it.

Never uploaded

No remote services, no AI. It goes online only for the free trial, pricing and payment, license checks and updates, and sends only an order number, activation code and device identifier (salted hash).

Memory only

Your text is never written to logs, preferences, databases or temporary files, and it’s cleared when you quit.

Leaves your clipboard alone

It reads the clipboard once, only when you click Paste. It never monitors the clipboard or records keys in other apps.

No account, no analytics

No sign-up and no usage data collected. The app itself sends no crash reports.

Good to know: WordTypist has no code-signing certificate. When you run the installer, Windows may show “Windows protected your PC” once (click “More info”, then “Run anyway”) or “Open File – Security Warning” (click “Run”). You confirm it once, and no administrator rights are needed. With Smart App Control turned on, Windows 11 blocks unsigned apps outright; see the FAQ below. The installer includes everything it needs to run, which is why it’s larger than the Mac version. No separate .NET install required.

Mac: install and first launch

  1. Open the DMG and drag “Word 输入助手” (WordTypist) onto the “应用程序” (Applications) folder.
  2. Double-click it in Applications. When macOS says it can’t verify the developer or that the app was not opened, click Done. That message is expected, because the app isn’t notarized by Apple. Don’t click “Move to Trash”.
  3. Open System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll all the way down to Security, find the message saying “Word 输入助手” was blocked, and click Open Anyway. Confirm once more and enter your login password or use Touch ID. You only do this once. After that, it opens normally from Applications.
  4. Follow the cards in the app to allow two permissions, Accessibility and Automation › Microsoft Word, then click Refresh. These permissions apply to this app only, and you can turn them off in System Settings at any time.

Windows: install and first launch

  1. Click “Download installer” above. If your browser (especially Edge) says the file isn’t commonly downloaded, choose “Keep” in the downloads list. Again, that’s because it isn’t code-signed.
  2. Double-click the downloaded installer. If you see “Windows protected your PC”, click More info, then Run anyway. If you see “Open File – Security Warning”, click Run. This is the normal prompt for software without a code-signing certificate, and you only confirm it once. There’s no install location to choose and no administrator rights needed.
  3. When the progress bar finishes, the app is installed and opens by itself. Later, open it from the Start menu or the desktop icon (named “Word 输入助手”). Open Word and your document, then follow the steps in the app: place the cursor, paste your text, start typing. Keep Word in front while it types.

Using the portable zip? Right-click it, choose “Extract All” to a permanent location, then double-click WordTypist.exe in that folder. Don’t drag out just that one file: it needs the other files in the same folder.

Download only from this site. You can check each file against the SHA-256 above: on Mac run shasum -a 256 file in Terminal; on Windows run Get-FileHash file in PowerShell.

FAQ

Good questions

How do the free uses work?

Before activation, each computer gets 3 free uses. A use is counted when you click Start typing, the target check passes and sending actually begins. Resuming after a pause is part of the same use, and a check that fails before starting doesn’t count. Uses are recorded on the license server per computer, so reinstalling doesn’t reset them. The free trial needs an internet connection.

How do I buy, and how soon can I use it?

Click Buy / Activate in the top-right corner of the app and choose how to pay.

WeChat (China): scan the seller’s WeChat QR code in the app and pay in WeChat. The seller sends you an activation code to paste into the same card.

Outside China? Email ff3451049808@gmail.com to arrange payment. The seller then sends you an activation code to paste into the same card.

Until then, you can keep using your remaining free uses.

What if I get a new computer or reinstall?

One license activates one computer. Reinstalling WordTypist on the same computer keeps the activation. After reinstalling macOS or Windows, paste your activation code into the Buy / Activate card again, so keep it somewhere safe.

To move to another computer, the seller first needs to release the old one: email ff3451049808@gmail.com with your order number or activation code.

Why does it need the internet? Does it upload my text?

No. It goes online only to count free uses, fetch the price and payment options, check the license, and look for a new version at launch. It sends only an order number, activation code and this computer’s device identifier (a salted hash). Your text stays in memory, and typing and checking happen entirely on your computer. Once activated, it keeps working through short internet outages.

How do updates work?

Since version 1.0.2, WordTypist checks for a new version when it starts. If there is one, a banner appears; click Update and relaunch, and it downloads, verifies and installs the update, then restarts itself with your license and settings intact. An update is installed only if it passes the developer’s signature check; if it doesn’t, the app gives up and asks you to download from this site instead. You can always download and install manually if you prefer.

I use WPS. Will it work?

Not yet. It needs Microsoft Word, the desktop version for Windows 10/11 or macOS. WordTypist doesn’t just simulate typing: it reads the document back to confirm where to insert and checks every character afterwards, and that relies on Microsoft Word’s automation interface. WPS is a different program without the same interface. WPS support on Windows is being evaluated and depends on real-world testing; if it becomes possible, it will arrive through the in-app update. WPS for Mac has no usable automation interface, so it isn’t possible for now. Before buying, make sure you have Microsoft Word: the top bar of the app shows “Ready” or “Word not found”.

What languages is the app in?

Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and English, following your system language. Systems set to Traditional Chinese (Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau) get Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese systems get Simplified Chinese, and every other language gets English. The text you type can be in any language, whatever the interface language.

How do the Mac and Windows versions differ?

The core is the same: three typing rhythms, segment-by-segment checks, and pause and resume. On Mac you can turn on Background typing and keep typing while you use other apps. The Windows version types in the foreground only: Word needs to stay in front, and switching away pauses it. A license activates one computer, and a Mac and a Windows PC each count as one.

Why does the Mac version need Accessibility permission?

Sending keystrokes, confirming Word’s current window and cursor, and noticing when Word opens a dialog all require it. It’s granted to this app only, and you can turn it off at any time in System Settings › Privacy & Security › Accessibility. The Windows version needs no extra permissions.

Will it change my document or Word settings?

The text goes in only through keystrokes, never through scripts, and your Word settings are left alone. The app only reads the active document’s name, the cursor position and the text, to confirm where to insert and to check the result. The one exception: when it needs to relocate and you click “Move cursor back to resume point”, it moves the cursor once, without typing anything.

What content is supported?

Plain body text and paragraphs: Chinese, English, mixed text, numbers, punctuation, blank lines, tabs and common emoji. Tables, images, equations, footnotes, headers and footers, and text boxes aren’t supported yet, and neither are Word for the web and WPS (see above). Before starting, put the cursor where the text should go, without selecting anything.

What if Word’s AutoCorrect changes my text?

Word may turn straight quotes into curly ones, or -- into a dash. Before starting, the app points out anything in your text that might trigger AutoCorrect. If it spots a difference while typing, it pauses and explains, and you decide whether to accept it and carry on, or turn off that AutoCorrect option in Word.

Does Natural rhythm prove I typed the text myself?

No. It only changes how the typing looks. WordTypist doesn’t hide itself, and it makes no promise that other software can’t detect automated typing. Use it only in documents you’re allowed to edit, and follow the rules of your school or workplace.

On Windows, nothing happens when I double-click, or it gets blocked

If you see “Windows protected your PC”, click “More info”, then “Run anyway”. That’s the normal prompt for software without a code signature. If you’re using the portable zip and nothing appears, or a black window flashes and closes: delete the extracted folder, right-click the zip, choose Properties, tick “Unblock”, click OK, and extract it again. Or just use the installer instead.

If it says Smart App Control blocked it (Windows 11 only): while Smart App Control is on, software without a code signature is blocked outright, with no “Run anyway” option. WordTypist isn’t code-signed yet, so the only way to use it is to turn Smart App Control off in Windows Security › App & browser control › Smart App Control settings. That removes a layer of system protection, so weigh it up for yourself; on some versions of Windows, turning it back on requires resetting Windows. If you’d rather not turn it off, please don’t buy for now.

If your security software raises an alarm, add WordTypist to its trusted list; again, it’s because there’s no code signature. If it still won’t open, a window saying the app ran into a problem appears. Click “Copy details” and email them to ff3451049808@gmail.com (the details don’t include your text).

I updated in the app, but the old version still opens

Most likely the program files were blocked or in use by security software during the update and weren’t replaced. Click “Update and relaunch” again; if that doesn’t work, download the installer from this site and run it once. Your activation is kept, so there’s no need to enter the code again. Since 1.3, if an update doesn’t go through, the app tells you why the next time it opens. If you used the portable zip before, you can delete the old extracted folder after installing, along with any desktop shortcut you made for it; use the icon the installer creates instead.

“Can’t verify the developer” or “Windows protected your PC”: is it safe?

WordTypist doesn’t yet have Apple notarization or a Windows code-signing certificate, which is why the system shows these warnings. Download only from this site, and use the SHA-256 in the download section to check that the file is intact.

How do I uninstall?

Mac: quit the app, drag it from Applications to the Trash, then remove it under Accessibility and Automation in System Settings › Privacy & Security. Windows (installer): open Settings › Apps (Installed apps on Windows 11, Apps & features on Windows 10), find “Word 输入助手” (WordTypist) and click Uninstall. Windows (portable zip): close the app and delete the extracted folder. Uninstalling doesn’t remove the activation from this computer, so a later reinstall won’t ask for the code again. The app stores only a few settings, such as mode and speed, plus the activation. Never your text.
