Show HN: I made a text expander to reduce repetitive typing

1 points by bevis_chang 13 hours ago

I recently developed a browser extension called RushType, designed to reduce the hassle of repetitive typing and quickly paste text templates. The idea came from my experience recruiting testers for my paid app on Reddit. At the time, I had to manually adjust message content and attach a promo code for every message—so many repetitive actions. I thought, wouldn't it be great to automate this with a simple shortcut? That’s how RushType was born.

Key Features of RushType: Customizable text templates and shortcuts: Compatible with almost all text input fields on websites. Quick date and time insertion: No more manual input for timestamps. Google Sheets integration: Fetch and paste content directly from a spreadsheet—perfect for handling large volumes of automated messages. If you frequently post messages online (like job listings, customer replies, or ad copy), this tool can save you a lot of time and effort.

Note: Now is in the process of applying for OAuth verification, so you may see a security warning during login. This is temporary, and we are actively working on resolving it.

This tool is newly launched, and I’d love for you to try it out and share your feedback—it would mean a lot to me!
