typedesk Reviews & Product Details

Typedesk saves me so much time in my daily tasks! It allows me to save a variety of useful shortcuts, and it automatically pastes in the shortcut with two or three keystrokes. I love it when I am designing because I can save a bunch of colour codes by name. Plus, I can share the shortcuts with my team, so they can do the same! And you can even use it with AI to quickly analyze and rewrite selected text without leaving the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it can lag just slightly when adding a longer input, but I don't know if that is Typedesk's fault or my own system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it saves me time and helps me create canned responses — it encourages a systems-focused mindset, so I’m more likely to write reusable content my team can deploy with just a few keystrokes.

It's super easy to set up. I know there's hardly any learning curve, really.

We use it in my business on a daily basis. There are so many situations you can use it for, whether it's email addresses for my entire team or web addresses that I have to share frequently.

And obviously, the best thing is since they set up the whole OpenAI integration, now you can have AI-created responses inline right wherever you're typing.

I'm a huge fan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was an API that allowed me to automate shortcut creation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use typedesk for writing pre-canned responses like customer support or emails, which has shortened my time. I like using quick commands such as the forward slash combined with the type of my choice, which makes it very fast to use. I think the interface is also simple and fairly intuitive to set up, so anyone can really do it. I find it valuable because it's easy to use without a lot of friction; I don't have to open a bunch of applications or set up a bunch of commands. I can simply create one shortcut for a paragraph response for each typical point I need to address, which significantly cuts down my time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the copy paste function can behave strange, meaning it'll type twice or not paste, which I'm not sure if it's something to do with the actual software or the text boxes that I'm trying to input into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

easy setup, i like the template system, predefined replies/texts/emails.

dynamic data is also great . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i dont see downsides of using typedesk, its optional, but very powerful when you know how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It saves me a lot of time. Instead of manually copy and pasting repetitive emails and then customizing each with names, etc., Typedesk makes it super easy for me to just either use shortcuts or double click on the template and use the various fill-in options with ease. These dynamic fill-ins are amazing. You won't know you need it until you've tried it!

The interface is also very intuitive and easy to use.

I work in customer support so Typedesk is a must-have! It's also affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately, it sometimes crashes for no reason. It's no big deal because I just restart and it doesn't really cause any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It works great for sending canned messages; I'm able to set variables to enter the recipient's name and other details. Also, I can set text for the morning or afternoon accordingly. Webhooks is great!... when a canned message is sent, you can have a register added to certain tool or send an email, etc... with the variables in the text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was a mobile app. It's in their roadmap, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For anyone using identical or somewhat similar messages/responses/communication on a regular basis (emails, slack, chat support, etc) - this is a GREAT tool. It allows you to craft the response you want, include dynamic fields so it leaves room for different situations, and saves you time typing, saves on typos, and also keeps your messaging/responses consistent across the board. Great to help align messaging across teams as well. Super easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of a Mobile App: While typedesk has apps for Windows, Mac, and all major browsers, it does not have a mobile app. This could limit its usefulness for those who primarily work on mobile devices. Upcoming Mobile App: While typedesk currently does not have a mobile app, the developer has announced that one is in the works. This upcoming feature could greatly enhance its usefulness for those who primarily work on mobile devices, making it a truly universal tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've been using Typedesk for a couple of years now and it has save an immense amount of time and effort. It's in use everyday in come shape or form.

Whether its the integrated plugin or the desktop app, everything is intuitive and easy to use and theres a constant floow of updates coming down the pipe.

Would recommend it to anyone! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dont like is that it doesnt write the responses for me....but with AI integration thats fast becoming a non-issue! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use once you set it up how you want to use. I like that I can easily add different variables, alternatives very quickly. It's great for repetitive things such as messages, typing in an email and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it will input things twice and I will have to go and delete. Have to restart perhaps once a week, the chrome extension could be a bit easier to use but overall satisfied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
