A lot of possibility.

From your first hello to your hundredth follow-up, turn the things you type on repeat into things you type once.

SHORTCUT EXPANSION

A few characters.
Your best work.

Expand a shortcut into a beautifully formatted signature, a detailed reply, or an entire invoice. Make it yours with the all-new rich text editor.

FIELDS

Fill in the blanks.
Not the whole thing.

Mark the details that change, like a name, a plan, or a date. Expand the shortcut, and SimpleFill asks for them right inside your message.

  • Text
  • Textarea
  • Dropdown
  • Multi-select
  • Date

Change a blank, then press Insert.

SMART FIELDS

Already knows
where you are.

The page title, its link, today’s date. With add-ons for LinkedIn, HubSpot, GitHub, and more, even the name on a profile or the issue you’re on. Or just type ;url on any page.

TRANSFORMS

Exactly the
right shape.

Title-case a name, turn a heading into a tidy slug, or trim it to fit. Chain a few, and SimpleFill runs them in order.

  1. 1SlugifyCreates a lowercase URL-friendly slug.
  2. 2TruncateCuts text down to 14 characters.

Loved the demo today! Could you send me the deck and your email?

Right-click in the reply, then choose from SimpleFill.

EMOJI SHORTCODES

Words are wonderful.
Sometimes 🎉 says it better.

Type a colon and a few letters, and the perfect emoji is right there.
Just like in Slack and GitHub. Now everywhere you write.

A chat demo. Typing a colon and a few letters, such as :tad, opens SimpleFill’s emoji suggestions. Picking one with the arrow keys and Enter turns the shortcode into the emoji, like 🎉. A shortcode typed in full, like :heart:, turns into ❤️ right away. Focus the message field to try it yourself.

Every shortcode you know.

More than 1,800 emoji, from :+1: to :zap:. The codes you use in Slack and GitHub feel right at home.

Search by feeling.

Can’t remember the name? :thanks finds 🙏 and :party finds 🥳.

Close the colon.

Know it by heart? Type :tada: in full, and it turns into 🎉 instantly.

AI, WITHOUT THE DETOUR

Stay in your flow.
Let AI do its thing.

Fix a message, translate a reply, or boil long notes down to the gist.
Right where you’re writing. No copying, no tab hopping, no pasting back.

In Slack, a message with six mistakes. Typing ;fix and a space runs Fix Grammar, which fixes the message in place. Before: “Hey team, quick update: the new onboarding flow is live in staging! Their are still a few small bugs were fixing, but its looking realy good. Thank’s everyone for you’re hard work 🙌” After: “Hey team, quick update: the new onboarding flow is live in staging! There are still a few small bugs we’re fixing, but it’s looking really good. Thanks, everyone, for your hard work 🙌”

Three ways in.

Type a shortcut, right-click, or search with Quick Access. Whatever feels natural, your AI actions are never far away.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN

Your data.
Still your business.

Everything you save in SimpleFill stays in your browser.
We don’t store your extension data on our servers.1

Our approach to privacy

1 When you use a cloud AI model, only the content used by your AI action is sent to that provider. With a local model, none of that content is sent to the cloud. Extension settings may sync through your browser. The team plans and SimpleFill AI, coming soon, are optional, and use our servers only for what you share or send.

What’s new in SimpleFill 4?

A completely redesigned workspace, shortcut expansion, a rich text editor, reusable Fields, context-aware Smart Fields, Transforms, Quick Access, AI Actions, one-click form filling, and a template marketplace. It’s a whole new way to make your browser work for you.

Where does SimpleFill work?

SimpleFill is available for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari. It works across everyday websites including Gmail, HubSpot, LinkedIn, and even Google Docs. Chromium browsers like Brave and Vivaldi can use the Chrome extension.

Do I need an AI subscription?

No. SimpleFill works with your own API key for a cloud provider, or with a model running on your computer. Cloud API usage is billed separately by your provider; a subscription to an AI chat app usually does not include API usage. SimpleFill AI, an add-on coming soon, will let you skip the API key. Text expansion and form filling do not need AI.

Does my data stay private?

Yes. Everything you save in SimpleFill stays in your browser, and we don’t store your extension data on our servers. When you run an AI action with a cloud model, the content used by that action is sent to your chosen provider. With a local model, that content stays on your device. Extension settings may sync through your browser. The team plans and SimpleFill AI, coming soon, are optional: only what you share with your team, or send to SimpleFill AI, goes through our servers.

Is SimpleFill a subscription?

Not unless you want one. Standard and Pro are one-time purchases. Start with the Free plan, then choose a larger plan when you need it. Team, Enterprise, and the SimpleFill AI add-on, all coming soon, are subscriptions. Safari is purchased separately through the Mac App Store. Paid marketplace templates and cloud AI usage are separate purchases.

Can I sell my own templates?

Creator publishing is planned for the marketplace. For now, you can browse and install ready-to-use templates, including free email signatures, customer support replies, and paid invoice templates.
