Autocomplete shouldn't be a subscription
WriteAmp predicts your next few words in every Mac app, accepts them with Tab, and runs entirely on your Mac. You buy it once for $29. There's no monthly plan, because there's nothing to meter.

Somewhere, finishing your own sentence became a recurring bill
A menu-bar utility is not a streaming service. Nothing about “the next few words” needs a billing relationship.
A utility on a leash
Cancel the plan and a tool you use every day stops working on a Tuesday — even though it's only ever used the Mac in front of you.
Free until you write
The free tier is measured in words. You find out where the wall is mid-paragraph, on a day you happened to be busy.
You already paid for the hardware
The Mac that runs the suggestion is yours. Being charged monthly for it to keep running is the part that never sat right.
A subscription makes sense when something costs money every time you use it. A model running on your own Mac is not that. It's a utility — so it should behave like one.
You don't rent your keyboard shortcuts.
One payment. Then it's out of your way.
WriteAmp is a one-time purchase because the inference happens on your Mac — there is no per-use server bill to pass on. So there's no reason to price it like there is one.
One price, yours to keep
$29 once. Unlimited suggestions, up to three Macs, lifetime use. Nothing renews, and there's no plan to outgrow.
No daily word cap
Nothing counts how much you write. The trial is fully featured for 30 days, and after it you unlock the app — you don't graduate to a metered tier.
Nothing to meter, because nothing leaves the Mac
Suggestions are generated locally on Apple Silicon. No account, no cloud inference, no usage dashboard quietly deciding what you're worth per month.
A tool that's allowed to disappear
No billing portal, no “manage subscription,” no retention flow on the way out. It sits in your menu bar and does its job.

How it works
1. Install once
Drag to Applications, allow Accessibility, pick a local model tier. No account to create.
2. Type like you always do
The next few words appear at your cursor — light gray inline in native apps, a blue capsule in web fields.
3. Press Tab, or don't
Tab accepts the suggestion. Keep typing and it disappears. That's the whole interaction, for the next year and the one after.
The price math, in the open
No plan comparison table to decode. One number, and the reason it's one number.
Subscription autocomplete apps commonly bill $6–9 a month, with free tiers capped around 100 completed words a day. One year of that costs more than two WriteAmp licenses. WriteAmp is $29 once, with unlimited suggestions and no cap. Competitor prices are public list prices and change — we link them from the comparison page so you can check.
