Handwritten notes, PDF markup, and AI study tools on one canvas
Low-latency ink with palm rejection, cross-out to erase, and handwriting-to-text conversion keeps writing close to pen on paper.
Import contracts, papers, or textbooks and mark them up by hand, with searchable annotations and clean exports.
Search across typed text, handwriting, and sketches, and turn notes into summaries, mind maps, or structured plans.
Work together in shared notebooks, documents, and whiteboards simultaneously, without version conflicts or file ping-pong.
AI autocomplete for your entire Mac, running locally and never sending your writing to a server
Faint ghost text completes the word or sentence you are typing right at the cursor. Tab accepts the entire suggestion, the right arrow takes just the next word, and Esc dismisses it so you stay in control.
The model runs on your Mac rather than in the cloud. Typeahead never sends your writing to a server and keeps working offline after setup, which makes it suitable for work email and sensitive documents.
It reads what is on screen and what you copied to the clipboard, so replies fit the thread you are actually answering rather than being generic filler.
Set a voice per app, professional in Mail and friendly in Messages, choose from seven color-blind-safe highlight shades, and tune suggestion timing to instant, balanced or only when you pause.
