In their own words

aText

aText replaces abbreviations you define with frequently used phrases in applications, helping speed up repeated typing on Windows and macOS. Snippets can insert formatted text, images, and attachments into applications such as Word, Mail, Outlook, Pages, and Gmail. It can capitalize new sentences and correct double capitals. Advanced snippets can use date and time scripts, editable fields, keystrokes, scripting, and mouse scripts; built-in options cover misspelling correction, HTML and JavaScript coding, and emojis. Data can sync between computers through OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud Drive, or a shared network folder, including across Windows and macOS. The maker describes collaboration in a multi-user environment and support for virtual machines and remote desktop clients. Its privacy policy says the app monitors keystrokes globally to expand abbreviations, but does not collect, save, or transmit keystrokes typed in other applications or transmit user-created data. A 21-day trial is available, and a free plan is listed. Personal One year costs $4.99 a year for one user on three computers and expires without automatic charge. Other listed options include lifetime and business licenses, with terms and limits varying by plan.
