Briskine vs TextExpander

Briskine is a text expansion tool for making and inserting reusable templates on websites and in web apps. Templates can use dynamic and custom variables, rich formatting, images, and links; they can also fill Subject, To, CC, and BCC email fields. The editor works with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera, while mobile browsers on Android and iOS are also supported. Templates can be shared and synced with a team, and insertion works on almost any website or web app. The free plan is for one person and includes 30 templates. Premium includes unlimited templates and team members. The listed starting price is $7/user/mo. Plans can be upgraded, downgraded, or canceled at any time, and yearly billing provides two months free. Creating a free account does not require a credit card. Briskine provides email support and lists discounts for teams of 30 or more, nonprofits, and educational institutions. The site identifies the company as Briskine SRL.

TextExpander turns short keystrokes into saved Snippets that expand across devices and apps. It supports macOS, Windows, Chrome, Linux through a Chrome extension, iPhone and iPad, and a web app. The Free plan lasts indefinitely without a credit card and allows five active Snippets; free users can swap one active Snippet every two weeks.

Pro costs $5.00 per month per user when billed annually, and Business costs $10.00 per month per user when billed annually; both include unlimited active Snippets and teams. Paid plans add dynamic content such as date math and JavaScript. Enterprise has custom pricing and can include SSO, SCIM, and customized reporting.
