FastFox vs InsertKit

FastFox is a text expander for inserting frequently used phrases, paragraphs, documents, and images while you work. You can create unlimited shortcuts, with no stated limit on expanded text length, and save expansions as plain text or formatted rich text. A shortcut can insert an image such as a company logo. FastFox can learn phrases you type often and suggest them as you type. It also lets you combine Ctrl, Alt, and Shift commands into macros that work in programs. The software runs in the background and is intended for use across programs, including word processors and email; Microsoft Word and Outlook are named examples. Businesses can use a shared shortcut file on a network to standardize stock text. FastFox supports Windows and macOS, offers advanced expansion rules, and has no mobile support. A free trial is available, but the opened product page does not state its duration. Home and business licenses are listed, with prices not provided.
