What is Type AI?
Type.ai is an AI-powered editor designed for long-form writing, helping users craft books, novels, essays, screenplays, reports, and other extended content. It features a modern word processor with deeply integrated AI tools that generate stunning drafts from ideas or outlines, perform deep edits with previewable changes, and polish text using inline commands. Trusted by over 200,000 writers, Type provides a complete writing experience including organization tools, offline mode, and multimodal exports.
Key features include generating full-length stories, AI chat for feedback and brainstorming, inline rewriting with brushes for grammar fixes or shortening, custom styles to match user voice, and support for embedding images, tables, and code. Users can import DOCX, PDFs, or URLs, edit up to 150,000-word documents, and export to PDF, DOCX, Markdown, HTML, or AI-narrated audio. Premium plans access top models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google with higher usage limits.
Type is ideal for novelists, authors, technical writers, marketers needing long-form copy, and teams requiring precise control over AI-assisted editing. It surpasses general chat tools like ChatGPT by offering a feature-rich editor for involved revision processes, maintaining creative control, and handling complex formatting without constant copy-pasting.
