Clap

Clap is an AI writing companion that runs as a Chrome extension. Instead of opening a separate app, you keep typing in whatever editor you already use and the extension offers suggestions inline. Accept one with Tab, or press any other key to discard it and keep going. The listing also describes compatibility with various text editors, context-aware continuity that follows the site you are on, and multi-language support, which is the part that matters most if you draft in a second language. Pricing is four dollars a month with a free trial, and the pitch is a distraction-free, seamless typing experience.

- Get inline suggestions while typing in a browser editor

- Keep suggestions aligned with the page and the surrounding text

- Draft in more than one language

- Accept or discard each suggestion with a single key

- People who do most of their writing in browser-based editors

- Non-native speakers drafting in a second language

- Writers who want help without leaving the current page

The price is four dollars a month after the free trial, so it is a small recurring cost rather than a one-off, and cancelling needs to be handled through the same account. The directory's last check could not confirm the site was reachable, so verify the site and the store listing before you install. Inline suggestions can also break your rhythm if you write in short bursts or work on technical copy, since the prompts arrive whether you want them or not, so check whether they can be paused. And like any suggestion engine, it predicts plausible continuations rather than what you meant, so everything still needs an editing pass before it goes out.
