Three ways to insert text

1. Type a trigger

/+s+h+i+p+Space

Type a short trigger such as /hi and confirm: it turns into your text right where the cursor is. No window pops up.

2. A hotkey per snippet

Ctrl+Alt+1

Give a snippet its own hotkey such as Ctrl+Alt+1. Press it anywhere and the text is typed at the cursor.

3. Pick from a small list

Ctrl+Shift+Space

Press Ctrl+Shift+Space (or click the tray icon) to open a small list near your cursor. Search or pick one and it is typed into the window you were using.

You can mix all three. One phrase can have both a shortcut word and a hotkey.

Every language

Korean, English, Japanese, Arabic and more are inserted exactly as saved, whatever input method you use. This site is also available in many languages.

Works in every window

Messengers, email, browsers and document editors: anywhere you can type, your phrase goes in.

Sync across your PCs

With Pro, PCs linked to your account keep the same phrases automatically. Edit a phrase on one PC and use it right away on another.

How it works

Pine Shortcut is a program for Windows (a macOS version is coming soon) that replaces text you type again and again, such as greetings, notices, addresses and email signatures, with one short shortcut. Install it, sign in, and register a phrase once. After that, typing the shortcut and pressing the confirm key in any program enters the same sentence accurately. No typos, and no digging through old messages to copy from. The prefix character before a shortcut can also be changed to whatever you like.

Phrases can be sorted into folders and imported or exported as files. Group them by purpose, such as customer support, sales, study or translation notes, and you will find them quickly. Give a phrase its own hotkey to insert it with a single key press, or open the pick window and search when you cannot remember which phrase you need.

Sign in on this website to edit your phrases on the web. With Pro, every linked PC is updated automatically. The free plan has no ads and includes up to 5 snippets on 1 PC. Pro is $9.99 per year for unlimited snippets, account sync and multiple devices, and Multi lowers the price per PC as you buy more seats. The text you type is never sent to our server; we store only what is needed for your account and phrase sync.

Frequently asked questions

Is what I type sent to a server?

No. Shortcut detection runs entirely on your PC and the text you type is never sent. The server stores only your account email and the phrases you register, for syncing.

Which programs does it work in?

It works in most Windows programs where you can type. For programs run as administrator, run Pine Shortcut with the same permission.

Can I keep using it for free?

Yes. The free plan has no ads and works on one PC with up to 5 snippets. Choose Pro for unlimited snippets, sync and multiple devices.

What happens to my phrases when I change PCs?

Install it on the new PC and link the same account; your phrases come down as they were. You can unlink the old PC from your account page.

Can I use it on a phone?

Right now it is for Windows PCs only; a macOS version is coming soon. On a phone you can sign in to this website to view and edit your phrases.

Do I lose my phrases if I cancel?

No. Your phrases stay and you return to the free plan. You can export all phrases to a file from the account page; deleting the account erases all data.

Can I change the / before a shortcut?

Yes. On your account page choose one of /, ;, , // or .., type up to 3 characters of your own, or use no prefix at all. You can also set a different prefix for each phrase.
