Lightning Assist is a cross-platform text expander for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Use one hotkey to insert templates, snippets, and canned replies wherever you type—in email, docs, chat, or code. Add AI: generate resources from a description, or rewrite, translate, and polish selected text in-place (AI Enhance and AI Command). Optional push-to-talk speech-to-text works in any desktop app. Teams and Company plans let you share resources. 14-day free trial, no credit card.
Features
- One-hotkey text expansion: paste full templates and snippets in any app (Gmail, Slack, Word, VS Code, terminal).
- AI Enhance: select text and get rewrite, translate, shorten, or formalize, then paste back.
- AI Command window: send clipboard content for translation or rewriting and paste the result.
- Generate resources from a natural-language description (e.g. “professional follow-up email”).
- Push-to-talk speech-to-text: hold a key to dictate, release to transcribe into the active app.
- Replacements: dynamic placeholders in snippets so you can fill in custom text when expanding.
- Teams and Company: share resource libraries and manage access across the organization.
- Works in any app: email, documents, chat, IDEs, browsers; no app-specific plugins required.
- 14-day free trial with full features; no credit card required.
Use Cases
- Email: Quick replies, signatures, follow-ups, and AI-polished drafts in Gmail, Outlook, etc.
- Support: Canned responses, FAQs, and templated replies in helpdesk and chat tools.
- Code & docs: Boilerplate, snippets, and comments in VS Code, Cursor, and other editors.
- Writing: Expand abbreviations, insert blocks, and use AI to rewrite or translate in place.
- Meetings & notes: Dictate with push-to-talk into notes, docs, or email.
- Teams: Shared templates and snippets so everyone uses the same wording and formats.

I'm Luminita, CEO of Lightning Assist. We’ve been building this for 3 years, and it’s finally here. Lightning Assist has one goal: help you type less and do more—whether that’s replying to customers, writing docs, coding, doing marketing, or just getting words on the page. What it does: Text expansion (we call them “resources”) — One hotkey turns a short trigger into a full template, email, reply, or code block. Works in any app. Push-to-talk voice-to-text — Hold the key, speak, release. Your words appear where you’re typing. No more switching apps to dictate. AI edits — Select text, hit a hotkey, and get rewrite, shorten, expand, translate, or improve—right in place. No copy-paste to a separate AI window. Teams & companies — Share resources with your team or your whole organization so everyone uses the same templates and replies. Dynamic resources — Use placeholders so one resource can adapt (e.g. different names, dates) instead of creating dozens of similar snippets. Privacy-first We don’t store what you say or type for matching. Speech is processed for transcription; only the final text can be stored, and you can turn that off in Settings. No “as you type” scanning—we use explicit hotkeys so you stay in control and avoid accidental triggers. Our motto: “Every second matters.” We built Lightning Assist for speed and consistency so you can focus on the work that actually matters. Download: https://www.lightning-assist.com Available on Windows 10/11, macOS, and Linux. We’re also growing a Discord community for users to share ideas, get help, and connect with the team. This is our first launch on Fazier—we’d love your feedback and to hear how you’d use it. Thanks, — Luminita [email protected] | lightning-assist.com
