Type a word.
Trigger an action.
ActiveWords transforms your keyboard into a powerful automation engine for Windows. Text snippets, auto-correct, app launching, and scripted workflows - all triggered by the words you type.
Powering productivity for teams and individuals worldwide
Three steps to effortless productivity
Define Your Words
Create short trigger words for any action - text snippets, app launches, web URLs, or multi-step scripts. Drag and drop or import from CSV to set up in seconds.
Type Anywhere
Just type your trigger word in any Windows application, including the desktop. ActiveWords watches silently in the background, ready to act the instant it recognizes your keyword.
Action Fires Instantly
Your word is replaced with the text snippet, app launches, URL opens, or your custom script runs. It happens so fast, it feels like magic.
