WHY MAKRO?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Video

The text expander that respects your privacy. Makro gives you more for free than competitors charge for.

How it works: Type a short trigger word (like "sig") and Makro instantly replaces it with the full text you defined (like your complete email signature). Works in any text field on any website.

Why Makro?

• Unlimited macros on the free tier - no 20-snippet cap, no paywall to start.
• Zero-knowledge encryption - your macros are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before they leave your device. Our servers never receive your encryption keys and cannot read your content. No other text expander offers this.
• No account required - install and start expanding immediately. No email, no sign-up.
• Free local AI - use Ollama for AI-powered text rewriting without sending a single byte to the cloud.
• Switch easily - import directly from TextExpander, Espanso, aText, AutoHotkey, PhraseExpress, Alfred, Typinator, ProKeys, Text Blaze, Auto Text Expander, and Beeftext.

Key Features

• Text Expansion - Create hotwords that expand into full text snippets. Works in plain text fields, rich text editors, and contenteditable elements. Optional preview before insertion.
• 25+ Dynamic Placeholders - Insert today's date, clipboard content, selected text, prompted input, and more. Pro unlocks advanced placeholders: math calculations, counters, regex find/replace, nested macros, and custom date formatting.
• Category Organization - Organize macros into categories and subcategories. Drag, move, rename, and restructure as your library grows.
• Markdown Editor - Write macro bodies in Markdown with a full formatting toolbar: bold, italic, headings, lists, code blocks, tables, images, and live preview.
• Browser Spell Check - Native browser spell checking in the macro editor. Catches typos as you type, with right-click suggestions. Runs entirely in your browser - text never leaves your device.
• Keyboard Shortcuts - Assign custom key combinations to any macro for instant expansion without typing a hotword.
• Quick Search (Ctrl+Shift+Space) - Find and insert any macro from a global search popup without opening the extension.
• Clipboard History - Automatically saves recent clipboard entries for quick access. Password-like entries can be auto-excluded. Auto-clear wipes sensitive entries after a configurable delay.
• Right-Click Context Menu - Access your macros from any page via the right-click menu, organized by category and folder structure.
• Macro Favorites & Tags - Star important macros and add tags for quick filtering and organization.
• Usage Statistics - Track per-macro usage with charts, heatmaps, usage insights, and category breakdowns.
• Import & Export - Back up your macros as JSON files. Import from TextExpander, Espanso, aText, AutoHotkey, PhraseExpress, Alfred, Typinator, ProKeys, Text Blaze, Auto Text Expander, and Beeftext.
• Bulk Operations - Select, move, or delete multiple macros at once.
• Dark, Light & Auto Themes - Choose dark or light mode, or let it follow your system preference automatically.
• Localization - Available in English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), and Korean.

Privacy First - Not Just a Slogan

Other text expanders store your snippets in plaintext on their servers. Makro is different:

• Free tier: all data stays on your device, encrypted at rest. No ads, no third-party analytics.
• Cloud sync uses zero-knowledge encryption (AES-256-GCM) - our servers never receive your encryption keys and cannot read your macros. Only devices with your key can decrypt them.
• Local AI option available (Ollama) - get AI features without sending anything to the cloud.
• Minimal telemetry - on first install, we record your extension version, platform, and locale (no IP or identity). We count anonymous weekly active users (no personal data). If you uninstall, an optional anonymous feedback form helps us improve - no email or identity collected.
