A text expander for every site
Save the replies, signatures and snippets you type again and again. Type a short shortcut in any text box on any site, and Toolbox puts the whole text in.
Blanks to fill in
Add blanks to fill in as you insert, automatic dates and the current page's link, so one template fits every reply.
Organized and synced
Keep templates in folders with search, sort and bulk actions. They sync to every browser you sign in to.
Easy to switch
Import your snippets from Text Blaze or TextExpander with their shortcuts and folders, and back everything up as JSON.

Is the Toolbox text expander free?
Yes. It works on the free plan with a few limits, and you sign in with Google or your email, with no card. A number of templates are free; fill-in templates and an unlimited library come with Premium. One subscription unlocks every Toolbox tool; see the pricing page for what each plan includes.
Can I import my snippets from Text Blaze or TextExpander?
Yes. Toolbox imports their export files with your shortcuts and folders, and shows you what comes over before anything is added.
Do my templates sync between computers?
Yes. Templates are kept in your account, so every browser you sign in to has them.
