✦ v2.1.1 · Free & open source
Dripwriter is a free browser extension that pastes your text into a Google Doc one believable keystroke at a time — with adjustable speed, keyboard-neighbor typos that auto-correct, false-start words, and short breaks.
What it does
Built to read like a human, not a script.
Six knobs you actually want, none of the ones you don't. Set it once; the popup remembers.
Adjustable cadence
Dial typing speed from 20 to 150 WPM with a configurable variance band, so the rhythm never feels mechanical.
Neighbor-key typos
The agent slips on adjacent keys at a rate you set, then visibly backspaces and corrects them just like a tired writer would.
False starts
Occasionally types a wrong nearby word, pauses, and deletes it — the kind of micro-detour real drafting produces.
Natural breaks
Configurable short pauses at sentence boundaries keep long pastes from looking like one uninterrupted burst.
Diagnostics mode
Run a one-shot probe to see which typing event paths your Google Docs build accepts — handy when Docs ships changes.
Local & private
All settings live in your browser's local storage. No accounts, no telemetry, no servers.

FAQ
Questions about Dripwriter, answered.
Free, cross-browser, and built for Google Docs.
What is Dripwriter?+
Dripwriter is a free, open-source browser extension that types pasted text into Google Docs with adjustable speed, keyboard-neighbor typos that auto-correct, occasional false-start words, and configurable short breaks. The result reads like a person typing live, not a script pasting in one shot.
Is Dripwriter free?+
Yes — Dripwriter is free for all noncommercial use under the Dripwriter Origin License, and the source is open on GitHub. Commercial use requires a separate license; open an issue at github.com/alexey-max-fedorov/dripwriter-origin/issues.
Which browsers does Dripwriter support?+
Dripwriter works in Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox. The build pipeline ships both Chrome MV3 and Firefox MV3 packages, and extension.dripwriter.org routes you to the right store for your browser.
Can I use Dripwriter on a school or work network?+
Dripwriter runs entirely inside your browser with no external servers to call and no telemetry, so there is nothing for a network filter to block once the extension is installed. If your browser can open the extension store and your Google Doc, Dripwriter works.
Does Dripwriter work with AI like Claude?+
Yes. With API mode enabled, Dripwriter exposes a window._dripwriter API on Google Docs tabs so an AI agent such as Claude can drive the typing engine. See the setup guide at /ai.
Does Dripwriter work in Microsoft Word?+
Not today. Dripwriter is built specifically for Google Docs, where its humanized typing engine is tuned to the Docs editor. Microsoft Word support is not currently available.
