Key sections

Why Android keyboard is attractive

Android input methods can participate in text entry flows, which makes them attractive for X app reply drafting. The value is proximity: the user can request a draft while already focused on the composer.

  • The keyboard can reduce copy-paste between app and browser.
  • The reply still needs visible human review before posting.
  • The keyboard should not become an account automation surface.

What must be stable before launch

The keyboard should reuse server-side account and entitlement controls. Before native launch, TypeToSell should already trust the login/session model, daily quota checks, billing gates, rate limits, abuse handling, and admin revoke controls.

Privacy boundary

A keyboard-era device ledger should store only platform, app version, client type, session status, and last-seen timestamps. It should not store raw social posts, generated replies, private messages, profile URLs, or payment details.
