About yDirect - Snippet Manager for AI Prompts, Canned Replies & Text Templates
Stop retyping the same text. yDirect keeps your AI prompts, canned replies, email templates and other reusable text in Chrome's side panel, so you can find and copy any of it without leaving the page you are on.
WHAT PEOPLE SAVE IN YDIRECT
- AI prompts you reuse in chat assistants and writing tools.
- Canned replies for support, sales, recruiting and customer messages.
- Email templates, bios, addresses, links, checklists and code snippets.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Create a free yDirect account with Google or with an email and password.
2. Save a snippet. Group related snippets in folders, like Prompts or Sales replies.
3. Press Alt+S (Option+S on a Mac) on any page, search, and copy with one click. Paste where you need it.
Alt+C (Option+C on a Mac) copies the snippet you used last. You can change both shortcuts at chrome://extensions/shortcuts, and yDirect's About page shows the ones you have.
WHAT YOU GET
- Folder and list views with search and sorting.
- One-click copy, with copy counts and last-used times.
- Your library on every computer where you sign in to yDirect.
- Optional cloud backup that keeps the latest and the previous copy, daily, weekly or monthly.
- Import and export as JSON or Excel, plus passphrase-encrypted JSON exports.
- Share folders or snippets with other yDirect users, with roles that control who can edit.
- Optional masking that hides snippet text while you share your screen.
- Light and dark themes.
YOUR ACCOUNT AND YOUR DATA
yDirect is free. A free yDirect account is required: it keeps your library synced and recoverable, and lets you share with other people. yDirect does not read the pages you visit, does not collect your browsing history, and does not sell your data or use it for advertising.
yDirect is not a password manager, and masking is not encryption. Keep passwords, real API keys, recovery codes and card numbers in a dedicated password manager.
WHAT'S NEW IN 1.3.4
- Keeps your snippets usable when yDirect's cloud is unavailable, with plain explanations instead of technical errors.
- Rate & feedback in the menu: rate yDirect here, or send a private problem report or idea.
- Snippet text is visible by default. Masking is still one click away.
- A one-time offer to turn on weekly backups once your library grows.
- Lighter background sync that checks for changes before downloading.
- The About page shows your keyboard shortcuts, written for your computer (Option+S on a Mac).
