Why GhostSpell
What makes this ghost useful?
Always there, like a ghost
Ready when you need help, invisible when you don’t.
Light on your PC
It stays small and quiet instead of eating your system resources.
No ads. No subscription.
Totally free and open source. No paywall nonsense.
No malware. No shady catch.
Just a clean tool that exists to help people write better.
Fast and non-interruptive
It helps without breaking your flow or nagging you every few seconds.
Configurable
Change the prompt, create your own style, adjust tone, translate to any language, or clean up a rough AI prompt before you send it.
Better prompts, better AI results
GhostSpell can clean up a rough prompt before you send it, which can save tokens and help your AI give you a clearer answer.
Made for clearer interaction
Useful for dyslexia, spelling trouble, non-native English writing, and making cleaner messages for both people and machines.
Open source, built to help
GhostSpell is a simple open source project made with love. Anyone can inspect the code, validate that there is no hidden telemetry or sneaky behavior, and see exactly how it works. View the GitHub project.
Who is this for?
Developers reviewing PRs or writing updates in English.
Project managers sending Slack messages to international teams.
Students writing essays or applications in a second language.
AI users who want cleaner prompts and better answers.
What’s the catch? Nothing.
GhostSpell exists because writing is hard for a lot of people, and help should not be locked behind subscriptions, ads, or bloated software.
It is built to be quiet, practical, and kind — especially for people who struggle with spelling, dyslexia, writing in English as a second language, or cleaning up prompts before sending them to AI.
Works with your AI
Choose your AI
Ghost-AI (default)
Ollama / local
OpenAI
Anthropic
DeepSeek
GeminiFour simple options: Ghost-AI, Ollama, login, or API keys.
Ghost-AI (default)
GhostSpell includes Ghost-AI out of the box. It handles around 70–80% of common writing fixes for free, with no extra setup, and is the easiest place to start.
Ollama (local)
Want a more private local setup on your own machine? Use Ollama. It stays local and free, while giving you more flexibility over which model you run.
OAuth / account login
Prefer a smoother cloud setup? Sign in with a supported provider account and connect without manually juggling raw keys.
API keys
Use API keys for stronger models, faster responses, or more advanced setups. Paid cloud models usually give better results and speed when you want more than the free default.
Start with Ghost-AI for the easiest free setup. Use Ollama for local control, or cloud models for more speed and stronger results.
Coming to mobile.
GhostSpell is planned for iOS and Android too. If you want updates, star the project on GitHub and watch the releases — that is the easiest way to follow progress for now.
