The makers of Breevy themselves call their program one text expander.

The aim of the program is to help you type faster and more accurately by automatically completing long words and abbreviations. We recently came across this function in a new version of Outlook, but Breevy already uses this trick in a smarter and more advanced way.
The nice thing about Breevy is that it basically adds support to all Windows programs you type in. To avoid having to reset your own lists on multiple computers, Breevy offers support for synchronizing them. The app uses Dropbox for this.
The use of abbreviations is not limited to typed text. You can also use abbreviations to start programs in Windows. For example, type ff to start Firefox or md to open the Documents folder. The app can also automatically correct common typos (mainly English). For example, the software has a built-in list of 6500 AutoCorrect improvements.
Creating your own lists is done clearly: via a folder structure you determine per item which abbreviations may be used and which corrections should be active.
The software is not free, but you can try it for two weeks. After this you pay approximately 33 euros.
