A menu-bar app for macOS

Your mouse had a good run.

Click something, and HushMouse shows the shortcut you could have pressed instead, right next to your cursor. Use it a few times on your own and the hint goes quiet.

Try it here: press ⌘ ⇧ or any key.

Every mouse click above gets its shortcut. That's the whole idea.

How it helps

It learns your Mac, so you can learn your keyboard.

No cheatsheet to study. HushMouse teaches the one shortcut you needed, at the moment you needed it.

Every menu shortcut, in every app

Click a menu item or a toolbar button and HushMouse reads its shortcut straight from the app. Zero setup.

Reads the hints apps already show

Many buttons already mention their shortcut in a title or tooltip. HushMouse picks it up, so apps like VS Code work out of the box.

Speaks keyboard-first tools

Built-in hints for the tools that replace the mouse for good.

Strict or Relaxed

Flip modes anytime with ⌃⌥⌘K

Ready-made packs

VS Code, Notion, Slack and Figma come ready to go. Import a pack a friend shared in one click.

Every shortcut, your way

Open the packs panel to see each app's shortcuts in plain words. Change anything with a click. No files, no JSON.

  • Switch a whole app on or off
  • Click a keycap, press new keys, and it's rebound
  • Turn off or delete a single shortcut
  • Hints you taught get a Yours tag
  • Share a pack with a friend, or reset it

Teach it anything, from anywhere

An app HushMouse doesn't know yet? Press ⌃⌥⌘T in any app and show it once.

Time saved

Watch the minutes come back.

Every shortcut you pick up is a trip to the mouse you don't make. HushMouse adds them up, so you can see the time you get back.

How we count this

Reaching for the mouse, pointing and coming back takes about 2.1 seconds. Pressing a shortcut takes about 0.5. Only shortcuts HushMouse taught you are counted. Because it's a fixed estimate, it never needs to track your mouse.

saved = taught shortcut presses × 1.6 s
