Custom keyboard speed,
built directly into macOS
MacKey unlocks the full power of your MacBook Air function row with zero input latency.
Native Low-Level Kernel Interception
MacKey intercepts F1–F12 keys at the native CoreGraphics event layer with sub-millisecond precision. Zero typing lag, zero frame drops, and zero battery impact.
Logi Options+ Style Visual Studio
Click any key on the visual MacBook keyboard to assign apps, window snapping, or terminal commands. No complicated config files or terminal hacking required.
Don’t settle for locked keys,
make your function row work for you
MacBook Air keyboards have 12 valuable physical keys sitting mostly idle. MacKey lets you remap every key to actions that save minutes on every task.
Sub-Millisecond CGEventTap
Built directly on low-level CoreGraphics hooks for instant keystroke interception without lag.
Interactive Visual Studio
Click any key on your visual MacBook Air keyboard to assign actions from a categorized drawer.
Context-Aware Profiles
Your top row adapts to whatever software is in focus: Xcode, Figma, Terminal, or Safari.
100% On-Device Privacy
Only listens to chosen function keys (F1–F12). Standard typing is never touched or recorded.
Xcode, Terminal & Local Servers
Map F1 to open your project terminal, F2 to trigger builds, F3 to view git diffs, and F4 to restart local Docker containers with zero typing friction.
💡 Hold Fn anytime for factory brightness/media
Accelerate your developer loop from single keypresses
Switches context automatically when the frontmost window changes, or pin your favorite keymap globally.
Transform locked keys into superpowers
See how MacKey brings the simplicity of Logi Options+ directly to your built-in MacBook Air keyboard.
Keys F1 to F12 are locked to basic screen brightness and media controls you rarely touch.
Logitech software only customizes external mice and keyboards, leaving built-in keys rigid.
Switching focus, opening Terminal, and typing `npm run dev` or `git status` repeatedly.
Legacy utilities require writing cryptic JSON/XML configuration blocks just to map one key.
Bulky background daemon utilities introduce perceptible lag and dropped keystrokes.
Interactive visual keyboard layout to remap any function key to apps, scripts, or shortcuts.
Direct native CoreGraphics hooks execute key actions with sub-millisecond real-time speed.
Run custom shell scripts, Docker commands, or git workflows straight from a single keypress.
Tile windows 50% left, 50% right, or clean maximize without separate third-party apps.
Hold Fn anytime to access original Apple brightness and volume controls seamlessly.
Select a Function Key
Click any key from F1 through F12 on the visual MacBook Air keyboard map.
Pick Your Action
Choose from the categorized drawer: launch apps, snap windows, mute mic, or run shell scripts.
Work with Zero Latency
Press the key on your MacBook keyboard for instant sub-millisecond execution.
Built for people who do real work on Mac
From engineers and designers to marketers and writers, see how professionals eliminate setup friction every single day.
“Xcode build and terminal triggers right on F1 and F2 with zero lag.”
I've always wanted Logi Options+ for my actual MacBook Air keyboard. MacKey lets me remap F1 to build Xcode, F2 to toggle Terminal, and F3 to run tests. Zero input latency and it looks like a first-party Apple utility.
“So much simpler and cleaner than clunky legacy remapping utilities.”
Setting up custom key bindings in Karabiner was always intimidating and felt clunky. MacKey gave me an intuitive visual keyboard where I just clicked F5 and picked 'Snap Window Left'. It took 30 seconds to configure.
“Turned my idle function row into a dedicated design macro pad.”
The MacBook Air keyboard is my favorite laptop keyboard in the world, but the function row was mostly useless to me. Now F1 is my Figma eyedropper macro, F2 creates components, and F3 exports screens. Game changer.
“Physical function keys triggering bash scripts in sub-milliseconds.”
The shell script integration is brilliant. I bound F10 to run a script that checks Kubernetes pods and F11 to restart my local Docker stack. Having physical function keys execute shell commands with zero delay is incredible.
“100% on-device privacy with zero keystroke recording.”
Privacy was my number one concern when granting Accessibility permissions. Seeing that MacKey operates 100% on-device with zero network requests or analytics gave me complete confidence. It's fast, private, and essential.
