About Keboard

Keboard is a floating keyboard tool for macOS. Press your trigger key and a customizable keyboard interface appears on screen — bind apps and Shortcuts to keys, then launch or run them with a single tap.

What is Keboard?

Keboard is a native macOS utility that overlays a semi-transparent keyboard on your screen when you press a configurable trigger key. Every key on the overlay can be assigned to an app or a macOS Shortcut. Tap the key and the action fires instantly. Press the trigger key again or hit Escape to dismiss the overlay.

Keboard is designed for users who want to manage their frequent actions in one place and trigger them in a more direct way — without memorizing complex keyboard shortcuts or hunting through menus.

Features

  • Trigger Key to Open the Keyboard: Configure any key combination as your trigger. Press it from anywhere on your Mac and a floating keyboard appears instantly — ready for your next action.
  • Bind Apps — One Tap to Launch: Assign any installed app to any key. Tap the key and the app opens immediately. Perfect for apps you use often, or ones you can never find in your Dock.
  • Bind Shortcuts — One Tap to Run: Assign macOS Shortcuts to keys and trigger them with a single tap. Run automations, file operations, AI workflows, or any task you've built in the Shortcuts app.
  • Menu Bar App: Keboard runs silently in the menu bar with no Dock icon. Enable launch at login and it's always ready in the background.
  • Keyboard Themes & Animations: Choose from Glass, Dark, and other visual themes. Customize show/hide animations with multiple presets and a live preview.
