The secret sauce

Trade Caps Lock for a superpower.

That four-key chord becomes two: hold Caps Lock, tap a letter. As easy as ⌘V - and a hundred times more powerful.

  • holdFires ⌃⌥⌘ - your whole command layer, one pinky.
  • tap ×2Plain Caps Lock, still there when you want it.

Almost nothing else binds ⌃⌥⌘, so your shortcuts never collide. New to hyper keys? →

How it works

From by-hand to one keystroke.

Every repetitive task is a choice: pay for it with your time, every time - or spend one minute turning it into a command.

Before
0:12

The old way, every time

Select the text, up to the toolbar, open the palette, hunt for red… and again tomorrow, and the day after, forever.

Set it up once
one minute

Show it the steps, once

Highlight, press ⌥ /, type "text color red", hit enter. That's the whole setup.

Pro tip: ⌥ / opens Google Docs' menu search - all kinds of shortcuts hide in there.

Ever after
0:02

One keystroke, forever

Press ⌃⌥⌘R and it replays those steps itself, in two seconds. Or say it out loud when your hands are full.

One hold away

Your keyboard remembers for you.

Every shortcut you bind is kept in the cheat sheet. Hold the Hyper key and it appears - showing every automation bound for the app or site you're in, right on its keys.

The Super Shortcuts workflow editor for the Make Text Red command - its ⌃⌥⌘R trigger, “make text red” voice phrase, Google Docs context, and the step-by-step action chain.

Who it's for

Whatever you repeat, it can run.

A few of the workflows each of these people can build in minutes:

D
For developers

Copilot writes the code. The rest of your day is PR links, test runs, and repo hopping - bind those to the hyper key and stop hunting menus.

hyper key plus L: copy the PR link as markdownhyper key plus T: run tests in the terminal
A
For accountants

Your close week is a hundred tiny repeats: you paste into sheets, send the same status replies, open the same three tools per client.

hyper key plus V: paste, clean & format - one chordhyper key plus K: fire the "docs received" reply
E
For entrepreneurs

You context-switch for a living. One keystroke opens the whole mode - terminal, calendar, the three tabs - laid out where you want them.

hyper key plus 1: the morning ritual, one presshyper key plus N: log a note without switching apps

Real, ordinary workflows you can assemble in minutes from the same building blocks above.

What's inside

Powerful features, one key away.

⌃⌥⌘LCopy PR link

Same key, 1 app so far - tap the tabs

Context-aware

One key means something different in each app and site. No collisions, nothing to memorize.

Cheat sheet

Forget a binding? Hold the hyper key and every command lights up on your keyboard. Never memorize again.

Private by design

Your workflows never leave your Mac.

Not "synced for convenience." Not "anonymized." Your automations and your voice are processed on your Mac and stay there. Offline? They still run.

Private by design. The only data we collect is opt-in product telemetry - never your workflows or voice. It asks for the standard macOS automation permissions, explains each before you grant it, and you can revoke anytime. How permissions work →

Super Shortcuts coexists happily with the launchers and macro tools - this is just where it's different.

Questions

Questions, answered.

Privacy, permissions, pricing, and how it stacks up. Still stuck? Read the docs →

Will it clash with shortcuts I already use?

No. Commands fire on the hyper key (⌃⌥⌘ plus a letter), a combo almost no app binds. And each one is scoped to a context, so the same chord can mean different things in different apps - or even on different websites, like github.com versus a Google Doc - without ever colliding.

Is my data private? Does voice go to the cloud?

Everything runs on your Mac. Voice is transcribed on-device and never sent anywhere, and routine runs stay local. Every command is a workflow you can open, read, and edit, so there's no black box.

What macOS permissions does it need?

The standard automation permissions (Accessibility, and Automation for some actions) so it can drive your apps. We explain each one before you grant it, and you can revoke them anytime in System Settings.

How is it different from Raycast, Keyboard Maestro, or Apple Shortcuts?

Raycast and Alfred are launchers you summon; Super Shortcuts fires in place, scoped to where you are. Keyboard Maestro is a deep macro engine; this is the fast, memorable layer on top, with no macro mental model. Apple Shortcuts is broad but detached from your live context. It coexists happily if you already run your own hyper key.

Why not just ask an AI agent to do it?

AI agents are great for one-off, open-ended work. Super Shortcuts is for the things you do twenty times a day: it runs the exact steps you chose, the same way every time, in a couple of seconds - offline, with no tokens, no waiting, and no improvising with your data.

Do I have to build everything from scratch?

No. Install a ready-made command from the starter library (Google Docs, GitHub, VS Code, Meetings, Global), run it, then make it yours.

How do I know it's actually saving me time?

The app keeps score. Every run is counted, and the Home dashboard shows time saved this week, your streak, and your top commands - your number, not our marketing.

Do I need an account, and what does it cost?

No account. Super Shortcuts is free to use for up to 20 workflows, with every action and a starter template library. Pro is a one-time purchase - $39 as a launch price, going to $49 after launch - that unlocks unlimited workflows, voice control, the Element Inspector, and the full template library. Every new install also gets a 14-day Pro trial, no card required.

Is it a subscription?

No. Pro is a one-time purchase - pay once, it's yours, and updates are included for life. (We may offer optional paid add-ons down the road, but the app you buy today stays a one-time purchase.)

What if it's not for me?

There's a 30-day money-back guarantee. If Super Shortcuts Pro isn't for you, email [email protected] within 30 days and we'll refund you in full.

Do updates cost extra?

No. Updates are free for the life of the app and install themselves - Super Shortcuts checks for new versions and updates in place, so you're always current.

What Mac do I need?

macOS 12 (Monterey) or later, on Apple Silicon or Intel. The download is about 16 MB.

Stop paying the by-hand tax.
