Keyviz

Keyviz is a free and open-source tool that visualizes your keypresses and mouse actions in real-time. Let your audience know what handy shortcuts you're pressing during tutorials, presentations, collaborations, or whenever you need.

⌨️ Keypress & 🖱️ Mouse Actions

Along with normal keys, you can also visualize mouse actions like Cmd + Click, Alt + Drag, etc.

Display mouse clicks and scroll wheel movements alongside your cursor.

⚙️ Full Customization

Don't settle for defaults. Every aspect of the visualization is under your control:

• Styling: Change colors (modifier vs. regular keys), size, layout, border, and background.
• Filtering: Control which keys are shown using hotkey or custom filters.
• History: Keep a visual trail of your recent inputs.
• Position: Move the visualization to any part of your screen.
• Animations: Customize how inputs appear and disappear with preset entry and exit animations.
