# KeyboardCount

> A native macOS menu bar app that tracks your keystrokes, typing speed, and productivity patterns. All data stays on your Mac — no cloud, no accounts, no network requests.

KeyboardCount lives in the macOS menu bar and counts every keystroke you type, in real time. It turns that into typing speed (WPM), per-app breakdowns, hourly activity charts, a keyboard heatmap, and a GitHub-style activity history. It is a one-time purchase with no subscription, and it never sends your data anywhere.

## Key Facts

- Platform: macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later, native Swift menu bar app
- Price: $9.99 one-time purchase, free updates forever
- Privacy: all data is stored locally on the Mac; the app makes zero network requests and has no cloud sync, analytics, or telemetry
- What it records: keystroke counts and timing only — never the characters or content you type
- Distribution: direct download (not on the Mac App Store, because App Store sandboxing blocks system-wide keyboard monitoring)
- Delivery: after Stripe checkout, a download link is emailed instantly; the link is valid for 7 days and up to 5 downloads, and can be re-sent for free
