Dune

What happens when you're in a split-screen setup — say VS Code on the left and Zoom on the right? Does Dune track whichever window has focus, or does it go by the last full-screen app? That edge case probably covers half of how people actually work.

Huge congrats on the #1 spot! Been watching this one closely since Priya reached out., the context-aware shortcuts for dev tools + Claude integration is exactly the kind of friction I want killed in my day. Unit just landed on my end, stoked to put it through its paces and share real thoughts soon. Rooting for y'all.

The meeting use case is a sneaky one. Most productivity hardware is built for coders, but back-to-back Zoom days are where context switching actually hurts. Three keys that know if you're in a call vs a code editor is genuinely clever. Did early users skew dev or meeting-heavy side first?

nice, i basically wanted to do the same with the elgato custom stream deck module and call it "clawboard.engineer", but this is sooo much better. i need this in my life.

Why i need this ? If I can also use siri much faster than this

Hardware buttons are dope but on the right side of the Mac (as rendered on images) you have 2 USB-C ports, why covering them both? 😀

Congrats on the launch! Looks really amazing from the design and UX standpoint. I'd love to see it in action as well — I know the video kind of shows it, but it's still a one window/tab scenario. I have a call running and I also run ChatGPT deep research in another tab — super curious to see how it would handle this kind of things. But regardless, looks very promising, hope you guys make it to the #1 rank today. Keep going!

Looks dope man! Good luck

the fact that it changes based on the foreground app is sneaky smart 👀 been losing my mind switching between cursor claude and meetings lately so this solves the exact right problem. how hard was app detection to get reliable across all the chaos?

Great initiative and product, can't wait to try out!

Great to a see an hardware product here especially the one that isn't gimmicky. Looks like a nice and simple alternative to Stream Deck. Congrats on the launch @apoorv_shankarCouple of questions. 1) Any plans of introducing colors? Would love to have one that matches the exact colors of Macbook (so it isn't noticable ;) ). It isn't a deal breaker though.2) Was planning to order today but curious to know where this will be shipped from? Would like to be prepared for customs and other charges too in case it is from SG/HK/CN etc.

Interesting contrast to tools like Stream Deck fewer buttons, but smarter ones. Feels like a bet on intelligence over customization.

Curious how fast and accurate the app detection is in practice. Even slight lag could break the flow you're aiming for.

the pre-loaded Claude and GitHub triggers are exactly what I'd use. does it handle running multiple AI tools at the same time, or does it lock to whichever one is in the foreground?

This looks fantastic! Congrats on the launch! It's USB-C connection, but you have M2 or later on the site for compatibility. Any specific reason an M1 Mac won't work? There are 2 USB-C ports in the same location as the newer models

Any hint on what the post-launch price lands at?

CNC aluminum for something this small is not a cheap decision.

Okay, I love this! I'm really excited. The vertical stack of keys looks like a smart idea. How is the latency?

Hi! Really excited to finally share what we've been building.I’m the founder of Project Mirage. We are a team of Designers, Developers and Engineers who have been building in Consumer Hardware for over 8 years, now building in AI Interfaces.What is Dune and why is it called so?Dune is a context Aware Keypad for mac that reads which app is in the foreground and automatically changes what its 3 keys do based on what you're doing. We call it Dune because a sand dune is never one thing. It shifts, quietly and constantly, shaped by whatever surrounds it.That's what these three keys do. They observe what you're doing and become what you need, right then.What Makes Dune DifferentDune is context-aware, meaning, its keys update automatically based on the app you are running. Unlike other keypads that lock you into setting up keyboard macros for each app, Dune comes with the most-used commands and complex workflows already built in. It is also highly customizable - you can write your own scripts and connect your own agents to trigger via Dune. It reads your active app and surfaces the three most relevant actions automatically, in real time.The Problem & Our SolutionThe way we interact with computers hasn't meaningfully changed in 45 years. We still rely on browsing through screens, clicking multiple links, and memorizing unnecessarily complex keyboard shortcuts for everyday actions. Most shortcuts are buried, forgotten, or simply never discovered, and that's not a user problem, it's a design problem.Meanwhile, what we actually do on computers has gotten far more complex - developers juggle dozens of tools at once, and meetings now run back-to-back with controls scattered across cluttered interfaces. The friction is constant, and it adds up.We spent months experimenting with new interface paradigms, showcased three of them at CES, and built Dune to put the best of what we learned directly in your hands. A three-key Mac keypad that reads your active app and surfaces the right actions automatically, whether you're coding, in a meeting, or getting things done.Features & Benefits1. Context Awareness: Dune detects which app is in the foreground and automatically updates what its 3 keys do in real time, so you never have to manually switch profiles or reconfigure anything.2. Instant Actions: Every key is always mapped to something relevant to what you are doing. In GitHub, that means raising a PR, approving/rejecting a change. In your meeting app, joining a call, toggling your mic and controlling your camera with one tap - all while juggling a hundred different tabs.3. Calendar Sync: Dune syncs with your calendar so you can join your meetings in a single click. Works with Zoom, Teams and Google Meet.4. Agent Triggers: Trigger your AI agents or agentic workflows directly from your desk. An email assistant, a calendar agent, or anything else you've built in Claude can be activated from the same three keys without switching context.5. Custom Macros and URLs: Connect any keyboard macro or URL in the Dune app and define exactly what each key does across any app or workflow.Who Is Dune For?Dune is built for anyone who lives on their Mac.1. Developers: Approving a PR on GitHub takes 4-6 clicks on average. Multiply that across a full day of reviews, commits, context switches, and agent triggers and you're spending more time navigating your tools than actually building. Dune maps its three keys to the actions you reach for most in GitHub, VS Code, Claude and more, so you stay in flow.2. People who live in Back-to-Back Meetings: One tap to join a call, a dedicated mic toggle that auto-brings your meeting window to front, and a camera key so you're never fumbling at the wrong moment. Syncs with your calendar and works with Zoom, Teams and Google Meet.We'd especially love to see what you build with it.Drop a comment!
