UI Overhaul
Keyboard layout rebuilt with arrow keys and nav cluster. Macro panel widened to 450px with inline inputs. Clipboard overlay redesigned. Consistent edit panels across all views.
Smart Case + Sorting
Smart case matching — type "Brb" to get "Be right back", "BRB" for "BE RIGHT BACK". Sortable columns in expansion and assignment lists.

Offline Beta Keys Pro
Ed25519 offline beta keys, manually issued on email request. 30-day expiry, fully local verification. No accounts, no phone-home.
Anonymous Daily Telemetry Free
Once-daily anonymous usage summary, opt-out in Settings. No IDs, no IPs, no third-party SDKs. Per-day action counts only, no persistent install ID by design.
Clipboard Stability + OCR Free
Re-entrancy guards on paste and copy operations. OCR-from-image clipboard modes (as shown, as paragraphs). Full text emitted on every new clipboard event.
Game-Friendly Hooks Free
LL mouse hook auto-pauses while a fullscreen or borderless app has focus, eliminating input lag in games. WebView2 windows suspend after 5 min idle for a lower RAM footprint when minimised to tray.
Macro Polish: Wait for Input Free

v0.5 — Encryption & Game Compatibility 3 releases · Jun 2026 Shipped
Clipboard Encryption at Rest Free Pro
AES-256-GCM encryption on the clipboard history database, with a DPAPI-wrapped master key tied to your Windows user. Legacy plaintext rows migrated automatically. Search still works, decryption happens in memory.
Scancode Injection for Games Free
Every synthetic keystroke now uses scancode-mode SendInput. DirectInput and Raw Input games (FPS engines, fighting games, BricsCAD) finally see Keyfire's keypresses where VK-only injection was silently invisible.
Hold Trigger Mode Pro
Third trigger mode alongside single press and double press. Fires a separate action when you hold a key past a configurable threshold. Race-condition fixes for overlapping triggers.
Quality of Life Free
Clipboard column toggle. Overlay HiDPI positioning fix at non-default display scaling. Popup height clamp on long lists. Profile-link discoverability tip. Live diagnostics for mouse, keyboard, and outside-click events.

Rebuilt from the ground up.

Keyfire was originally built on Electron — a 77MB installer, 150-250MB RAM, and noticeable battery drain. We rewrote the entire backend in Rust using Tauri v2, keeping the same React UI. The result: native performance, a fraction of the footprint, and a clear path to Mac support. Every feature migrated and verified on both x64 and ARM64 Windows.

77MB → 10MBInstaller size
250MB → 30MBRAM usage

Founder
Product & Design
Designs every feature, writes every spec, tests every release. Has never written a line of Rust or React. Not once. Not even a semicolon.
Claude Code
Engineering & CTO
Writes every line of code. All 30,000 of them. Rust backend, React frontend, CSS, CI pipelines, this very webpage. Works 24/7. Never complains. Occasionally hallucinates a function that doesn't exist.
Yes, Keyfire is 100% AI-built. No, we're not ashamed of it.
The founder decides what to build. Claude Code builds it. It works. Ship it.
