Dune
Context-aware Mac keypad to automate workflows + meetings
Our Take
Dune is a $89 physical keypad for Mac that automatically remaps its three keys depending on whether you're in VS Code, Google Meet, or wherever else your day takes you, and honestly, the context-awareness is what makes it worth talking about — it's not just a fancy macro pad, it actually detects what app you're in and serves up the right shortcuts without you doing anything. The calendar sync for one-click meeting joins is the kind of small friction killer that sounds trivial until you're late to your third consecutive call because you couldn't find the link, and if you spend your days bouncing between GitHub, Claude, and Slack, Dune probably pays for itself in week one. Project Mirage built this for developers who are living in too many tools at once, which is basically all of us, and while physical products always have a higher bar to clear, the real question is whether the software UX is smooth enough to keep you from just reaching for Keyboard Maestro — something I'd want to actually touch before saying it's nailed.
A Context-aware Keypad for Mac that sits next to your keyboard and changes what its three keys do in real time based on the app running in the foreground.
