About

Dune is a small context-aware keypad for Mac that sits next to the keyboard. Its three keys change what they do in real time depending on which app is in the foreground.

It is built for developers who work across tools like GitHub, VS Code, Claude, and OpenClaw, and for anyone running AI agents or moving between back-to-back meetings on Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet, where quick, app-specific actions save time.

It is aimed at people whose day involves constant context switching and who want a physical shortcut layer that adapts to whatever they are doing, instead of remembering different keyboard shortcuts per app.

Why we picked it

Dune stood out for being physical, not another piece of software — three keys that change function based on the foreground app is a genuinely different way to cut context-switching than yet another menu bar utility competing for attention on screen.
