Everything in Clacky

Volume Mixer

Each app its own volume, up to 200%, with a live meter, mute and its own output. Clacky remembers each app.

Card looks

Clean Mac cards by default, or colourful game cards with your Blips, Plain Light, Plain Dark, or Custom in one of six accent colours.

Notch

Clacky’s status and controls around the notch: the voice pill, the recorder’s Stop, Now Playing and the focus timer. A drawn notch on screens without one, left out of recordings unless you want it in.

Now Playing

Spotify or Music in the notch: the song, its cover, play, pause and skip. A mini player in the menu bar too.

Modes

Record, Present, Code, Focus, Call, Quiet or your own: one click switches a set of tools on together. None puts everything back.

Focus Timer

Pomodoro sessions of 25, 50 minutes or your own length, with soft ambient sound, live in the notch.

Agent Alerts

A sound and a nudge when your AI agent, like Claude Code or Codex, finishes or needs you.

Agent Usage

Claude Code’s tokens today and this week, and what they’d cost on the API, plus Codex’s tokens, read from their local files.

Mac Health

Memory, CPU, battery, busy apps and what fills your disk, explained by Boop, with gentle alerts. Turn on Remember 30 days to look back over the week and the month.

Freeze Guard

Fizz warns you before your Mac freezes, with one-click fixes.

Low on space

A soft chime when free space runs low, never during a recording. Clean up… takes you straight to Storage.

Battery Health

Cycle count and capacity against new, in Mac Health.

Dev servers

Running dev servers grouped by project, the forgotten quiet ones marked. Stop one or all; Clacky asks first.

Network

Live up and down speed, and which apps are using it. It only watches while its page is open.

Keep Awake

Stops your Mac and its screen from sleeping: for a while, with the lid closed, or until your agent is done.

Voice to Prompt

Speak, and your words are copied as a prompt, with the ums taken out, on your Mac. Turn on Paste automatically and it’s pasted where you were typing.

Text Expander

Type :sig, get your signature. Your snippets, anywhere you type.

Clipboard History

Your last 50 copies: search, pin, paste. Off by default and kept in memory; you can keep them across restarts, encrypted on this Mac. Copies from password managers are never kept.

Color Picker

Pick any colour on screen, copied as HEX, RGB, HSL or SwiftUI.

Mic Mute

One shortcut mutes your mic in every app. Hold it to talk.

Click Doctor

Stops a worn mouse from double-clicking by itself.

Window Snapping

Drag a window to an edge for halves and quarters, or use ⌃⌥ and the arrow keys.

Menu Bar Tidy

Tuck rarely used menu bar icons behind a divider. Notch-safe; hover or scroll the menu bar to bring them out.

App Uninstaller

Remove an app and the files it left in your Library. Everything goes to the Trash, so you can change your mind.

Notes & Today

Quick notes and today’s checklist. Stays on this Mac.

Ka-ching

Boop catches a coin in the notch for every new sale on Polar or Stripe. Hide amounts and it only counts sales.

Shortcuts

Every Clacky shortcut in one list. Change any of them; if the keys are taken, Clacky says by whom.

Move to a New Mac

Save your Clacky set-up to a file and open it on your new Mac. Private things stay behind.

Screen Recorder

Record the full screen, one window or an area, with your clicks heard and their ripples seen. Saved to Movies › Clacky. macOS 15 or later.

Auto edit

Studio cuts the quiet between your sentences, zooms in on every burst of clicks and speeds up the waiting. Click a cut to bring it back.

Edit by transcript

Select words in the transcript and press Delete: they’re cut from the video with a soft fade. Click a struck word to bring it back.

Remove filler words

Every um, uh and “you know”, found in the transcript. Uncheck the ones to keep, then remove the rest in one go.

Captions

Your words appear as you say them, written on your Mac, nothing uploaded. Seven caption looks and five fonts.

Look and 3D angle

Float your recording on a wallpaper, a colour, your own image or a blur, then tilt it in 3D: it leans in as a zoom starts.

Redact video

Drag a box over something private: Blur, Pixelate or a solid Bar, for as long as you like. It follows the zoom.

9:16, 4:5, 16:9 and 1:1

Tall 9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok with the camera following your pointer, 4:5 for the Instagram and Threads feed, wide for X and YouTube, square too. Safe zones show where the app buttons go.

Crop

Hide the menu bar and the Dock in one click, crop to where you clicked, or drag the corners. Zooms and captions work inside the crop.

Clips and speed

Split, trim and delete clips on the Clips lane (⌘B, Q, W), and play any clip from 0.5× to 8×.

Export presets

Pick where it’s going: TikTok, Reels, Shorts, X, LinkedIn, YouTube or a GIF. Pick a file size and Studio makes it fit.

Recordings search

Search your recordings by name, date and the words you said. A match shows the line it’s in.

Screenshot editor

Grab an area, a window or the whole screen. Mark it up with arrows, steps, text and blur, then copy or save.

Polish

A background picked from the shot (or your own colour, picture or brand), padding and a soft shadow. ⌥⇧⌘6 takes a polished shot straight away.

Collage

Put shots from the Shelf on one canvas, pick a layout, and Nice adds a background, even gaps, rounded corners and shadows.

Record one window

Hover a window to light it up, click to pick it. Only that window is recorded, with your clicks, ripples and camera.

Pause and resume

Pause from the pill, the menu or the notch. Resume and it carries on: one file at the end.

Stop from the notch

While you record, the notch shows a red dot and the time, with Pause and Stop beside it. They never show up in the video.

Mic and Mac audio

Mac audio is on, so your clicks and everything the Mac plays are in the video. Add your microphone when you want it.

Camera bubble

Your camera in a bubble over the recording: built-in, Continuity Camera or external, with shape, size, border and mirror.

Cursor styles

Arrow, Hand, Big Arrow, Boop Paw or Hidden. Every click squishes it, the ripple right under its tip.

Presenter Mode

A halo that follows your cursor, drawing on the screen, click to zoom, and a big pulse when you lose the pointer.

Spotlight

Dims the screen around the pointer while you record.

Clacky stays out of the video

The recorder bar, countdown, pill and Clacky’s windows are left out of your recordings. Demo Mode puts them in.

Make a Clip

One click makes a 1080 × 1920 clip for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, the camera following your clicks, and copies a caption.

GIF Export

Turn any recording into a small, shareable GIF.

Teleprompter

Your script right under the camera. It never shows in recordings.

Clean Up Voice

Hum, hiss and room noise gone, your voice at an even level, processed on your Mac. Clicks stay crisp.

Music

Four music beds made by Clacky, free to use anywhere. The music dips while you talk and comes back when you stop.

Sound effects

A soft whoosh as the camera zooms, a low thump where a pause was cut, one real Clacky click on the end card.

Made for

Tell Studio what the video is made for: Product demo, Launch teaser, Short, Tutorial or Build in public. The shape, captions and cuts follow.

Pop-up ideas

Studio listens for a feature, a number or “first… then…” and offers pop-up cards right where you said it.

Saved looks

Save a look with a name: background, frame, angle and captions. Use it for the next video in one click.

Find private info

Clacky reads the screen in your recording, on your Mac, finds emails, phone numbers, card numbers, keys and IP addresses, and Hide all covers them.

Export for Claude

One file with your words, their times, the clicks and the edit. Claude Code writes an edit plan; import it and its pop-ups land on the timeline.

Showcase

Your shot in a window, iPhone, MacBook, iPad or browser frame, at a 3D angle on a background. Copy or save at 4K, 6K or 8K.

Window and browser frames

Give an area shot a title bar, or a browser frame with your link in the address bar. Auto-balance evens out the margins.

Sizes and looks

Exact sizes for X, Product Hunt, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and the App Store, and up to 8 looks of your own.

Redact screenshots

Drag a solid bar over a password, key or email. Nothing under the bar survives.

Shelf

Every shot slides onto the Shelf beside the editor. Drop in any image, or drag one out to Finder or any app.

Grab Text

Press ⌥⇧⌘T and drag over any text: a video, a PDF, a photo. Your Mac reads it right there and it’s on your clipboard.

Grab Code

Read a QR code or barcode on screen. Links come without trackers.

Scrolling Capture

Pick a window and Clacky scrolls it for you, stitching one tall image of the whole page.

Copy only

Mark up a shot, press ⌘C and it’s copied, with nothing left in your folder. Click Save when you want to keep it.

Keyboard Sounds

Typing sounds as you type. Each key press becomes a sound on your Mac and is never recorded, stored or sent. Password fields stay quiet.

Scroll Ticks

A soft tick for every notch of the scroll wheel, in 8 scroll styles.

Click Ripples

A ripple under the pointer on every click, so anyone watching sees where you clicked.

Sounds where you want them

Only with headphones, on the output you pick, or only in the apps you choose. Ripples still show everywhere.

Your Stats

Your clicks, focus, recordings and streak by day, week or month, with your busiest hours. Counted on this Mac; Share on X when you like.

Your Week

A shareable card of your Clacky week, with Boop.

Ask Boop

Ask “how do I…” and the answer comes as numbered steps with pictures. If it’s a setting, Do it for me flips it; Undo puts it back.

Find anything

Press ⌘K to find any tool, setting or action by name, or ask Boop in plain words.

Boop Support

Ask a question or report a bug and Justinas, the human who makes Clacky, answers, with step-by-step pictures when it helps.

Boop’s Tour

Boop walks you through the places. Find it again in Help → Boop’s Tour.

Clacky Card

Your cookies, your Blip and your membership: Lifetime, Early Supporter, Yearly, Monthly or the free trial, with the day you joined. Flip it for your level and your factory batch.

How you earn cookies

Boop bakes every day, using Clacky adds a few (1,000 clicks, a recording, a focus session), and level-ups, achievements, friends and sharing bring bonuses. There’s a daily limit.

Cookie Factory

Once a day Boop bakes a batch, bigger at higher levels. Away? Up to 3 days of batches wait for you.

Boop’s Bazaar

Where cookies are spent: looks for your Blip. Hover one to see your Blip wearing it. Levels and freezes are never for sale.

Levels map

100 levels in 10 worlds, from Desk to Golden Hall. Your Blip walks the path, and every few levels unlock something, like harbour props.

Your Blip’s home

A cozy house: decorate it, hang your best screenshot on the wall, and watch Clacky TV, short original shows starring Blips.

Share cards

A card of your Blip, your stats or an achievement, in 1:1, 9:16 or 16:9, made on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded.

Chess vs Boop

The first game in Games: play Boop at Sleepy, Clever or Genius. Undo and New game are always there.

Your Blip

Your own little character. Making things with Clacky levels it up, earns it things to wear and keeps a streak. It stays on your Mac unless you turn on Friends, which shows it to your friends.

Profile bubble

Your Blip in a ring that fills as you earn points. Hover for level, cookies and streak; click for your closet, achievements and Your Stats.

Daily treat

Open one treat a day. Each day in a row adds a little more, days 7, 14 and 30 bring a gift, and a missed day is forgiven once a week.

Achievements

75 achievements for clicks, keys, streaks, making things and more, counted on this Mac. Numbers only, never which keys.

Friends

Turn on Friends, add people by @username, invite code or link, and send cheers: clap, on fire, cookie or wow. Nothing is sent before you turn it on.

People

Find friends by @username. With Friends on, you can be found too; turn that off in Privacy. Unfriend, block or report anyone.

Leaderboards

Boards for clicks, streak, cookies and top creators, among friends or everyone. Off until you join; everyone starts from zero each Monday.

Cookie hugs

Friends of 7 days or more can leave each other a cookie hug once a day: 10 cookies from Boop’s oven, so nobody’s balance goes down. No trading, no cash-out.

Share rewards

Cookies for sharing your card or a new achievement on X, said plainly in the post. Up to 500 a week.

Blip by the notch

Your Blip sits small beside the notch, blinks now and then, and says one short line when something needs you.

Creator packs

Blips, outfits and sounds by independent creators in Boop’s Bazaar, each with its maker’s name.

Every number, charted

Visitors, visits, page views, bounce rate, visit time, sales and who’s online now. Click any number to chart it against the period before.

Visitors

Each visit, step by step: where it came from, the pages it saw and what it did.

Social calendar

Write a post once and Clacky checks every platform’s limit. Drop it on a ★ day, the best time from your own posts; drag, edit or cancel with undo.

Your sites

Add a website by pasting one line before </head>. It turns green when the first visitor arrives; live visitors can sit in the menu bar.

Where they come from

Search, social, AI assistants, email, launch sites, paid ads and campaigns, plus pages, countries, cities, devices, browsers and languages.

Goals and funnels

Name a goal like “Signed up”, then add steps to see where people drop off.

Export and share

Export CSV, or copy a read-only link anyone can open to see a site’s stats, no sign-in.

Cookie-free

No cookies, no IP addresses kept, no banner needed.

Revenue

Connect Polar or Stripe, read-only: revenue, MRR, churn and refunds, with each sale matched to the visit that clicked Buy.

A SKILL.md that tells Claude Code when to use which Clacky tool. One command installs it:

Private by design

Everything stays on your Mac and only file paths come back. No tool reads keystrokes, typed text or your clipboard history.

$39 a year, which comes to $3.25 a month.

7-day trial

Monthly and Yearly start with a 7-day trial. It starts with your card and nothing is charged during the trial.

Two Macs

Privacy

Keys become sounds and are never recorded. Screenshots, recordings and captions stay on your Mac. Anonymous usage stats you can switch off.
