Hey everyone! I'm Adrian, I built Keeby.
I love my MacBook but I really miss the sound of typing on a mechanical keyboard. So I made an app that plays real recorded switch sounds while you type.
A few things that make it different:
- Every sound is recorded from actual switches, not synthesized
- Spatial audio so left keys play from your left speaker, right from right
- 11 switch profiles (Gateron Red, Holy Panda, Alps Blue, Box Navy, Cream, and more)
- Reactive visualizer that follows your typing
- Tone controls to dial between thock and clack
- Fully offline, no data collected
Apple rejected it 4 times before finally approving it. Would love to hear what you think and happy to answer any questions!
Dude, I bought it but I can't get past the permission screen. I can't install it.
Love that these are recorded from real switches with spatial audio rather than synthesized samples - makes a huge difference for immersion. Curious whether the sound profiles adapt to typing speed, like if you're hammering away at 120 WPM does it handle the rapid key overlap naturally or does it start clipping?
Congrats on the launch!
Such a fun idea — love the attention to detail with real switch recordings and spatial audio, that’s a very cool touch. Feels like one of those small things that actually makes everyday work more enjoyable.
We also launched on Product Hunt a few days ago, so can definitely relate — hope you’re having an amazing launch day. Good luck!
That is amazing, brings peace to my mind when I can't carry my mechanical keyboard with me, good job Adrian.

Who hunted Keeby?
Keeby was hunted by Adrian Angelo Abelarde (Belards). A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
