About the startup

Quick Tap is a tiny menu-bar app that turns physical positions on your MacBook's trackpad into programmable triggers. You record a spot — say, the top-right corner or the middle of the left edge — and bind it to whatever you want: switch desktops, focus the VS Code window for a specific project, launch an app, close the front window. Tap that spot from inside any app, anytime, and the action fires. It learns your trackpad and your tap. Per-position match radius keeps neighboring bindings from clashing, an adjustable pressure threshold filters out accidental brushes, and an optional "require trackpad click" per binding lets you bind sensitive spots (like the area near the spacebar) without firing them by mistake. Inspired by SlapMac. Where SlapMac says "something hit the laptop," Quick Tap says "this specific spot got tapped" — the precision unlocks a different class of bindings. ✦ macOS 14+ ✦ Privacy: no telemetry, no analytics, on-device only — the only network call is your license check ✦ Free: 1 binding · Pro $1.99 (lifetime): 5 bindings · Premium $4.99 (lifetime): unlimited bindings + multi-profile switching with ⌘1/⌘2/⌘3 Built solo with a lot of help from Claude. Would love your feedback — especially on positions you'd bind that I haven't thought of.
