Best Hotkeys Software for Mac & Windows

Repetitive clicks and keystrokes can drain both productivity and morale. Keyboard hotkey software aims to banish this drudgery by letting you trigger complex actions with simple keyboard shortcuts.

Ever wished you could press a single key combo to launch a sequence of apps, type a canned email response, or reorganize files? With the right tool, you can.

This updated 2026 guide provides a comprehensive look at the best hotkey software for text and workflow automation, across both macOS and Windows.

We’ll explain how these tools work, highlight key benefits, and review top solutions (free, paid, and open-source) for each platform – including new contenders that have risen in popularity since the original article’s publication.

How Hotkey Automation Software Works

Hotkey automation tools run in the background, listening for triggers – usually specific key combinations or typed abbreviations – and then execute defined actions. A trigger might be a keyboard shortcut (e.g. Ctrl + Alt + N) or a short text snippet (like typing “brb”). The corresponding action can be virtually anything: inserting a block of text, launching a program, or executing a series of scripted steps.

Under the hood, these utilities intercept your keyboard input at the system level. When a defined hotkey or text pattern is detected, the software can suppress the normal input and run your predefined task.

For example, text expansion tools replace a short abbreviation with a longer snippet; you could use “addr” to instantly output your full mailing address in any app.

More advanced macro tools can simulate sequences of keystrokes and mouse clicks, essentially programming your computer to perform repetitive tasks on your behalf.

Many automation programs also provide scripting languages or visual editors so you can define conditional logic (if-then-else), loops, or form inputs to create dynamic behaviors.

In essence, hotkey software acts as a personal productivity assistant, hooking into the operating system’s event handling so that when you press that magic key sequence, the tool either inserts text or calls low-level OS functions to mimic user actions.

Key Benefits of Hotkeys and Automation

Implementing hotkey and automation software offers several benefits for both individuals and teams:

Time Savings: Speed through repetitive tasks by executing them instantly via shortcuts. Routine actions that took minutes can happen in milliseconds, freeing time for higher-value work.
Improved Accuracy: Automated text snippets reduce typos and ensure complex procedures are done the same way every time, minimizing human error. This consistency is especially crucial in team communications and documentation.
Enhanced Productivity: Offloading mundane actions to macros lets you focus on creative and analytical work. Keeping your hands on the keyboard with shortcuts also reduces context-switching and friction in your workflow.
Customization & Control: Hotkey tools let you tailor your computer to your workflow. Remap inconvenient key sequences, create shortcuts for launching apps or websites, and streamline daily interactions with your OS.
Reduced Repetitive Strain: Automating frequent clicks and keystrokes can mitigate physical strain (e.g. RSI) by cutting down on needless movements. It’s like ergonomics for your workflow.
Team Knowledge Sharing: Some text expansion tools (e.g. TextExpander) allow snippet libraries to be shared across a team. Everyone uses the same approved responses, signatures, or templates, leading to unified messaging and faster onboarding for new members.

These advantages can compound in a team setting. Standardized hotkeys and shared automation scripts encode best practices into your tools. The whole team benefits from the efficiencies discovered by one power user.

Top Hotkey & Automation Tools for macOS

Mac users are known for embracing productivity utilities, and indeed there’s no shortage of capable automation software on macOS. Below are some of the best hotkey and macro tools for Mac:

TextExpander (Mac Version – Freemium/Paid)

On macOS, TextExpander is a go-to solution for text shortcuts and snippets, just as on Windows. The Mac app integrates smoothly with macOS, letting you expand abbreviations in any application. Individuals and teams use it to create a library of shortcuts that instantly expand into full text content – e.g. abbreviating “addr” to insert a full address, or “signature” to drop in an email signature. The Mac version supports all the features described above (rich text snippets, fill-ins, etc.), plus it can integrate with AppleScript or Shell scripts if needed for advanced workflows. It’s a professional, well-supported tool that even provides analytics on how much typing time you save.

Alfred (Freemium, Powerpack Paid)

Alfred is a productivity app for macOS that boosts efficiency with hotkeys, keywords, and automation workflows. At its core, Alfred is an application launcher and search tool (an advanced alternative to Spotlight). You bring up Alfred’s prompt (usually via Option + Space or a custom hotkey) and can launch apps, find files, or perform web searches in a snap. With the optional Powerpack (a paid add-on), Alfred transforms into a broader automation tool: you can create workflows that chain actions together, no coding required. For example, you might set up a workflow such that typing a keyword triggers Alfred to fetch a stock price from the web and copy it to your clipboard, or a hotkey that resizes the front window and attaches it to an email. Alfred also includes a clipboard history, snippet expansion (text replacements), and many user-contributed workflows for third-party integrations.

Pros:

Fast launcher – keyboard-centric and far more flexible than macOS’s built-in Spotlight. It learns your usage patterns to prioritize results.
Custom workflows (Powerpack) allow powerful automation without coding – the community has shared thousands of workflows for everything from managing Spotify to toggling Wi-Fi.
Includes handy extras: snippet expansion, clipboard manager, system commands, calculator, and more, all in one interface.

Cons:

The most powerful workflow features require the paid Powerpack. The free version is an excellent launcher but limited in automation.
macOS only (no Windows version), though there are alternative launchers on Windows.
While basic use is easy, complex workflows can have a learning curve to build/debug (though many can be imported from community examples).

Pricing: Core Alfred is free. The Powerpack (which unlocks workflows, theming, and other advanced features) is a one-time purchase of £34 (~$40 USD) for a single-user license for the current major version, or £59 (~$70) for a “Mega Supporter” license with lifetime upgrades. No subscription required.

Platforms: macOS only (macOS 10.14 and higher; Apple Silicon supported).

Keyboard Maestro (Paid)

Keyboard Maestro is a Mac automation utility, letting you automate virtually anything on your Mac. It works by creating “macros” – which can be triggered by hotkeys, menu bar clicks, typed strings, specific app launches, and more – to perform sequences of actions. Those actions range from typing text, manipulating files, and controlling windows, to clicking UI buttons, running AppleScripts or shell scripts, and even inserting pauses or logical conditions. In short, if you can do it manually on a Mac, Keyboard Maestro can probably automate it.

Over 2024-2025, Keyboard Maestro received major updates (version 11 was released in late 2023) adding a New Macro Wizard for easier macro creation, improved interface for permissions and triggers, and dozens of new built-in actions. The tool now includes quality-of-life features like a macro debugger, OCR of images, and the ability to prompt the user for input (forms, selections) within macros.

Pros:

Hundreds of built-in actions and the ability to integrate AppleScript, JavaScript, Shell commands, etc., means you can automate anything on macOS.
Highly flexible triggers (hotkeys, typed phrases, USB device events, time of day, login, application events, etc.). You can, for example, have a macro run every day at 9 AM to set up your workspace, or trigger when you connect to a specific Wi-Fi network.
No subscription; one-time purchase license with free minor updates. Very cost-effective for heavy users of automation.

Cons:

Mac-only (no Windows version).
The sheer breadth of features can be overwhelming at first; the UI is utilitarian. Beginners may need to read documentation or forums to unlock its full potential.
Lacks cloud sync – macros can be manually exported/imported but do not sync between Macs automatically (though you can sync via Dropbox or iCloud Drive by pointing Keyboard Maestro’s macro storage there).

Pricing: One-time purchase. Keyboard Maestro 11 costs $36 USD for a single-user license (no subscription). Paid upgrades to major new versions come roughly every ~2-3 years (upgrade price ~$25). A free trial is available.

Platforms: macOS only. Requires macOS 10.13 or newer (including support for macOS 14 “Tahoe” in 2025 and Apple Silicon).

BetterTouchTool (Paid)

BetterTouchTool (BTT) takes a unique approach to hotkey automation: it allows Mac users to customize input devices and gestures to trigger actions. Originally focused on adding new multi-touch gestures, BTT now supports configuring trackpad gestures, Magic Mouse swipes, normal mouse buttons, keyboard shortcuts, and even the MacBook Touch Bar as triggers. In response to those triggers, you can define a huge variety of actions – from resizing windows and moving them around (BTT includes advanced window snapping and tiling features) to running AppleScripts, opening apps, typing text, or virtually any automation you can script.

For example, you could tap the trackpad with four fingers to execute a shortcut that arranges your windows just how you like, or map a custom keyboard shortcut to mute/unmute your microphone system-wide. If you have a MacBook Pro with a Touch Bar, BTT lets you create custom Touch Bar buttons that perform actions (or even display dynamic info like CPU usage). It’s truly a Swiss Army knife for customizing the Mac’s inputs and UI behavior.

Pros:

Unparalleled customization of Mac inputs – create your own multi-touch gestures and keyboard shortcuts to do anything. Great for enhancing ergonomics and efficiency (e.g., perform common actions with a simple finger gesture).
Includes handy window management tools (snap windows to halves/quarters of the screen, custom snap areas) and many other extras, reducing the need for separate apps for those tasks.
Active development and community presets – BTT’s feature set has continually grown, and you can import preset gesture/shortcut configurations shared by others.

Cons:

macOS only.
The interface can be a bit dense due to the plethora of options. Setting up complex triggers and conditional responses might require some patience.
While inexpensive, it’s not free (though it does offer a long trial). Some features overlap with macOS native ones (Mission Control, etc.), so you’ll want to configure it in a way that complements rather than complicates your workflow.

Pricing: Shareware model. BTT offers a 45-day free trial. A Standard License costs around $14 USD and includes 2 years of free updates; a Lifetime License is about $24 USD (one-time) for all future versions. It’s also available as part of the Setapp subscription service.

Platforms: macOS only (macOS 10.15+ recommended). Supports both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Raycast (Free; Pro Subscription for advanced features)

Raycast is a newcomer that has quickly become one of the most talked-about Mac productivity tools in recent years. It’s an extendable keyboard launcher, similar in concept to Alfred, but with a modern twist and a thriving extension ecosystem. Out of the box, Raycast lets you launch apps and search files like other launchers, but it also includes dozens of built-in commands (clipboard history, window management, emoji picker, etc.) and a store of extensions to integrate with third-party services. For example, you can install extensions to create Jira tickets, control Spotify, send predefined iMessages, manage GitHub pull requests, and so on – all accessible via quick keyboard commands.

Raycast has a clean UI and is very developer-friendly (its extension API is open, and thousands of community-built extensions are available). It also introduced Raycast AI, which integrates GPT-based AI assistance directly into the launcher for tasks like writing or summarizing text. Notably, as of late 2025, Raycast has expanded beyond macOS – it launched a public beta for Windows 10/11 to bring the experience cross-platform. This makes Raycast an exciting option if you want a consistent launcher across both Mac and Windows in the near future.

Pros:

Fast, polished UI with a rich extension ecosystem. Many tasks can be done without leaving the launcher (e.g. translate text, manage tasks, run scripts).
Completely free for personal use. Core features and extensions are free, which makes it very accessible.
Huge momentum and community – by 2024 it had hundreds of thousands of daily users and 20k+ developers creating extensions. Frequent updates and new features (e.g. the AI integration, notes, etc.).
Multi-platform expansion: macOS app is mature; Windows version is on the way (beta now), and an iOS companion app exists.

Cons:

Raycast is still Mac-first in focus; the Windows version (in beta) isn’t yet as full-featured.
Lacks some of Alfred’s deepest power-user features (Alfred’s workflows can be more complex than Raycast’s extensions in some cases). Power users might still prefer Alfred for heavy customization.
An optional Pro subscription (Raycast Pro) is needed for advanced capabilities like unlimited AI usage, cloud snippet syncing, and custom themes. While not required for core use, some features sit behind the paywall.

Pricing: Free for core use – “free forever” for individuals, including all built-in features and community extensions. The optional Raycast Pro subscription is $8/month (billed annually) which unlocks AI features (beyond a free quota of uses), cloud sync for data (snippets, settings), and personalization. A Teams plan ($12/user/month) adds team-wide sharing of extensions, snippets, etc. Most users will find the free version robust enough.

Platforms: macOS (fully supported, macOS 13+), Windows 10/11 (beta as of 2025), and a companion iOS app. Extensions sync between devices if using the same account (Pro account needed for cloud sync).

Mac Users Should Notes…

In addition to the above tools, macOS also includes built-in automation utilities like Automator and the newer Shortcuts app. These allow you to create multi-step workflows and even assign them to keyboard shortcuts or Quick Actions. While not as feature-rich as some third-party apps, Shortcuts (introduced on Mac in Monterey) can handle many basic automation needs and can complement the tools above. Advanced users can also leverage AppleScript or shell scripts triggered by hotkeys (via apps like FastScripts or Keyboard Maestro) for custom tasks. The Mac automation ecosystem is rich – the best choice depends on whether you prefer out-of-the-box solutions or building-blocks for customization.

Top Hotkey & Automation Tools for Windows

Windows users also have a great selection of automation utilities, from simple text expanders to full-blown scripting languages. The landscape has evolved in recent years with Microsoft itself entering the arena. Here are some of the best hotkey and macro tools for Windows:

TextExpander (Windows Version – Freemium/Paid)

TextExpander isn’t just for Mac – it brings the same enterprise-grade text expansion capabilities to Windows as well. The Windows version offers a clean, modern interface for creating and managing your snippet library. As on Mac, you type short trigger abbreviations and TextExpander instantly expands them into longer text or executes snippet scripts. This is ideal for professionals and teams on Windows who want to ensure consistency and speed in written communication (customer support replies, sales outreach, legal templates, medical notes, etc.).

Because TextExpander on Windows syncs via the cloud, it’s particularly attractive if you work in a mixed OS environment – you can create a snippet on your PC and use it later on your Mac or iPad, and vice versa. It’s a polished alternative to many Windows text automation tools that often rely on more manual scripting.

Microsoft Power Automate Desktop (Free)

Power Automate Desktop is Microsoft’s official foray into automation on Windows. It was made free for all Windows 10 and 11 users in early 2021, essentially bundling a powerful RPA (Robotic Process Automation) tool into the OS. Unlike simple hotkey programs, Power Automate is a low-code solution that lets you build automation flows using a drag-and-drop interface. You can record actions (mouse clicks, keyboard input) or use a library of predefined steps (like “Launch Excel”, “Click UI Element”, “Extract data from webpage”, etc.) to construct automation routines. These flows can then be run with a click or assigned to a shortcut.

For example, with Power Automate you could record a process: open a browser, log into a website, download a report, copy some content into Excel, and send an email. Once recorded, that sequence can be replayed any time with one command. The tight integration with Microsoft 365 and other Microsoft services is a big plus – it can interact with Office apps, Teams, SharePoint, etc., in ways third-party tools might not as easily. It’s essentially an enterprise-grade automation platform now available to individual users for free.

Pros:

No cost for Windows 10/11 users – a very powerful tool provided out-of-the-box.
Rich set of actions and connectors, especially for Microsoft products (Office, Azure, SQL Server, etc.), which is great for business workflows.
Visual interface and recorder make it approachable for non-programmers to automate multi-step tasks across apps (true RPA capabilities on your desktop).

Cons:

Purely Windows-centric. (There is a separate Power Automate service for cloud flows, but that’s outside the desktop scope and can have additional costs.)
The interface, while user-friendly for simple tasks, can get complex when building advanced automations – there’s a learning curve to master the tool’s full potential.
Overkill for simple text expansion or single-hotkey tasks. For instance, using it just to remap a key or insert text might be too heavy; smaller hotkey utilities can be more convenient for lightweight needs.

Pricing: Free. Power Automate Desktop is included with Windows 10/11. (Enterprise users who integrate with the cloud Power Automate may incur separate licensing for cloud flows, but local desktop flows are free.)

Platforms: Windows 10 and Windows 11. (Not available on older Windows, and no Mac version. Mac users have Automator/Shortcuts as somewhat analogous built-ins.)

FastKeys (Paid, Windows)

FastKeys is an all-in-one Windows automation suite that combines text expansion, configurable menus, keyboard shortcuts, mouse gestures, and a macro recorder in one package. It’s incredibly powerful yet designed to be easy for non-coders. With FastKeys, you can do things like: assign a hotkey to launch a specific website or program, use shorthand abbreviations to auto-type commonly used text (like an email address or a phrase), create a custom Start Menu that pops up under your cursor with your favorite apps, and even record macros of your actions.

A standout feature is its Auto Complete function which learns what you type frequently and suggests completions – very handy for repetitive typing tasks. FastKeys also includes a clipboard manager and mouse gestures (so, for example, drawing a certain pattern with your mouse can trigger an action). Think of FastKeys as a Swiss Army knife for Windows automation: it touches on many areas (text expansion, macros, launching, clipboard, gestures) under one roof.

Pros:

Multiple tools in one: You get text expansion, hotkeys, menus, autocorrect, and more, without needing separate programs for each.
User-friendly configuration with a central control panel. You don’t need scripting knowledge to set up most functions – it provides templates and a simple GUI for defining actions.
Lightweight and fast. Despite its breadth, FastKeys is efficient with minimal resource usage and no bloat (the installer is small and it runs quietly in the tray).
Active development: as of 2026, it’s on version 6 with regular updates and improvements.

Cons:

Windows only. No cross-platform sync (focused solely on Windows environment).
Not free – though it has a trial, continued use requires purchasing a license.
Lacks the extreme depth of specialization that a dedicated tool might have in one area (for example, its macro recorder is great but power users might eventually prefer writing scripts in AutoHotkey for more complex logic; its text expansion is excellent but not as team-oriented as TextExpander’s cloud snippets).

Pricing: $29 USD one-time for a personal license (lifetime use of the current major version). This is very affordable given it replaces multiple tools. Business licenses and volume discounts are available. You can trial it for free with occasional reminders until you purchase.

Platforms: Windows (works on Windows 7, 8, 10, 11 – though Windows 10/11 recommended). No Mac/Linux versions.

AutoHotkey (Free, Open-Source)

No discussion of Windows hotkey software would be complete without AutoHotkey (AHK). AutoHotkey is a free, open-source scripting language for Windows that’s tailor-made for creating keyboard shortcuts and macros. It has been a staple of power users for over a decade. With AHK, you can script simple things like remapping one key to another, or very complex things like a program that detects a pixel color on screen and reacts to it. Many users start with AutoHotkey to do things like assign new hotkeys (e.g. make Caps Lock open Calculator, or map Ctrl+Shift+C to close a window) or to create text expansion “hotstrings” (e.g. ::brb::be right back). But it can do a lot more.

AHK version 2.0 was officially released in late 2022 and by 2023 became the primary version, with a cleaner syntax and improvements over the older v1.x. This modern AHK v2 is what new users should start with (though plenty of v1 scripts still exist). Writing an AHK script involves using a text editor to define your hotkeys and actions, then running the script – at which point it stays resident and activates your hotkeys. There are community-provided editors and tools to assist with script writing as well.

Pros:

Extremely flexible and powerful – you can automate almost anything in Windows: keystrokes, mouse movements, window manipulations, file operations, GUI interactions, etc.. If there’s no built-in action, you can call Windows API functions or COM objects.
Custom hotkeys and hotstrings: The primary use-case – assign any key combo to do any series of actions. Or have typed abbreviations expand into text (AHK can serve as a basic text expander too).
Vibrant community and free: Tons of user-contributed scripts, forums full of help, and no cost. Many popular small utilities (like certain clipboard managers or window resizers) are actually written in AutoHotkey by community members.

Cons:

Requires scripting. AHK is code-based. While relatively easy for those with some programming or scripting inclination, it may intimidate non-coders. (However, many beginners learn basic AHK scripting fairly quickly due to good documentation and examples.)
No official GUI for creation. (There are third-party macro recorders or GUI script generators that produce AHK scripts – e.g. Pulover’s Macro Creator – but using them is separate from AHK itself.)
Scripts can occasionally conflict or cause antivirus false positives (since AHK can automate anything, some antivirus heuristics flag compiled AHK scripts – using well-known scripts and staying to reputable sources mitigates this).
Windows only. If you switch to Mac/Linux, AHK scripts won’t run there (though Linux has a similar tool AutoKey, and Mac has AppleScript/Automator etc., but they’re different ecosystems).

Pricing: Free. AutoHotkey is open-source (GNU GPL) and community-developed. You can download it without any cost.

Platforms: Windows (officially Windows 7 and later; widely used on Windows 10 and 11. It does not run on other OS, except via compatibility layers like Wine on Linux which is experimental).

AutoIt (Free)

AutoIt is another veteran Windows automation tool, often mentioned alongside AutoHotkey. In fact, historically AutoHotkey was inspired by AutoIt (AHK was created when AutoIt v2 didn’t include certain hotkey features). AutoIt uses a BASIC-like scripting language to automate the Windows GUI. It can simulate keystrokes, mouse movements, window commands, and interact with system dialogs. AutoIt scripts can be compiled into standalone .exe files, which is useful if you want to create a small utility and share it with coworkers who don’t have AutoIt installed.

AutoIt tends to be popular in IT and QA testing contexts – for example, creating scripts to automate software installation steps or test UI flows. It has an official editor and a comprehensive help file. While AutoIt’s community is smaller than AutoHotkey’s, it’s still maintained (as of 2025 they released version 3.3.18.0, so it’s up to date).

Pros:

Simple BASIC-like syntax that might be more familiar to some (if you’ve ever done VBScript or basic Visual Basic, AutoIt will look somewhat familiar).
Can create compiled executables easily, which is great for distributing an automation script as a “tool” without requiring others to install anything.
Good for automating Windows dialogs and controls; has functions to find windows, click buttons by name, read text, etc. Useful for GUI automation tasks like installation scripts or repetitive software tasks.

Cons:

Also requires scripting (no drag-and-drop interface by default, though SciTE editor for AutoIt helps).
Overlapping functionality with AutoHotkey – many people find AHK more approachable for quick hotkeys, whereas AutoIt might be used for more standalone script programs. Depending on your needs, you might pick one or the other.
Windows only. And in recent years, AutoHotkey’s popularity has somewhat eclipsed AutoIt for general-purpose use (AHK’s community is larger). Still, AutoIt remains very capable.

Pricing: Free (freeware). It’s not open-source (AutoIt switched to closed-source in v3), but it is free for anyone to use.

Platforms: Windows only.

Windows Users Should Note…

In addition to the above, there are other notable tools and emerging options. Pulover’s Macro Creator is a popular free GUI front-end for AutoHotkey that allows you to record macros and generate AHK scripts – handy if you prefer a visual approach. Long-standing commercial tools like Macro Express have offered macro recording and hotkey automation for years, though Macro Express’s original developers ceased operations in 2025 (the software might still be used in some enterprise environments, but it’s not actively developed). Power users might also leverage PowerShell or Windows Script Host for automation tasks, though those aren’t hotkey-driven and require scripting. Finally, Microsoft’s PowerToys (free) includes a Keyboard Manager for remapping keys or shortcuts on Windows, which can be useful for simple key tweaks (though it doesn’t create multi-step macros). There’s also Text Blaze (a Chrome-based text expansion tool) and PhraseExpress (a text expander for Windows) for those specifically interested in text automation, but they venture into similar territory as TextExpander.

Best Hotkey Software for Customer Service

TextExpander is an excellent hotkey solution for customer service and support teams because it makes handling repetitive inquiries fast and effortless. Agents create snippets–short shortcuts that instantly expand into full, pre-written responses–so common questions can be answered in seconds. Instead of retyping the same replies, support reps can respond with a few keystrokes, reducing typing time and speeding up ticket resolution. The result is faster responses for customers and significant time savings for support teams.

Speed doesn’t come at the expense of personalization. TextExpander supports dynamic snippets with fill-in fields, allowing agents to insert customer-specific details like names, order numbers, or custom notes before sending. A single shortcut can generate a complete email while still feeling tailored to each recipient. This keeps responses consistent and accurate across the team without sounding robotic or overly scripted.

TextExpander also excels at team collaboration. Support teams can share a centralized library of approved replies, FAQs, and templates that stays synced in real time. Updates are instantly available to everyone, eliminating duplicate work and ensuring consistent messaging. With shared snippets and built-in analytics to track usage and time saved, TextExpander helps support teams stay aligned, efficient, and focused on delivering high-quality customer experiences.
