Stay in the flow. Keep creating.

Thirteen keys for the actions you reach for all day. Undo, zoom, tools and views in Shapr3D, one key each, so your eyes stay on the canvas.

The tablet is the canvas. The keys are the tools.

An iPad with Pencil is a great place to design, until you reach for the menu for the hundredth time. Keyflow puts those actions under your other hand.

One key, one action

No modifier gymnastics. Each key does exactly what its icon shows.

Shaped for one hand

Two arched rows follow your fingers, and a three-key arc sits under the thumb.

No cable

Bluetooth to your iPad, Mac, PC or Android. Coin cells inside, nothing to plug in.

Thirteen keys, in their place.

Five plus five keys on an arch that matches how fingers rest, and three thumb keys fanned at 15°, 30° and 45°. Low-profile switches keep the whole pad flat on the desk.

Map every key from your iPad.

The KeyFlow app draws the pad as it sits on your desk. Tap a key, press the shortcut or pick it from the list, and save it to the keyboard over Bluetooth.

Layers per app

Add a layer for the app you work in. Keys you leave alone work as on the layer below.

Your shortcuts

Press the combination on a keyboard, or build it from modifiers, letters and system keys.

Saved on the keyboard

Save writes the layout into KeyFlow, so it works the same on every iPad, Mac or PC.

From render to the desk.

Keyflow is designed and built by one person in Brno. Follow along as it gets from prototype to the first batch.
