CapslockMute
Mute yourself instantly on video calls
MacProductivityGitHubMenu Bar Apps

A Mac utility to remap Caps Lock to the mute shortcut for Zoom, Teams, and Tandem. Because CapsLock is a large key and at your finger tips, it's much faster than clicking a button or pressing a combination of keys. It truly makes muting/unmuting muscle memory.

Tidey logo
Tidey
A tiny Mac app that helps you clean your desktop mess
MacProductivityMenu Bar Apps

Hey everyone! I built Tidey because my desktop was always a disaster. Screenshots, random downloads, files I saved "just for now" 3 months ago... you know how it goes. So I made this simple menubar app. It shows you files that have been sitting on your Desktop or Downloads folder for a while, and you just pick: delete it or keep it. Thats it. No fancy features, no AI, no subscription. Just a quick way to go through your files and finally clean things up. Would love to hear what you think!

Purifai
Stop fighting AI formatting. Clean copy-paste for Mac.
MacProductivityMenu Bar Apps

Text copied from AI tools or the web often pastes with fonts and headings you'd never use yourself, especially in email or chat. It immediately looks pasted. Paste text-only fixes the mess, but also removes bold text, lists, and structure, forcing you to rebuild everything by hand. Purifai cleans the text so it fits naturally in the app you're pasting into. It removes weird formatting while keeping paragraphs, lists, and spacing intact. Lightweight App (11MB). Fully offline. No tracking.
