@miladsafarzadeh1 Happy launch Milad! Perfect. I’ll test it tonight in a house with 6 cats who think my keyboard is their personal dance floor. Ultimate real-world test :D

@navid_behnami Haha 😄. 6 cats is basically a stress-test lab. Honestly, you're doing me a favour. Thaks for your support.
@miladsafarzadeh1 congrats on the launch Milad. I'm tempted to dl just for the "type like a cat" option.
@miladsafarzadeh1 Hey, congrats, this is impressive. I'm curious about the detection logic. What specific models does the weigh heaviest for cat typing and how do you tune the threshold to avoid false positives on fast human typing or genuine typos?

As a person with a missing key on my laptop from a cat attack - this is a great idea! Will there be a Windows version available at some point?
It's a very sad day for the freedom of expression enjoyed by cats everywhere--but a great day for us cat owners! What a great tool! I just wish I owned a Mac.
loved the name! waiting for this to be available on linux! :)

Open source mac utility for the exact problem i never realized had a name. Bookmarking for the day i get a cat 😄
the live demo where you try to type like a cat and watch it fight back is a great touch. also built the whole thing in a day with claude which is kind of the best ad for ai coding I've seen
