Learn English as you type Chinese. Keysake is a free macOS input method that shows English alongside your Chinese. Save words, phrases, or full sentences from what you want to say. Japanese, Korean, and more languages are coming soon.
GPT-6 Astra helped shape the idea behind Keysake and turn it into a working macOS input method. It supported both product ideation and development, bringing language learning into everyday typing.

@hamza_afzal_butt Thank you, Hamza, at this stage it's still mostly manual configuration, but that's already on the roadmap.
Does it show show a few natural English options or just one translation?
Keysake
@romainlefort For now, it shows one natural-sounding English translation. We’ll add the option to see other ways to say it in a future update.

@romainlefort Thank you, Romain, could you give an example?
can users customize the type of English vocabulary they want to learn?
Keysake
@angelo_bram You can’t customize vocabulary categories in the current version yet, but it’s something we could consider for a future update.
Congrats on launch! does Keysake adapt to each person’s current English level?
Keysake
@dylan_russell It’s not supported in the current version, but we can consider it for a future update. Thanks for your feedback!
Interesting that you started with macOS. Are you planning to bring it to Windows too?
Keysake
@ethan_blake27 We’ll keep that in mind! Our iOS version is coming soon, and we’ll consider Android and Windows versions after that.
