Features

Everything your workflow needs

One app to navigate projects, trigger actions, and automate repetitive tasks across your desktop.

🗂

Multi-workspace Boards

Organise projects into workspaces. Each workspace has its own node graph with custom links and targets, so your contexts never mix.

⚡

One-click Launch Targets

Open paths, editors, browser URLs, or run shell scripts straight from a node. Configure each target once, trigger it instantly.

🔁

Sequential Macro Engine

Chain actions into macros — type text, fire shortcuts, open apps, add delays. Automate workflows without leaving your desk.

⌨

Shortcut Recorder

Record any key combination or chained sequence visually. FinNode normalises modifier ordering and stores sequences ready to replay.

🔍

Quick Launcher

Summon the launcher with Alt+Space or Ctrl+K from anywhere. Search nodes and fire actions without touching the board.

📌

Persistent Overlay Board

The desktop board remembers its size and position across restarts. Move, resize, and it stays exactly where you left it.

Node Board

A visual map of your work

The draggable board overlays your desktop at a low z-order so it's always accessible without getting in the way. Nodes link to targets; the SVG graph renders connections live as you work.

→Draggable, resizable transparent overlay
→SVG link rendering with live connections
→Click-through mode outside node bounds
→Auto-layout and node cloning support
