Ghost Input — Record & replay your Mac
Ghost Input app icon Ghost Input · For Mac

Record it once. Let your Mac do it forever.

Ghost Input captures your keyboard and mouse, then replays the whole sequence on demand — for filling forms, testing software, gaming, or any task you'd rather never do by hand again.

Ghost Input main window: a recording's keyboard shortcut, playback speed and repeat settings, an app to open before playback, and an editable list of captured events.
Playback

Play it back exactly — or up to 10× faster.

Every recording keeps its original timing, right down to the pauses between actions. Speed it up or slow it down from 0.5× to 10×, loop it up to 100 times, and shape the timeline: reorder steps, switch any of them off, or drop in a precise delay.

  • Adjustable playback speed and repeat count
  • Insert exact delays and toggle individual steps

Anywhere

Trigger it from the menu bar or a shortcut.

Start and stop recording, or play any saved sequence, straight from the menu bar — without bringing the window forward. Give each recording its own global keyboard shortcut, or run it from Apple Shortcuts as one step in a larger automation.

  • Global start / stop / play shortcuts
  • Runs inside Apple Shortcuts workflows
