macOS Menu Bar App

Know when you're
about to lose it

Meltdown reads your typing patterns and your MacBook's accelerometer to tell you when frustration is building — before you rage-quit, fire off that email, or smash your keyboard. A real-time stress signal for your menu bar.

How it reads you

Your keyboard and sensors tell on you

You don't notice when frustration builds. Your typing and your laptop do.

Speed changes

Calm typing has a rhythm. Frustrated typing gets faster, erratic, and intense. Meltdown detects when your pace breaks from baseline.

Delete patterns

When you're frustrated, you delete more. Mashing backspace, rewriting the same line, holding delete to nuke a paragraph — these are frustration signatures.

Undo spirals

Spamming Cmd+Z, attempting to force-quit, reaching for Cmd+Q — these aren't normal workflow. They're signals that you're losing the thread.

Burst patterns

A long pause followed by explosive typing. Caps lock for emphasis. These are the moments right before you send something you'll regret.

Physical intensity

On MacBooks, Meltdown reads the accelerometer to detect desk slams and hard key pounding. Your laptop feels the rage your keyboard can't measure.
