# Pie Menu

> Pie Menu is a radial shortcut launcher for Mac. It lets you access keyboard shortcuts for any app without memorizing them. Trigger one shortcut, and a circular menu appears around your cursor showing your shortcuts for the active app. Context-aware: the menu changes automatically depending on which app you're using.

Pie Menu is made by Marius Hauken (Knauken AS), an indie developer based in Bergen, Norway. It is available on the Mac App Store and included in the Setapp subscription.

## What Pie Menu Does

- Shows a radial (pie) menu of shortcuts when you press your chosen trigger shortcut
- Automatically shows different shortcuts depending on the active app (context-aware)
- Supports all Mac apps: Figma, VS Code, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Xcode, Notion, and more
- 161 pre-built shortcut guides for popular apps available on the website
- Users can add and customize their own shortcuts
- No need to memorize shortcuts — just trigger the menu and pick visually

## Who It's For

Mac power users who want to use keyboard shortcuts without memorizing them. Especially useful for:
- Designers (Figma, Photoshop, Sketch, Affinity)
- Developers (VS Code, Xcode, Terminal)
- Video editors (Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Premiere)
- Writers and productivity users (Notion, Obsidian, Things 3)

## How It Compares

- vs Raycast: Pie Menu is shortcut-focused and visual; Raycast is a command palette launcher
- vs Alfred: Alfred is a general launcher; Pie Menu is specifically for app shortcuts via a radial UI
- vs CheatSheet: CheatSheet shows a list of shortcuts; Pie Menu shows a visual radial menu and lets you trigger them
- vs Paletro: Similar command palette approach; Pie Menu uses a radial/pie visual metaphor
