This subdomain hosts a Moonsugar project build to explain what it is and what it does, not as a finished hosted service. Verified behaviour and limits are in the project dossier.

Use Cases

Think Faster Than You Type?
We Built This For You.

From writers to traders, discover how SynapseDeck transforms the way you work.

For Writers

From Draft to Publish
in 10 Keystrokes

"I spend more time editing than writing. Every email takes 15 minutes of second-guessing."

SynapseDeck's Predictive Flow transforms your raw thoughts into polished prose as you type. Grammar fixes itself. Tone adjusts automatically. You write the idea — AI handles the craft.

3x faster first drafts reported by beta users
INPUT (raw typing):
hey john can u send me the report asap its urgent thx
OUTPUT (after Ctrl+Shift+F):
Hi John, Could you please send me the quarterly report at your earliest convenience? This is time-sensitive. Thank you!
For Developers

Code in Any Language.
Document in English.

"Documentation is always the last priority. My code works but nobody understands it."

Press Ctrl+Shift+X on any code block. SynapseDeck's Explain agent generates JSDoc, docstrings, or README sections instantly. Works with 40+ languages. Runs 100% locally.

87% reduction in documentation time
INPUT (code):
const calc = (a, b, op) => op === '+' ? a+b : op === '-' ? a-b : null;
OUTPUT (Ctrl+Shift+X):
/** * Performs arithmetic calculation * @param {number} a - First operand * @param {number} b - Second operand * @param {string} op - Operator ('+' or '-') * @returns {number|null} Result or null */
For Privacy

Invisible Encryption.
Zero Compromise.

"Every keystroke is logged by my employer's software. I have no privacy even on personal messages."

PGP Stealth Mode encrypts at the hardware level — before characters reach your computer. Screen displays decoy text. Only recipients with your key see the real message. RSA-4096 + AES-256.

100% undetectable by host-based keyloggers
WHAT YOU TYPE:
Meeting moved to Tuesday. Bring the contract.
WHAT KEYLOGGER SEES:
Thanks for the weather update! Sunny here too.
WHAT RECIPIENT SEES (with key):
Meeting moved to Tuesday. Bring the contract.

Meetings to Actions.
In Seconds, Not Hours.

"I spend 4 hours daily in meetings but struggle to remember action items. My assistant can't keep up."

Whisper transcribes meetings in real-time. AI extracts action items, decisions, and deadlines automatically. One keystroke sends summaries to Notion, Slack, or email. Your meetings finally have ROI.

4hrs saved weekly on meeting follow-ups
MEETING TRANSCRIPT:
"...so John will handle the Q3 report by Friday, and Sarah needs to review the contract before the 15th..."

Your Second Brain.
Vectorized & Encrypted.

Obsidian-style markdown notes that live on your keyboard. Every note is vectorized into your personal knowledge graph — AI understands context across all your documents.

Vector Memory

ChromaDB embeddings index every note. Ask questions across your entire knowledge base — AI retrieves relevant context automatically.

"What did I decide about the Q3 roadmap?"

PGP Encrypted

RSA-4096 encryption at rest. Only your key unlocks notes. Even if hardware is stolen — data is unreadable.

Selective Sharing

Choose what enters AI context. Toggle notes on/off from vectorization. Personal stays personal.

MCP Sync to Mobile

Your knowledge graph syncs via MCP protocol. Use Claude or ChatGPT on your phone — they access your keyboard's memory. Context follows you everywhere.

Your Data Never Leaves.
Ever.

Four layers of security that work silently in the background.

Hardware Isolation

Keystrokes never reach your computer in readable form. Processing happens inside the keyboard's isolated ARM chip. Even with root access to your PC, attackers see nothing.

ARM Cortex-A76 • Secure Boot • Signed Firmware

End-to-End Encryption

All data encrypted with RSA-4096 for key exchange and AES-256-GCM for symmetric encryption. Perfect forward secrecy — every session uses unique keys.

RSA-4096 • AES-256-GCM • ECDHE Key Exchange

Zero Cloud Dependency

No account required. No telemetry. No analytics. AI models run locally on Ollama. Your data literally cannot be sold because it never leaves your device.

Ollama Local • No Telemetry • Offline-First

Open Source Auditable

Every line of code is on GitHub. Security researchers can verify our claims. No security through obscurity — we trust our cryptography, not our secrets.

What Beta Testers Say
About SynapseDeck

Real feedback from developers, writers, and privacy advocates testing the pre-release version.

Finally, an AI keyboard that doesn't send my keystrokes to the cloud. The local processing is incredibly fast, and PGP Stealth Mode is a game-changer for my work.

MK
Marcus K. Security Researcher, Berlin

I replaced 5 browser extensions with one keyboard shortcut. Grammar, translation, code docs — all instant. My writing workflow has never been this smooth.

SL
Sarah L. Technical Writer, San Francisco

The n8n integration is brilliant. I automated my entire email triage workflow with hotkeys. What used to take 30 minutes now happens in 30 seconds.

Got Questions?
We Have Answers.

Do I need internet to use SynapseDeck?

No. All AI processing happens locally on the keyboard's Raspberry Pi. You only need internet for initial setup and optional cloud AI models (GPT, Claude). Local models work 100% offline.

Can my employer see what I type?

No. With PGP Stealth Mode, encryption happens at the hardware level — before keystrokes reach your computer. Even enterprise keyloggers see only decoy text.

What's the difference between editions?

Standard Edition is a stock Raspberry Pi 400/500 with our OS. Custom Edition adds aluminum heatsink case (+400MHz), dual microphones, speakers, E-Ink display bar, and 15-hour battery.

Can I use my own API keys?

Yes. BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) mode is always free. Add your OpenAI, Anthropic, or other API keys in the dashboard. Or use 100% local models with no keys needed.

Is it really open source?

Yes. SynapseDeck OS is MIT licensed. View the source, modify it, contribute back. Hardware schematics will be available for Custom Edition.
