About Ueli
Ueli is a cross-platform keystroke launcher. Typing in its main window searches for items, which can be navigated with arrow keys and launched with Enter, with additional actions available through Ctrl+K or Cmd+K and favorites for frequently used items.
It offers extensions such as application search, file search, calculator, and converters that can be enabled and configured in settings. Manually downloaded Windows and macOS builds are unsigned, so the operating systems may block installation, and global hotkeys may not work in Linux Wayland sessions.
