- Worth noticing
- The page offers four sound packs and an on-page keyboard for testing them before downloading.
Field notes
The homepage combines a playable key grid with four named sound profiles: Velvet is described as deep and smooth, Walnut as warm and tactile, Porcelain as crisp and clicky, and Signature as giving each key its own character. TipTap is presented as a menu-bar utility rather than a full typing replacement. The page identifies the download as a preview build and notes that it is not notarized.
