Lumous keeps a Windows or Mac desktop naturally active while you step away - tested against Time Doctor and Hubstaff with recorded full-workday runs. It coordinates mouse, keyboard, clicks, scrolling, tabs, and apps, with Safe Click Zones, Silent Keys, and granular activity controls.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Umair, the maker of Lumous.
I built Lumous because activity trackers often reward constant mouse and keyboard input instead of the work someone actually delivers. Reading, calls, planning, and taking a break can all look like inactivity.
A basic mouse jiggler changes one signal. Lumous coordinates natural mouse movement, keyboard activity, safe clicks, scrolling, browser tabs, and open apps in changing work-like patterns.
The safeguards are a core part of the product:
- Safe Click Zones keep clicks inside areas you choose
- Silent Keys create keyboard activity without typing random text
- Basic Mode starts everything in seconds
- Advanced Mode gives you control over every activity signal
- Global shortcuts stop everything immediately
- App switching only uses open, non-minimized windows
The results are recorded. Our Time Doctor 2 test ran for 10h 22m with zero unusual-activity reports, zero identical screenshots, and zero low-activity intervals. Our Hubstaff test ran for 8 hours with 54% average activity, 92% focus time, and zero unusual-activity instances.

Lumous runs on Windows 10/11 and macOS Intel/Apple Silicon. Every feature is included at $5/month or $48/year.
Code PRODUCT-HUNT takes 10% off your first 3 months. Valid until August 14.
I'm curious, what tracker are you running, and what would you want to see tested next?
