Anatomy of a hint

• The bounding box is the rectangular outline of the detected UI element.
• The hint is the label.
• The target is where the mouse action is executed.

The target is placed in the center of the bounding box by default but you can move it.

Neverclick prioritizes letters in the center of the keyboard.

However, the Key Priority Map is interactive and fully customizable.

No config files.

Set up your hotkeys in a GUI.

A hotkey triggers a Tool or an Action.

• Neverclick Tools are interactive overlays (e.g. the Left Click Tool, the Sticky Hints Tool).
• Neverclick Actions are one-off commands that execute immediately (e.g. Scroll, Move Window).

Keybinds are what you can do while a Tool is active. Configure them visually on an interactive virtual keyboard.

Vision Modes

Neverclick Vision is a computer vision system which finds UI elements based on raw pixel data.

• It's extremely fast (instantaneous even on older hardware)
• It's able to detect text quite well so it's excellent for editing text and coding
• It supports a full screen mode
• Detection settings can be tuned

Neverclick Vision is the default vision mode.

Clairvoyance uses operating system accessibility APIs to find UI elements.

• It's significantly slower than Neverclick Vision
• It can be unpredictable
• It only works on the foreground window (no full screen mode is supported)
• It doesn't detect text in text editors
• Detection settings cannot be tuned
• However, it may produce cleaner bounding boxes for buttons in certain apps

Clairvoyance makes for a good backup to Neverclick Vision.

Press [ when the hints are up to switch into Clairvoyance mode.

Grid mode spaces hints evenly across the screen. It's useful for clicking blank areas, like right-clicking the desktop.

Press ; when the hints are up to switch into grid mode.

FAQ

Is Neverclick free?

Yes. It's free to download and use. There are no accounts, subscriptions, or trials.

Is it Windows only?

For now, yes. Linux, macOS, and Windows ARM (Snapdragon) aren't supported yet.

Does Neverclick have multimonitor support?

Yes.

Will it work on my 4K monitor? How about 8K?

Yes, and yes.

Does Neverclick work with non-English languages?

Yes. Hints use your keyboard's language. The settings UI itself is English-only for now.

Does it support Dvorak?

Yes. Dvorak, Colemak, and other alternative keyboard layouts are natively supported, as long as the layout is set in Windows.

Is there a portable version?

No. Neverclick installs to Program Files because Windows requires that for it to register as an accessibility tool. This is what lets it perform mouse actions on apps running as administrator.

How fast is the computer vision system?

It's instantaneous. There should be no perceptible delay upon activating it, even on 10 year old hardware.

How accurate is the computer vision system?

It's really good, but it does hallucinate occasionally. I'll continue to improve it.

Do I need a powerful GPU to run Neverclick?

No.

How much disk space does Neverclick need?

About 40mb.

How much memory does Neverclick use?

It depends on your setup: how many monitors you have, their resolution, and your display scaling. On a typical 1080p monitor it's around 200mb. More monitors or higher resolutions will use more.

Does Neverclick use CPU cycles when it's not being used?

No. Neverclick doesn't run in a continuous loop. It just sits there and only runs when you activate it. Its CPU usage should be at 0% at all times, except for when you actually use it.

Is Neverclick powered by ChatGPT or any other AI service?

No. Neverclick's computer vision system runs entirely on your own machine. It's not built on ChatGPT, Claude, or any online AI service.

Is my data being sent anywhere?

No. Everything runs locally on your machine. Nothing you do ever leaves your computer.

Does Neverclick require an internet connection to work?

No. It requires an internet connection to install, but once installed, it runs without one. It's 100% offline.

Where is the code?

The source isn't hosted here right now. This repo is for issues and releases.

Is this still being maintained?

Yes. It's my daily driver, so I have every incentive to keep improving it and fixing bugs as I hit them.

How much of this was made with AI?

It's about 95% human made (created by me) and 5% AI. I've worked on Neverclick for many years, predating the AI era. I only started using AI in March 2026. The percentage written by AI will increase over time, but I'm careful not to let it spaghettify the codebase. Additionally, the artwork was predominantly made in Blender (by me) and I created the logo in a vector graphics editor.

Is there a backstory to Neverclick?

Yes. I made Neverclick when I was suffering from RSI.

Do you still suffer from RSI?

No. I recovered years ago and I owe it to this software.

What is the logo supposed to be?

It's meant to be an abstract mouse cursor but also the letter "N" when you connect the dot.
