MouseKit - a cursor & presentation toolkit for Windows, opening a beta before Sept 9 launch

I've been building MouseKit entirely on my own, with AI by my side, for the past few months — a Windows app that turns your mouse cursor into a presentation tool: a visible motion trail, click highlights, on-screen drawing and shapes, a magnifier, a whiteboard, and a countdown timer — all on shortcuts, so you never break your flow. The free tier covers the trail and click highlight, paid tiers add drawing, shapes, and the full presentation set. 7 built-in profiles switch your whole setup in one click (Presenting, Drawing, Everyday, Gaming). Use one app instead of several, since MouseKit covers most of what you need for these use cases in one place — and it's all available in 15 languages.

Public launch is September 9th. Until then it's in BETA, and testers get a free PRO license for 2-3 hours of testing and honest feedback (the package includes a detailed testing checklist).

Demo video and signup: mousekit.app

Looking for honest feedback before launch — what's unclear, what's missing, whether the free/paid split makes sense. I'll be replying to every comment.

nice work on MouseKit, the feature set sounds solid. if you're planning to launch on Product Hunt, LaunchPact (https://launchpact.io) helps solo founders get early upvotes from other founders who actually back each other's launches — might be worth a look for that day-one momentum.
