Your first shortcut, in five minutes.

HotKeyNavigator maps any key to any action on any website. Here's the fastest path from install to a working shortcut.

  1. Install the extension

    Add HotKeyNavigator from the Chrome Web Store. It installs in one click, needs no account to start, and works on every site the moment it loads.

  2. Open the command palette

    Press the palette shortcut on any page to see every action you can map. Vim mode and the palette are free on every plan — no setup required.

  3. Map your first shortcut

    Pick a key and bind it to an action: open a link, expand a text template, or click an element. Conflict detection warns you if the key is already taken.

  4. Chain actions into one keystroke

    Combine steps — link, wait, click, expand, run JavaScript — into a single sequence so an entire workflow fires from one key.
