Keyflow vs Pier

Free reference for keyboard shortcuts in 52 apps, the most-viewed n8n workflow templates, top MCP servers from the official registry and official Claude skills, all sourced from vendor docs and registries. Pier turns a Nextcloud, NAS, SFTP or NFS folder into a normal Windows drive letter, with a block cache, resumable transfers and an offline mode, so every Windows program can open the files. Both are listed in Productivity.

Side by side

What it is

Keyflow
Shortcuts, n8n templates & MCP servers from official sources
Pier
Mount WebDAV, SFTP and NFS folders as Windows drive letters

Best for

Keyflow
Developers, automation builders and power users who use n8n, Claude or MCP, or who just want the right keyboard shortcut fast.
Pier
Small offices, home users with a NAS and IT admins on Windows

Problem it solves

Keyflow
Shortcut lists, MCP servers and n8n templates are scattered across vendor help pages, registries and template sites, and many third-party lists are outdated or wrong.
Pier
The WebDAV client built into Windows limits files to about 50 MB and loses the drive when the connection drops

How it works

Keyflow
One searchable index where every entry is pulled from its official source, with Windows and Mac keys side by side, install configs for MCP servers, and printable cheat sheets.
Pier
A real drive letter over WebDAV, SFTP or NFS with a block cache, resumable transfers and offline mode

Stands out for

Keyflow
Everything is sourced from official docs and registries rather than scraped from other lists, and it publishes original stats, such as 42% of the 3,000 most-viewed n8n templates now using an LLM.
Pier
Runs as a Windows service: drives exist for every user and survive reboots; Pier Backup included

What is Pier?

Pier turns a remote folder into a normal Windows drive letter. It speaks WebDAV (Nextcloud, ownCloud, Synology, QNAP, Apache, IIS), SFTP (any SSH server, password or OpenSSH keys) and NFSv3, and uses the open-source Dokany driver, installed for you by the setup program, so Explorer, Office, backup tools and scripts work on the drive as on a local disk.
