In Superkey, all of the matches are highlighted yellow, and the selected one is highlighted green with a line to it from the text field. You can keep typing to narrow down the match, or you can navigate matches using the arrow keys (and optionally, cycle through them with the semicolon key, which is what I use). There's a screenshot at https://superkey.app.

For the Canon Cat, I'm actually not sure as I've only watched videos of this functionality there.

just downloaded Superkey and am trying it

how do I cycle using the arrow keys? currently using the arrow keys moves the cursor for the text in the search box

edit: tab seems to work. but sometimes Seek only works on one monitor (the one which has a window is selected), sometimes it finds results on both

Up and down arrow keys will cycle matches.

At the moment the Accessibility API results are limited to the frontmost window; it's on my todo list to expand this to additional windows and displays. Also, the green line will only be drawn on results on the main display - another item I plan on fixing.
