For our commercial Windows and MacOS application, we have implemented a global keyboard, mouse listener, using Python script. We bundle it as exe and package it into our app.
Will this be flagged by Anti-virus?

You can check if your code will be flagged by uploading it to Virus Total. Due to heuristics it is likely that any code which monitors all keyboard and mouse input will be flagged by at least one AV app.
You can also create a number of VMs to test popular AV software in. You will need one VM per AV app you want to test because they generally do not cooperate well. This allows you to test the real-time protection systems which VirusTotal generally doesn't (it's just a file scan, which may involve some execution but is mostly "passive").
