Capabilities

Everything you need,
nothing you don't.

Five focused features that keep the overlay small and the workflow fast.

Smart history

Automatically groups clips by type, deduplicates entries, and keeps a tidy timeline so you never lose track.

Fuzzy search

Find any clip with a partial query. Results update instantly as you type, ranked by recency and relevance.

Pin & protect

Pin critical clips so they survive history clears. All data lives on-device — nothing ever leaves your machine.

Snippets vault

Save reusable phrases, boilerplate templates, and commands. Paste them in one keystroke from anywhere.

Export history

Dump your full clipboard history to JSON or CSV with one click. Useful for archiving, audits, or migration.
