Features

Everything you need,
nothing you don't

A lightweight menu bar app that stays out of your way until you need it.

🔒

100% local & private

Your clipboard history never leaves your Mac. No cloud, no account, no servers — everything is stored on-device only.

🔍

Instant search

Search through your entire clipboard history as you type. Results update instantly — no waiting.

📌

Pin important clips

Pin items you use frequently so they always stay at the top, even after clearing history.

Obsidian sync

Every copied item is automatically saved to your Obsidian vault as a note or daily log.

🪶

Truly lightweight

Lives in your menu bar. No dock icon. No background bloat. Launches in under a second.
