Features

Everything your clipboard should have been

A fast, keyboard-first companion that lives quietly in your menu bar — until you need it.

Summon with ⌘⇧V

A Spotlight-style panel floats over any app. Search, pick, paste — no window switching, no mouse hunting. Fully remappable to your own combination.

Auto-classified as you copy

Text, links, code, emails, images, files, colors, numbers — every clip is recognized the moment it lands, and one click filters the list by type.

Search everything

Instant full-text search across your entire history. That snippet you copied three weeks ago? Found in milliseconds.

Pin & folders

Pin what matters; file the rest into folders. Multi-select to copy all, merge into one clip, or export as text.

Built-in screenshot

Hit ⌃⌘A, drag a region, and the capture lands straight in your history — ready to paste or save.

Queue paste

Line up several clips and feed them out one by one with ⏎. Perfect for moving batches between apps.

Workflow

From chaos to a tidy library

Copying is cheap. Keeping the good stuff shouldn't take effort.

  • Folders. Right-click any clip to file it into a project folder.
  • Merge. Combine selected clips into a single, ready-to-paste block.
  • Export. Save whole folders as plain text or Markdown in one click.
Privacy

Your clipboard is nobody's business

ClipSeed is local-first by design. No server, no account, nothing to sync.

  • Local database. History lives in SQLite on your disk. Zero network calls, ever.
  • Sensitive filter. Strings that look like passwords or API keys are ignored automatically.
  • Excluded apps. Pause monitoring for password managers, banking apps, anything you choose.
  • No telemetry. We can't see what you copy. We never could.
Keyboard-first

Your hands never leave the keys

ClipSeed is built for speed — every action has a shortcut, and the main ones are remappable.

FAQ

Questions, answered

ClipSeed runs on macOS 13 Ventura or later. Apple Silicon builds ship today, and an Intel build is on the roadmap.
Never. ClipSeed stores history in a local SQLite database and makes zero network requests. There's no account and no cloud sync.
No. You pay once and own the current major version, including all of its updates. We keep the price fair on purpose.
Clips that look like passwords, tokens or API keys are skipped automatically. You can also exclude specific apps — like password managers — so their copies are never recorded.
A license covers one Mac. Each additional Mac requires its own license.
You get the full app free for 7 days, and purchases come with a 7-day money-back guarantee — no questions asked.

Start copying. We'll remember everything.

A quiet productivity upgrade. Your future self will say thanks every time you press ⌘⇧V.
