Your clipboard, with a memory.
A fast clipboard manager for Windows. Clipboard history, search, snippets, folders, pins, images, quick paste with Ctrl+Alt+V and optional encryption.
Quick paste, anywhere

Snippets
Save text you type again and again, with keywords and placeholders like {date} and {clipboard}.
Pins and folders
Keep the clips that matter. Pinned clips and clips in folders are never cleaned up.
Text and pictures
Every kind of clip gets its own preview: links, colours, code with line numbers, file paths, images.
Private by default
Passwords, API keys and card numbers are spotted and skipped. Optional encryption for the rest.
