One-time purchase clipboard manager for Mac

Never lose what you just copied.

Your Mac's clipboard remembers only the last thing you copied. Kopipe saves everything you copy — text, images, files, URLs — automatically, so you can search and paste it back anytime.

Free for 3 days, all features included. The last 24 hours of history stay free after that. Unlock older history with a one-time $5.99, no subscription.

Sound familiar?

Give your clipboard a real memory.

Copy something new, and the old one's gone

Your Mac's clipboard holds only one item at a time. Reopening the same window just to copy it again adds up.

Too many trips back and forth in forms

Name, address, phone number — pasting each one usually means switching back to the source every time. Quick Paste ends that.

Where was that screenshot again?

If you can't remember what a screenshot said, you can't find it. Kopipe's OCR makes the text inside images searchable too.

How it works

Copy · Search · Paste

1
Timeline overview

Copy

Text, images, URLs, and files are saved automatically as you copy.

2
Search screen

Search

Search by keyword or filter by label to find any clip in seconds.

3
Keyboard navigation

Paste

Open the timeline with ⇧⌘V and paste with Enter. Quick Paste (⌘1–9) also works straight from the menu bar icon — no need to open the timeline at all.

Feature highlights

Everything you need for your clipboard, in one place.

Clipboard history

Saves text, images, files, and URLs as you copy. Skips duplicates automatically.

Search & OCR

Search across text, URLs, filenames, and the text inside images and PDFs — all at once.

Labels

Create colored labels, apply multiple to one clip, and filter instantly.

Pinboard

Pin frequently used clips to protect them from auto-deletion, across multiple boards.

Quick Paste

Paste any of the last 9 clips with ⌘1–9, or with one click from the menu bar icon. No need to open the timeline.

Fixed Paste

Assign ⌃⌘1–3 to your most-used text — signatures, addresses, boilerplate. Always ready, instantly.

Use cases

Small everyday friction, gone.

Speed up email and chat replies

Save greetings, signatures, and thank-you templates to Fixed Paste. Paste any of them instantly with ⌃⌘1–3.

Find that screenshot again

Receipts, confirmation numbers, QR codes — you don't need to remember what they said. Kopipe searches the text inside images too.

Smoother research and drafting

Quotes, reference URLs, draft text — copying is enough to keep them in your history. Search finds them again anytime.

Faster online forms and checkout

Name, address, phone number — paste them in sequence with ⌘1, ⌘2, ⌘3. Filling out web forms gets a lot faster.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it free?

Yes. The 3-day free trial includes all features. After the trial, basic features like search, labels, and paste remain available, but accessing history older than 24 hours requires the Pro upgrade ($5.99 one-time).

Where is my data stored?

Only on your Mac's local storage. Nothing is ever sent to any server, and Kopipe works without an internet connection.

What happens to my history if I switch Macs?

Export a backup from Settings, then import it on your new Mac to restore your history, labels, and pinboards. This is free and works even after your trial has ended.

Will it save copies from my password manager?

You can exclude specific apps. Kopipe also automatically detects and skips credit card numbers and OTP codes, so sensitive data is filtered out by default.

Does it work on iPhone or iPad?

No. Kopipe is macOS only.

Can I move my data to a new Mac?

Yes. Export your entire history to a single file from Settings, then import it on your new Mac (v1.11 or later). Duplicate clips are skipped automatically.

Can I paste with just the Enter key?

Grant Kopipe permission under System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility, and a single Enter key pastes directly into the active app. Without this permission, clips are only copied to the clipboard, so you'll need to press ⌘V yourself.

Is it a subscription?

No. It's a one-time purchase of $5.99. No monthly or annual fees — all future updates are included.

How is it different from Paste?

Mainly pricing and privacy. Kopipe is a $5.99 one-time purchase that runs fully offline; Paste is a subscription (with a lifetime option) that syncs via iCloud. See the comparison table above for details.
