Everything you copy lands in the notch

Copy a color, a line of text, a link, or a snippet from anywhere and it drops into a board that slides down from your menu-bar notch. Each item becomes a card tagged with the app it came from and the moment you copied it, and color codes show up as the actual color. Group clips into tabs like Inbox, colors, and code, then search the whole history from the top.

  • Slides down from the menu-bar notch
  • Hex colors shown as live swatches
  • Each card tagged with its app and time
  • Sort into tabs, search the whole history

Drag anything in to keep it

Pull the board down from the notch and drop a file straight from Finder onto it. The moment you let go it lands in your Inbox as a new card, with a thumbnail, file size, and a timestamp. It is a fast way to set something aside without switching apps or hunting for the right folder.

  • Drag a file in straight from Finder
  • Green + badge marks the drop zone
  • New Inbox card the instant you drop
  • Thumbnail, file size, and timestamp

A shelf for files in motion

Drag a file out of Finder and a floating shelf appears to catch it, then keeps it in reach while you keep working. Drop in as many files as you need and they stack into one tidy tray instead of scattering across windows. Carry the whole set wherever it has to go, in a single move.

  • Catches files dragged out of Finder
  • Stacks many into one floating tray
  • Keeps each thumbnail and file size
  • Stays put while you keep working

Your history, one keystroke away

Every copy lands in a searchable list under your menu bar, with the most recent items pinned to number keys so you can paste the right one without leaving the keyboard. Highlight an entry to see its full contents in a side preview, along with where it came from, when you copied it, and how many times. Text, links, code, and images all live together.

  • Searchable list under the menu bar
  • Recent clips pinned to ⌘1–9
  • Side preview of the highlighted clip
  • Shows source, time, and copy count

Step through clips without lifting your hands

Open the clipboard panel and move through everything you have copied with the arrow keys, newest first, then press return to drop a clip into the field you were typing in. A row of short word completions sits across the top, so finishing a word or accepting a clip never takes you off the keyboard.

  • Arrow-key through clips, newest first
  • Return pastes into your active field
  • Word-completion chips across the top
  • Never leaves the keyboard

Proofread and rewrite in any app

As you write in any text field, a small marker appears beside your cursor. Open it and a card shows a cleaner version of your sentence with every change highlighted - here, a flagged spelling slip is fixed in place. Press Accept to apply the rewrite, or add the word to your dictionary so it is left alone next time.

  • An assist marker sits by your cursor
  • Rewrite with every change highlighted
  • Catches spelling slips in place
  • Accept, or add the word to your dictionary
