Everything you copy, one shortcut away.

Copydrop is a clipboard manager for Mac. It keeps a history of everything you copy — text, links, images, files — and pastes any of it back exactly as it was. Beautifully designed, built for the keyboard, private by design.

Three keystrokes from copy to paste

  1. Copy like you always do. Copydrop quietly keeps everything — tagged with the app it came from, searchable forever.
  2. Press ⌘⇧C and type. A panel slides up from the bottom of your screen. Search your entire history, full-text, instantly.
  3. Hit Enter — it's pasted. Straight into the app you were just working in. ⌘1–⌘9 pastes without thinking.

Built to be trusted, not noticed

  • Private, without compromise. Your history never leaves your Mac. No cloud, no account, no telemetry.
  • Passwords stay out. Anything copied from a password manager is never captured.
  • Pastes exactly what you copied. Copy objects in Figma, paste objects — not a flattened screenshot.
  • Instant full-text search. Type three letters; Copydrop searches your whole history as fast as you can type.
  • Everything, not just text. Text, links, images, files and design objects — each card shows the app it came from.
  • Invisible until you need it. No Dock icon, no notifications. The panel appears when you call it.

Questions, answered

Does my clipboard data ever leave my Mac? No. There is no server, no account and no sync. Your history is a local database on your disk.

Doesn't macOS already have clipboard history? It does — Spotlight keeps a short, basic history. Copydrop is for people who copy for a living: unlimited history, instant search, pinning, rich previews. Full comparison.

How is this different from Paste? Paste is a subscription — $29.99 a year — while Copydrop is $8.99, once. Full comparison.
