tpaste is a next-generation clipboard manager built for developers, writers, designers, and everyone who copies and pastes all day.
Press ⇧⌘V anywhere on your Mac to instantly browse your clipboard history. Navigate with arrow keys, paste with Enter, jump to any item with ⌘1–⌘9, or just click. Don't like the hotkey?
Pick your own — every shortcut in tpaste is rebindable.
WHAT TPASTE CAPTURES
Plain text, rich text, images (with OCR — search the text inside screenshots), files, URLs (with auto-fetched page titles), and hex colors. Each item remembers which app it came from. Smart
auto-tags applied on capture: code, json, sql, email, url, uuid, ipv4, hex, base64, markdown, and more.
PASTE, YOUR WAY
• Click or Enter to paste instantly
• ⌥⏎ in the overlay to paste as plain text
• ⌥⇧⌘V anywhere to plain-paste the current clipboard
• Right-click any card for Paste / Copy / Copy as Plain Text / Pin / Favorite / Delete / Transform & Copy
• Press "?" inside the overlay for the keyboard cheat sheet
FIVE OVERLAY LAYOUTS
Bottom strip, Top strip, Left edge column, Right edge column, or Center Spotlight-style. Each layout adapts the card design. Plus Small / Medium / Large size scaling.
FUZZY SEARCH & STABLE PINS
Type to filter — "fzbz" finds "fizz buzz", "ahf" finds "Ahmed Farag". Mix in operators like app:Slack, kind:image, tag:json, before:yesterday. Results ranked by relevance. Pin
frequently-used clips to the top so they never fall off, regardless of how much you copy after them.
PASSWORD-MANAGER SAFE
tpaste honors the nspasteboard.org concealed-type convention used by 1Password, Bitwarden, KeePassXC, Enpass, and Proton Pass — sensitive copies are auto-skipped and never enter your
history. On-device secret detection flags API keys, JWTs, and tokens from major cloud, AI, and developer platforms — masked in previews until you reveal.
SNIPPETS THAT THINK
Reusable text templates with dynamic variables: {{date:yyyy-MM-dd}}, {{time:HH:mm}}, {{clipboard}}, {{uuid}}, {{random:16}}, and {{cursor}} — cursor lands here after expansion (perfect for
HTML tags and function bodies). Set a trigger like ;sig and tpaste expands it system-wide.
20-OP TRANSFORM PIPELINE
UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, camelCase, snake_case, kebab-case, Trim, Reverse, Base64 ⇄, URL ⇄, HTML ⇄, Hex ⇄, JSON Pretty/Minify, ROT13, Slugify, Strip HTML. Apply from the dashboard
chip rail or right-click any overlay card → Transform & Copy.
ORGANIZE LIKE A PRO
Workspaces group clips by project. Pinboards are sub-collections. Smart Folders are saved searches. Per-workspace dedupe — re-copying moves items to the top, preserves tags / favorites /
pinboard membership.
POWER FEATURES
Customizable hotkeys, auto-trim whitespace, auto-paste-on-click toggle, diff view, multi-paste merge, cycle paste (⌥⌘V), drag clips into any app, syntax highlighting
(Swift/JS/Python/SQL/Shell/JSON), Markdown rendering, link previews, animated capture icon, redesigned Linear-style sidebar with live count badges.
PRIVACY FIRST

unlimited). 8 themes including Developer mode (mono font + mint accent), Catppuccin, Dracula, Nord, Gruvbox.
ALWAYS FREE
Free doesn't mean less powerful. tpaste was built by a developer, for the developer community — proof that the best tools don't need a price tag. Forever free.
