About Paste

Overview

Paste is a clipboard manager for Mac, iPhone, and iPad that remembers everything you copy. It keeps your clipboard history organized, searchable, and in sync across your devices, so anything you copied returns in seconds, whether you need it an hour later or a year later.

Nothing you copy is ever lost. Paste saves everything you copy with no limit, and you stay in control with rules that make Paste ignore passwords and other sensitive apps.

Key Benefits

  • Everything you copy is saved automatically with no limit on history size.
  • Search your entire clipboard history to find any item in seconds.
  • Pin the snippets, links, colors, and templates you reuse all the time.
  • Your clipboard follows you across Mac, iPhone, and iPad, always in sync.
  • Connect your clipboard history to AI tools like Claude, Codex, and Cursor for context.
  • Clipboard data stays on your device and in your private iCloud, never on Paste's servers.

How It Works

Download Paste for Mac and start a 7-day free trial that unlocks every feature on all your devices, iPhone and iPad included. Copy anything as you normally would, and Paste stores it in your searchable clipboard history. Search for any item, pin the ones you reuse often, and paste them back wherever you work.

Use Cases

  • Developers copy one code snippet after another without losing the first, keeping snippets saved and organized.
  • Designers keep colors, icons, and links always a keystroke away.
  • Writers never lose a paragraph they copied but forgot to paste back.
  • Teams share pinboards to keep everyone in sync.
  • Lawyers and support specialists retrieve previously copied text quickly throughout their workday.

Why Choose This Product
