What it helps with
Cliplane stays focused on the jobs a clipboard utility should do well: capture useful copies, help you find them again, and give you control over what is kept.
Search recent text, images, links, code, and file-list clips from a compact native Mac utility.
Pin useful clips, copy them again, paste normally, or paste text without original formatting.
Use the menu bar icon or the configurable keyboard shortcut when Cliplane is running.
Exclude password managers, private tools, or client apps so future copies from them are rejected before saving.
Remove individual clips, clear scoped history, and manage local storage without needing an account.
Use local backup and recovery controls designed to avoid showing clipboard contents in manifests or diagnostics.
We built Cliplane because we wanted a clipboard app that felt native, quiet, fast, and respectful of private Mac workflows.
Read the Cliplane privacy pageCliplane does not require cloud sync or an account for core clipboard history.
Clipboard payloads are protected locally with app encryption material stored through macOS Keychain APIs.
Diagnostics use operation names, statuses, counts, and safe metadata instead of raw clipboard text, image bytes, file names, or copied URLs.
Feedback email drafts include app, version, and macOS context, and explicitly do not attach clipboard history.
Search through recent clipboard items and preview what you copied without returning to the original app or document.
Open Cliplane with Command+Option+V, move through results, and reuse selected clips without making the clipboard app the center of your day.

Cliplane is part of NextPage's product-building work: practical software, narrow enough to stay useful, and careful enough for workflows that may contain private text.
