About Cliptop

Cliptop is a clipboard history app for Mac, iPhone and iPad. It saves copied text, links, images, files and colors, and lets users search the history and paste items back without leaving the app they are working in, including from the Mac's notch area.

Pinboards group reusable links, snippets, screenshots and brand assets so frequently used items stay close. On-device OCR extracts text from screenshots and images where the text is not selectable, and clips sync across a user's devices. The vendor describes the app as private and local-first.

Cliptop is a proprietary product with a blog, changelog and license recovery page on its site. It targets Mac power users who copy and paste prompts, snippets and links throughout the day; pricing details are on its pricing page.
