Pasted showing a Factory Spaghetti Bin and its collection of delightfully over-engineered clips

Factory Spaghetti · 27 clips

The factory
must grow.
Your clipboard
already did.

Belt math. Train-intersection malpractice. One completely normal mining-speed modifier. Pasted keeps every critical fragment organized while the weekend quietly leaves the chat.

I did mean to
turn you on.

Enable exactly the clipboard system you want. Bins, Notes, Pinning, Protection, Concealment, Revision History, and the gloriously optional machinery beyond them all stay independently controlled.

Pasted History showing hundreds of clips and a selected command with its attached note

History · 684 clips

Your clipboard
has a past.
We kept
the evidence.

Commands that ran for six hours. Links that seemed important at 2 a.m. The sentence that finally behaved. Search 684 clips without reconstructing the crime scene.

Pasted showing four notes attached to a suspicious production hotfix from yesterday

Tentacle Timeline Repair · 4 notes

Leave a note.
Save the timeline.
Blame yesterday.

Yesterday’s production hotfix is tomorrow’s archaeological dig. Attach the warning, the hamster count, and the exact century nobody should deploy from.

An exploded close-up of Pasted showing an active six-item Copy Queue and its next paste target

Copy Queue · 6 in buffer

Paste in
formation.
Chaos,
queued.

Collect a sequence once, then send it back out in precisely the right order. Ideal for forms, deployments, and rituals whose steps must not be improvised.

An exploded view of Pasted showing six restorable versions of a suspicious production hotfix

Revision History · 6 versions

Purple won.
Try again yesterday.

Every edit leaves a restorable version behind. Compare the panic, rewind past Bernard’s approval, and return to the timeline where Purple Tentacle never noticed.

Pasted recognizing Shell Commands among clips from Terminal, Hyper, and other source applications

Content Types · Shell Command

What it is.
What it isn’t.

A command is not prose, even when it contains a desperate whisper. Pasted recognizes links, code, paths, and shell commands—then remembers which app committed the act.

Pasted editing a Smart Bin named Piracy as a Service beside automatically matched ScummVM clips

Smart Bin · 18 matches

Behind you!
A three-headed
Smart Bin.

Set the rules once. Pasted automatically corrals every rubber chicken, three-headed monkey sighting, and vocabulary-dependent duel into the correct corner of the Caribbean.

An exploded Pasted Insights dashboard showing 684 clips, source composition, Content Types, and library statistics

Insights · Current History

Your clipboard
has entered its
analytics era.

See what fills History, where it came from, and which Content Types have quietly colonized it. Useful composition and capture trends, without phoning home.

A monumental close-up of Pasted App Lock settings with authentication, biometric unlock, and automatic locking controls

App Lock · Authentication and Capture

Some things
should stay between
you and ⌘V.

Require authentication before showing your history. Unlock with Touch ID or Apple Watch, then auto-lock before the person behind you learns why banana handset procurement was pinned.

Pinned · Protected · Concealed

Keep it close.
Lock it down.
Pretend it

Pin what matters. Protect what absolutely cannot disappear. Conceal what should not be visible over somebody’s shoulder during the quarterly review.

Clips, Bins, notes, revisions, automations, and the window arrangement you spent forty minutes perfecting. One recovery-ready snapshot. Credentials remain safely in their system stores.

An exploded Pasted Transformations library showing reusable AI-assisted recipes, deterministic local transforms, and the selected semantic plan

AI-Assisted Transform · Revision 4

Say what you mean.
Reuse what it understood.

Describe the outcome once. Pasted plans a reusable AI-assisted transform, remembers every semantic step, and keeps the deterministic stuff local and replayable.

The encore reel

Small features.
Excessive close-ups.

The details that don’t need a monument still deserve one last dramatic angle.

An abstract exploded view of Pasted Search History showing nine reusable searches and their wonderfully suspicious usage counts

Search History

Find it again.
Question it later.

Rerun the useful searches. Remove the incriminating ones. Quietly accept that “Gary” has been searched 38 times and the situation is not improving.SEARCH / RECALL / DELETE
An exploded close-up of Pasted Analysis settings showing its six-stage local analysis sequence and OCR status

Local Analysis

It read the screenshot.
It told no one.

Capture, inspect, classify, extract, index, and suggest without asking a server to help. OCR makes images searchable, then politely reports that seventeen contained absolutely nothing useful.CAPTURE / EXTRACT / SEARCH
An abstract close-up of Pasted's built-in CLI reference showing installation, history, search, notes, and revision commands

CLI

The GUI left.
The library stayed.

Search, organize, annotate, and restore the same local library from a shell. Add JSON when the clipboard situation has progressed beyond human supervision.SEARCH / SCRIPT / --JSON
An abstract exploded view of Pasted Activity showing a local audit trail of important library events

Activity

Accountability.
Minus the creepy part.

See what changed without recording what was copied. The audit trail remembers the action, the outcome, and precisely when normal operations became negotiable.EVENT / OUTCOME / LOCAL

The Copycat Covenant

The cat captures clips. We don’t capture copycats.

Works for copycats.
Not for corporations.

Copycats are people, scripts, automations, and agents. Probably handsome ones, too. They share one private workspace with each other. Nobody else gets a copy—and certainly not us.

01

No cloud account

Pasted works without an identity, a sync account, or a hosted copy of your clipboard history. The core workspace lives where you do.

02

No telemetry

We do not measure engagement, inspect clipboard activity, or teach a dashboard how copycats behave. Your work is not our dataset.

03

No subscription

Pasted will not rent your own clipboard back to you. If it earns a place in your workflow, support is an endorsement—not an unlock.

04

Every copycat welcome

Humans use the app. Scripts use the CLI. Automations and agents use the tools you explicitly give them. Everyone shares the same local library.

If Pasted earns a permanent place in your workflow, put $9.99 behind its future.
