Ortu
The clipboard manager for people who copy-paste for a living
Ortu remembers everything you copy — text, images, files — so you can paste it again instantly, from any app. Full-text search, paste stack, secret masking with encryption, smart auto-grouping. 100% local, no account, open source. macOS, Windows & Linux.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Abhijith, maker of Ortu.
Ortu started as a daily frustration: as an engineer I live in copy-paste.. deploy commands, snippets, tokens, URLs.. and my "system" was a giant text file I scrolled through a hundred times a day. Every switch broke my flow.
I work across Mac and Windows, and nothing out there fit: built-in clipboards are too shallow, and most third-party managers were either bloated or abandoned. So I built the one I wished existed.
What makes Ortu different:
🔒 Local-first, actually — no account, no telemetry, no cloud. Everything lives in a SQLite DB on your machine. It's MIT-licensed open source, so you can verify that. 🥞 Paste stack — queue several clips, then paste them one-by-one, in order, into any app. Killer for repetitive form-filling and terminal work. 🔎 Instant full-text search (SQLite FTS5) over everything you've copied — text, images, files. 🕵️ Secret masking — detected passwords/keys/tokens are masked and encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM). 🧠 Smart auto-grouping — URLs, code, JSON, shell commands sort themselves. 🪶 Native & tiny — Tauri (Rust) + SvelteKit, one small binary per platform. No Electron.
It's free on macOS, Windows, and Linux. I'd genuinely love feedback — feature requests, bug reports, or just how you manage your clipboard today. I'll be here all day! 🙏
