Clipboard manager for macOS which focus on one thing: system-like UX: Automatically saves your copy history and provides the easiest way to access it:simply press CMD+; and a menu will pop up at the input position for you to select from by pressing the number.
Hey there, Product Hunters!
I am Sintone Li. The CleanClip team has spent a long time polishing the user experience, and today we are finally officially launching here. I'm really excited.
During my college years, I was a heavy Ubuntu user, and I really liked the built-in clipboard feature of Ubuntu. It achieved simplicity to the extreme. Later, I switched to Mac, and I tried many excellent clipboard software such as Paste/Maccy/Copy'em/Raycast, but none of them could replace the position of the Ubuntu system clipboard in my heart:
1. Either they have too many unnecessary elements on the interface (Maccy, which I like, performs well in this regard, but I think CleanClip will surpass it, haha)
2. Or the clipboard history cannot appear at my input position (my eyes have to frequently move between the input position and the clipboard history, which means my creative thinking will be interrupted by this detail countless times)
So the outline of CleanClip began to emerge slowly. I hope it focuses on simplicity, and most importantly, it needs to appear at the input position. I asked in the community if anyone was willing to pay for this, and I received responses from more than 20 people in a short period of time. A week later, the first version of CleanClip was born. Today, CleanClip has gone through four rapid cycles of iteration. It has already accumulated a loyal user base, and I think it's time to meet more people now.
🎨 Design Concept
CleanClip is designed to be extremely simple and easy to use, and you won't see any unnecessary elements on its interface.
Also importantly, it always appears at the input position.
We hope that CleanClip gives people the feeling of using a built-in system function rather than a third-party app.
💰 Free or Paid
CleanClip is designed to be permanently free to try, so you can use it permanently without paying.
The only difference between the trial version and the paid version is that the trial version will prompt for payment after 25 uses every day.
If you are a light user, this will not affect your usage at all.
If you are a heavy user, I believe the value CleanClip will bring to you in the future will far exceed its price.
🎁 We offer a 50% limited-time discount for Product Hunt users who are willing to pay.
If you are a paid user of other management software, you can also get a 30% discount at a normal day. Just send your purchase receipt🎫 to my email📮 associated with the purchase.

🤯 Whenever I'm writing blogs, I end up losing my clipboard copied text. It's so annoying and CleanClip solves the exact problem. This is genius, thank you so much. Downloaded, activated, and now a happy user!
Liking what I’m seeing so far; however, it not being open-source, which is a big no for me and windows version.
All that aside. Great product. I will definitely be keeping an eye on it.
This is a very cool concept that I am surprised hasn't been done before. To copy and paste multiple things at once makes life a lot easier and makes finishing things much faster.
This is the best clipboard manager I've used, hands-down, and what makes it even better is that it not only has breadth in terms of features, but also depth.
Let me explain what I meant by depth. Many clipboard managers I've tried offer a lot of features on organizing clipboard items, accessing clipboard items, and even modifying certain clipboard items. However, none offer support on an application level.
If you copy something in a pro app like Final Cut Pro, such as a title clip, most clipboard managers can recognize that the copied item is from FCP, but that's it. They don't parse what it is that you copied, so you end up with a bunch of "Unknown" clipboard items from FCP (in the case of the app, Paste). If you don't label those FCP clipboard items right away, you will quickly lose track of what's what.
That's simply not very useful for me, a full-time video creator and editor working primarily in FCP.
CleanClip, in contrast, actually parses the data you copy from FCP, and show you what exactly you copied. It shows you the title of the clip you copied and so you can easily identify and search for specific clips you copied in the past.
This has been a huge game-changer for video editing for me, as I can easily save title plugins with my own settings and paste clip effects from one clip to another, among many other use cases.
This is what I meant by depth. After talking with the developer, it seems that he plans to implement in-depth support like this for other pro apps. I can see CleanClip being a huge workflow asset for people working in other pro apps.
On a more general level, I love the minimalist design of CleanClip, and the fact that the quick access window pops up at cursor position is just unmatched. I also appreciate how much the dev listens to user feedback and how he actually improves CleanClip based on feedback.
Lastly, being able to purchase a lifetime license is always a huge plus in my book.
Looking forward to what's yet to come for CleanClip!
I have been waiting for a simple clipboard manager like this and it now works like a charm. Congrats @sintone
CleanClip is simple and powerful, it's one of those workflow optimizers that you won't be able to do without once you get used to. The simplicity goes a long way -- Of all the clipboard managers out there, this one was easiest to integrate into my daily life. It's hardly distinguishable from the mac interface. And the power comes from two features: the "paste stack" (a great feature that allows you to keep things you frequently paste handy) and the incredible memory (CleanClip stores the last 800 things you've copied).
I can't imagine going back to ctrl+c/v now that I've tried this app. I pay for it with pleasure -- it's saved me hours of mindless copy/paste work.
I chose to seat many applications. I stopped at cleanclip. I like everything, very good technical support, interface. The application is constantly evolving. Everything is very good
Nice, simple and powerfull app. I have tested many clipboard apps and this is definitively the best. Hope Sintone never stop to improve it.
