Most clipboard managers help you find something you copied earlier. Kept handles the step that comes next. Edit copied text, screenshots, images, videos, and supported PDFs, then paste or export without moving the item through another app. Kept also includes a searchable, local clipboard library and fast menu bar panel. The free version covers everyday clipboard use; Pro unlocks advanced editing and workflow features for a one-time $19.99. No account, cloud, or subscription.
The Mac already has plenty of clipboard managers, but my frustration usually started after copying something. A screenshot needed cropping, a video needed trimming, a PDF had a small typo, or some text needed cleaning up. That meant opening another app, exporting, copying again, and returning to the original task.
I built Kept to treat clipboard history as a working space. You can edit copied text, screenshots and images, videos, and supported PDFs locally, then paste or export the result directly.
There’s no account and no cloud storage. Kept is available in seven languages, has a usable free tier, and Pro is an optional $19.99 lifetime purchase with no subscription.
It isn’t trying to replace Acrobat or a full video editor. The goal is to remove the small edits and extra apps that interrupt everyday work. Complex or protected PDFs are handled conservatively rather than being silently damaged.
Kept started as a side project. Losing my job pushed me to stop treating it like another unfinished prototype and release it properly.
I’d genuinely appreciate honest feedback: does “edit before you paste” fit your workflow, and which part would you use first? I’ll be here answering questions and taking notes.
