SafetyClip
Clipboard manager for Mac
Every copy, saved. Every secret, hidden.
SafetyClip remembers everything you copy, from the prompt you just polished to the command you'll need tomorrow, so you can find it and paste it again with ⌃⌘V. When you copy a password or an API key, it hides it from other apps, clears it from the clipboard and locks it behind Touch ID.
macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple Silicon or Intel · One-time purchase · Source code included
New to clipboard managers?
Your Mac's clipboard holds one thing at a time. SafetyClip keeps all of them.
- ⌘C
Copy like you always do
Prompts, replies, links, commands. SafetyClip saves each one quietly from the menu bar.
- ⌃⌘V
Open your history
A search box appears over whatever app you're in, with everything you've copied, newest first.
- ↩
Pick it and it's pasted
Type a few letters, press Return, and it lands right where your cursor is.
Working with AI
Prompts, replies and API keys pass through your clipboard all day.
Keep the prompts that work
Name the prompt that finally got it right. Next week it's one search away, in any app.
Carry context between tools
Copy an error from the terminal, code from your editor and a reply from the chat, then paste each one where it's needed.
Keys don't end up in a chat
An API key you copy to set up a tool comes straight off the clipboard, and ⌘V asks for Touch ID before pasting it, so a stray paste can't drop it into a conversation.

- Release notes promptTurn these release notes into a short, friendly update for customers.
- Code review promptReview this diff like a senior engineer. Bugs first, style last.

What it does
A clipboard history you'll use every day, that knows a secret when it sees one.
Knows 100+ kinds of secrets
API keys, tokens and passwords are recognised the moment you copy them.
- OpenAI
- Anthropic
- GitHub
- AWS
- Stripe
- Slack
- Private keys
- Database URLs
- .env lines
- JWTs
- Password managers
Hidden from other apps
Secrets are marked concealed, so other clipboard managers skip them, and they stay masked in your own history.
Never left on the clipboard
A secret is cleared right after you paste it. If you turn off Touch ID to paste, it's cleared after 90 seconds instead, or whenever you choose.
Name what you'll need again
Call it “Prod database” or “Release notes prompt” and find it by name, even when it's a secret.
Missed one? Mark it
Mark anything as secret and it's locked away, and hidden the next time you copy it. Or pick apps whose copies are always secret, like an authenticator or your bank.
Touch ID to paste
Copy a key and it's taken off the clipboard. Press ⌘V as usual and Touch ID comes up before it pastes. Viewing one in your history asks too.
See which apps read it anyway
If an app reads a concealed secret, the Leaks view names it, so you know which key to rotate.
Out of your shell history
Hooks for zsh, bash and fish keep commands with secrets out of history, and a scan cleans up old ones.
$ export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-51Hq8x… $ history | tail -2 411 git pull 412 npm test # The line with your key was never saved.
A record of every secret
The audit log shows when secrets were copied, concealed, pasted and cleared, without storing them.
Privacy
Your clipboard never leaves your Mac.
A clipboard manager sees everything you copy, so SafetyClip keeps all of it on your Mac and out of sight.
Stays on this Mac
Detection, history and encryption all happen on your Mac. Your clipboard is never sent anywhere.
Secrets need Touch ID
History is encrypted with a key in your Keychain, and secrets are sealed by the Secure Enclave on top.
Hidden from screen sharing
SafetyClip's windows don't show up in screenshots, recordings or shared screens.
No account, no tracking in the app
Nothing to sign up for. The app has no analytics, no crash reporting and no ads.
Online for two things only
A license check about once a month, and updates when you allow them. Being offline never locks the app.
Read every line
Every license includes the full Swift source on GitHub, so you can check what it does.

Questions
What's a clipboard manager?
Normally your Mac's clipboard holds one thing: copy something new and the last thing is gone. A clipboard manager keeps a history of what you copy, so you can paste something from an hour ago without hunting for it again. SafetyClip keeps 30 days by default.
Why is the source code included?
So you can check exactly what an app that sees your clipboard does. Every purchase includes read access to the private GitHub repository, with the full Swift source and its history, to read, audit and build for the Mac your license covers. It's for your own use, not for sharing.
Can I use it on more than one Mac?
A license covers one Mac at a time. To move it, deactivate it in SafetyClip under Settings → License, then activate it on the new Mac. For more Macs, buy a license for each.
Does SafetyClip connect to the internet?
Only for your license and for updates. Activating sends your license key and your Mac's model to Dodo Payments, which sells SafetyClip for us, and SafetyClip re-checks the key about once a month; being offline never locks it. Update checks are off by default: SafetyClip looks for a new version when you click Check for Updates, or daily if you turn on automatic checks. Detection, encryption and your history all stay on your Mac, and nothing about your clipboard is ever sent.
Which Macs does it run on?
macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple Silicon or Intel.
Is it useful if I don't work with API keys?
Yes. Most of what you copy isn't secret: prompts you've refined, AI replies worth keeping, links, notes and commands. SafetyClip keeps 30 days of them, searchable, and you can name the ones you'll want again.
Why does ⌘V ask for Touch ID?
When you copy an API key or another secret, SafetyClip takes it off the clipboard, so it isn't sitting there for other apps to read. Pressing ⌘V brings up Touch ID, then pastes it and clears it again. It needs the Accessibility permission, and you can turn it off in Settings. Copies from password managers paste as usual, since those apps already ask before copying.
What if SafetyClip misses a secret?
Mark it as secret from its menu in History, or press ⌘L in the ⌃⌘V panel. It's locked behind Touch ID, and the same text is hidden the next time you copy it. For apps where everything is sensitive, like an authenticator or your bank, add them in Settings and every copy from them is treated as a secret. Password managers are always included.
How do I get it after paying?
Right away you see your license key and a download link, and you get them by email too. To get the source code, connect your GitHub account from that email or the customer portal, then accept the invitation to the repository. Lost your key? Sign in to the portal with the email you bought with and it's there. Open the customer portal.
Does it work alongside Raycast, Alfred, Paste or Maccy?
Yes. They honour the concealed marker SafetyClip adds, so they don't save your secrets. If an app reads one anyway, the Leaks view tells you.
What if I don't like it after buying?
No problem. Just drop us a note at support@appmacha.com within 5 days of buying and we'll give you a full refund. No questions, no hard feelings. Read the refund policy.
