Native macOS menu bar app
A clipboard that cleans and encrypts
Everything you copy is automatically stripped of trackers and hidden AI watermarks, encrypted with AES-256-GCM in the Keychain, and pasted back with a single shortcut.
Free early build. Works offline — no telemetry, no analytics, no required account.
Capabilities
Three things the app does well
Everything runs locally — no cloud, no accounts, no background requests. Text transformations and history storage stay on your Mac.
01
Clean Text
Strips UTM and tracking parameters from links, removes invisible AI watermarks (zero-width Unicode), decodes HTML entities, normalizes curly quotes, em-dashes, ellipses, line breaks, and lists. A code-detection pass leaves source code untouched.
02
Encrypted history
Up to 100 items, 72-hour TTL, full-text search. Everything is encrypted with AES-256-GCM and the symmetric key lives in the macOS Keychain. A cleaning summary shows exactly what was removed from each captured snippet.
03
Menu bar speed
Quick-paste ⌥⌘1–9 for the first nine items, hover copy and delete actions, color-coded badges for cleaning results. No Spotlight, no window — one shortcut, you're done.
04
Privacy by default
No analytics, no telemetry, no required account. Works offline. Ships with a PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy manifest and a transparent list of macOS permissions it asks for.
Technical details
Under the hood
For the quick-paste ⌥⌘1–9 shortcuts to work, the app asks for an Accessibility permission in System Settings — it's required to simulate ⌘V into the active application. Without it, history, search, and Clean Text still work; only the auto-paste step falls back to a manual ⌘V.
No other background permissions are requested. All data stays on your Mac.
Try it on your Mac
Run the build on an Apple Silicon Mac (macOS 14.6 or later), copy a few links or chunks of text from ChatGPT, and watch what the app strips out. The icon lives in the menu bar.
