Find screenshots and images by what’s inside them — not just filenames.
Clean up text before you paste — case, JSON, spacing, and more in one click.
Narrow your history by type, app, or date and land on right paste fast.
The crafted way of finding your pastes. Use filters, search and the timeline to efficiently find what you need, when you need it.
When Pastery went out to the macOS community, the response was instant. Built native, private, and fast — the way a Mac app should be.
I copied a code snippet in VS Code, jumped to Slack, and found it in seconds. Filtering by app sounds small, but it saves me every day.
I keep screenshots, links, and snippets all day. Seeing where each clip came from makes my head less noisy.
Didn’t expect it to feel this light. No lag, no clutter, just there when I need it.
Installed it in the morning and by lunch I was already relying on it. It feels very Mac in the best way.
Search is instant. I type two words and boom, right paste. Exactly what I wanted.
I opened it for five minutes and ended up cleaning my whole clipboard workflow. Super smooth.
Tried it for a day, then couldn’t go back. It quietly removes friction from everything.

Find anything you copied — instantly. Pastery is a native macOS clipboard manager with a searchable visual history for text, images, links, colors, and files, plus image OCR, smart filters, and text transforms.
No. Your clipboard history is stored locally on your Mac. Pastery has no cloud sync — your clips never leave your device.
Yes. Every screenshot you copy is indexed by Apple Vision OCR in the background. You can type any word that appeared in the image — an error message, a URL, a UI label — and Pastery will find the screenshot instantly. No manual tagging required.
Maccy is a free plain-text list in your menu bar. Pastery adds visual cards, image OCR search, Overview Mode for browsing by app and date, and text transforms before pasting. If you only copy text and want free, Maccy works. If you copy screenshots or need to find something from days ago, Pastery handles what Maccy can't.
Pastery requires macOS 15 Sequoia or later. It runs natively on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
Yes — 14 days, full access, no credit card required. Download the app and everything works from day one. You're only prompted to purchase after the trial ends.
No. Pastery is a Mac-only app. There is no iPhone or iPad version, and no iCloud sync. If cross-device clipboard sync is essential to your workflow, Paste is the main alternative that offers it.
