# Paste

## Summary

Paste is a clipboard manager for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS that automatically saves everything you copy, keeps a searchable history, and syncs securely via Apple iCloud. It is used by individuals and teams to organize text, images, links, and files with pinboards and shared collections.

Paste solves the fundamental limitation of the system clipboard: it only holds one item at a time. With Paste, clipboard history becomes effectively unlimited, searchable, and organized. Founded in 2015, Paste has helped users work faster and smarter for over 10 years.

## Primary Use Cases

- Developers and designers managing code snippets, commands, and visual assets
- Writers and researchers collecting text, quotes, and references
- Teams collaborating with shared pinboards
- Power users who rely on keyboard-driven workflows
