CopyslateEverything youcopy, one keyaway.
Copyslate lives in your Mac's menu bar. Press ⌥V for the text, links, images and files you copied. Press ⌥⇧V to drop your latest screenshot on a canvas that floats over the app you're working in.
Free. $9.99 once for Canvas and Pins.
One shortcut. Then type, then Return.
History lives in a panel that opens where you are. Nothing to switch to, nothing to arrange.
Open your history
Text, links, images and files, newest first. Screenshots are copied the moment you take them, so they're already here.
Search as you type
Find that command from last week, the address you keep re-copying, the link from the meeting.
Use it
Return copies the item and closes the panel. Paste where you were. Press ⌘P instead to pin it.
A canvas that floats over your work.
Press ⌥⇧V and your latest screenshot lands on a board that stays on top of Blender, Figma, Photoshop or whatever you're working in. Pin references beside your model. Build a mood board without leaving the app.
Scroll to see it happen.
Every image gets handles.
Arrange a board the way you'd arrange prints on a wall. Zoom in close to check a detail, and undo anything.
Mood boards from what you've already copied.
Photos, screenshots, a color, a note. Drop them in, nudge them around, and the board is ready to show someone. Try rearranging this one.
Calm, natural light, wide shots.
Pin what you use often.
Your address, a signature, that one terminal command. Pinned items wait at the bottom of the panel and never scroll away. Tap a pin to try it.

Boards are files.
A canvas saves as a .slate file. Open it and everything is where you left it. Finder shows a preview, so a folder of boards reads like a folder of prints. Send one to a colleague who has Copyslate and they get the whole board.
Your clipboard stays on your Mac.
A clipboard manager sees everything you copy, so it has to be trustworthy. Copyslate keeps history and boards in local files and never sends them anywhere.
