The clipboard that
guards itself.
Copywarden is a local-first clipboard manager for macOS that encrypts every copy with AES-256-GCM before it touches disk. On-device. No telemetry.
Public beta opens in days — macOS 14+. The list gets launch pricing first.
A live simulation of the real popup — click it and use your keyboard.
Most clipboard managers are plaintext loggers of your most sensitive data.
Passwords, tokens, card numbers — copied all day, stored unencrypted, readable by any app. Copywarden treats your clipboard like the credential store it actually is.
Press ⌘⇧V anywhere. Your history appears without stealing focus.
Live keyword search across your decrypted history, rich previews, pins with ⌥⌘1–9 paste slots — plus on-device semantic search on Pro.
Copy a password from your password manager's browser extension. Copywarden catches it.
Browser extensions can't mark a copy as concealed, so the signal a clipboard manager normally relies on simply isn't there. Copywarden detects the copy across nine browsers and conceals it automatically.
Let AI read your clipboard. Just not your secrets.
Shortcuts, Spotlight and App Intents pass through AgentAccessGuard — one audit-logged chokepoint that redacts everything an agent sees, and logs every access.
Organized by on-device intelligence.
Clips sort themselves into Prompts, Code, Links, Addresses and more — inference runs on your Mac, and clips containing a detected secret are never sent to the model. Secrets don't get organized. They get protected.
Encrypted before it touches disk. Verifiable to the last line.
We publish exactly what we do — and only claim what we can prove.
AES-256-GCM, per-item keys
Every clip is authenticated-encrypted with a unique key derived per item (HKDF-SHA256) from a random 256-bit master key.
Secure Enclave key wrapping
The master key is wrapped by non-extractable hardware on supported Macs — Keychain-guarded, device-only otherwise.
Touch ID, if you want it
Two optional toggles — both off by default — can ask for Touch ID before an item is revealed and before the history popup opens. They gate the app's interface, not your data: every clip is encrypted either way.
Tamper-evident audit log
An HMAC + hash-chained log records access events (never content) and exports to JSON or CSV.
