ClipGate — Typed Clipboard History

Auto-saves and classifies your clipboard into 13 types. Encrypts secrets. 100% local, zero cloud, fully private.

Every time you copy text in your browser, ClipGate automatically saves it and classifies it into one of 13 content types — code snippets, error traces, URLs, JSON, shell commands, API keys, secrets, and more. Secrets are detected automatically, masked in the UI, encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and auto-expired. No plain-text secrets sitting in your clipboard history. Everything stays on your machine. Zero cloud, zero accounts, zero tracking. Your clipboard data never leaves your browser. Why ClipGate? Most clipboard managers store flat text sorted by time. ClipGate understands what you copied. It knows the difference between a code snippet, an error trace, and an API key — and treats each one differently.
