A clipboard workbench for Mac.

What it does

ContextPaste shows you what is actually on the clipboard and lets you shape it before you paste.

Use it to clean formatting, keep structure, convert formats, extract images or links, combine copied items, paste things one by one, or save the process as a reusable workflow.

Why

The clipboard is not always one simple piece of text. A copy can include plain text, HTML, RTF, images, files, URLs, app-specific data, and derived versions.

Normal paste often picks one version for you. Sometimes that is fine. Sometimes it brings weird formatting, loses the useful part, or gives you the wrong shape for the app you are pasting into.

Workflows

You can build workflows from source rules, destination rules, content detectors, tags, collections, and your own transforms. AI can help write workflows without seeing the contents of your clipboard.
