Press ⌥ V to open CopyCarp at your cursor

Win+V, but on a Mac

CopyCarp keeps the text, links, images, colors and files you copy. Hit ⌥V, choose an item with the keyboard, and it is pasted straight into the app you were using.

Built on open-source Maccy

CopyCarp is built on Maccy (MIT) — fast, keyboard-first and local-only — with rich previews and smart filters on top. Thanks, p0deje!

Rich previews

Image thumbnails, color swatches for #ff6a5c or rgb(), links with their site, files with icon, name and size.

Filter by type and app

One tap or ⌃1–⌃6 for All · Text · Images · Links · Files · Colors, plus a source-app menu with app icons.

Search syntax

Combine type:image, type:link or app:Safari with normal text, e.g. app:chrome type:link github.

Pasting is on by default; pin the snippets you reuse; copies from password managers are ignored. Everything stays on your Mac.

FAQ

When will it ship?

Coming soon. Join the waitlist and we’ll email you once a beta is ready — early-bird price $9.99.

Wasn’t it called Clipfish?

Yes — we renamed it CopyCarp (复制鲤) to avoid a trademark conflict.

Is it related to Maccy?

CopyCarp is an independent fork of the MIT-licensed Maccy. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Maccy project; full licenses ship in the app.

Changelog

    Renamed from Clipfish; rich previews, type/app filters and type:/app: search working in internal builds.
