TextStow is a local-first clipboard workspace for macOS. It automatically saves clipboard history, lets you bookmark reusable text, images, and files, and includes built-in text tools for cleanup, formatting, and quick transformations. Designed for people who copy all day and want a faster, more private workflow on Mac.

Hey Product Hunt! I’m the maker of TextStow 👋 I built TextStow because I kept running into the same problems on Mac: - copied text getting overwritten - reusable snippets scattered across notes and docs - messy text copied from PDFs that needed cleanup - sensitive content I didn’t want to paste into random web tools TextStow is my attempt to put all of that into one local-first workflow: • clipboard history • bookmarks for reusable text, images, and files • built-in text tools for cleanup and formatting • fast search across everything you copied It’s designed for people who copy all day and want a faster, more private workflow on Mac. Would love your honest feedback: What’s the most frustrating part of your clipboard workflow today?

Huge congrats on the launch! 🎉 I've been looking for a clipboard manager that doesn't just store history but actually helps me use the text. The fact that TextStow includes prompt templates with {{name}} variables is an absolute game-changer for my daily AI workflows. Also, having a built-in JSON formatter and PDF text cleaner right inside the paste menu? Brilliant. I also really appreciate the 100% local SQLite approach—no privacy worries with sensitive API keys or client data. Upvoted and supporting! 🚀
