Hey Product Hunt! Piyush here, I built Yank.
I copy and paste 200+ times a day, and every clipboard manager I tried either
forgot things after ~25 entries or wanted $10/mo for the one feature I actually
wanted: being able to type "the hex from Figma earlier" instead of scrolling
through history.
So Yank lets you *describe* what you copied instead of remembering it. The catch
most AI tools have - "we'll just send your clipboard to a cloud model" — was a
hard no for me. So the semantic search runs entirely on your machine: a 130 MB
model is bundled in, nothing leaves your device, no API key, no account, no
telemetry. It's MIT licensed, free forever, and works the same on macOS, Windows,
and Linux.
Built on Tauri (Rust + React) so it's a ~14 MB install and sips RAM, not an
Electron monster.
If you've ever thought "I copied that thing yesterday, where did it go?" - this
is for you. I'm a solo dev and would genuinely love feedback on what's missing
for your workflow. AMA 🙏
