## What is Arkive?

Arkive is a clipboard manager that remembers everything you copy and helps you find it again, by meaning as well as by keyword.

EVERYTHING, SAVED AUTOMATICALLY
On your Mac, Arkive watches your clipboard and saves text, links, and images the moment you copy them. On iPhone, send anything to Arkive from the share sheet, including screenshots straight from the preview.

FIND WHAT YOU MEANT
Search understands context, not just characters. Look for "flight confirmation" and find an email that never uses those words. Copied a screenshot? Arkive reads the text inside it automatically, so it's searchable too.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Every bit of processing, from search to recognizing sensitive content, happens on your device. Arkive has no servers, no analytics, no accounts, and no third-party tracking of any kind. If you turn on sync, your clips move between your own Mac and iPhone through your own private iCloud account. Arkive's developer never has access to it.

PASSWORDS AND KEYS, PROTECTED
Arkive automatically recognizes when something you copied looks like a password, API key, or other credential, and seals it behind Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode, separate from the rest of your history.

STAYS OUT OF YOUR WAY
Keep a full history or set it to prune automatically after a chosen number of days or items. Pin anything you want to keep for good. Export your whole history as a backup any time.

Arkive is free to try in full for 30 days. After that, unlock it once for $2.99, no subscription, ever.

Arkive can now capture and search text inside documents, PowerPoint presentations, and spreadsheets, including slide speaker notes. Copy saved files back to Finder or Files in their original format, and fine-tune retention by content type with new storage controls.

Images copied from Finder keep their original format and file name, so a JPEG or a HEIC comes back out as the file it was. Legacy Office formats (DOC, PPT and XLS) are still unsupported, and Arkive now skips them instead of saving their file path as a note.

Cards can show how many days a clip has left before retention removes it. Turn the countdown on in Settings, under Retention.

Sensitive clips now ask for authentication before an image or a PDF is copied, not only before text. Encrypted clips also survive keychain changes that could previously leave them unreadable.

Image and text recognition is more reliable during busy capture bursts. On Mac, Arkive now asks before enabling Open at Login, and you can change that choice anytime in Settings.
