Windows clipboard history that searches inside screenshots
Cubby is the clipboard history Windows should have shipped. It keeps copied text, images, files, and screenshots searchable after restarts, while offline OCR lets you find a screenshot by the words inside it. Everything stays encrypted on your PC: no account, no cloud, no clipboard telemetry. Open it with a shortcut, search, and paste.
Hey Product Hunt, I’m Tyler, the maker of Cubby.
I built it because Win+V is close to being useful, but it forgets the things I actually need later, especially screenshots.
Cubby is a Windows 11 clipboard history that:
✓ Keeps copied text, images, files, and screenshots after restarts
✓ Uses Windows’ offline OCR to make text inside screenshots searchable
✓ Stores history encrypted on your PC
✓ Requires no account and sends clipboard content nowhere
✓ Supports pins, folders, ignored apps, and remote-session workflows
Cubby began as a GPL fork of PastePaw. I preserved the attribution and license, then rebuilt major parts around reliability, privacy, Windows-native behavior, and OCR.
The moment I care about is simple: copy a screenshot today, remember three words weeks later, search those words, and get the screenshot back.
Cubby is free and open source. I’d especially love feedback on OCR accuracy, the cursor-positioned flyout, and which Windows apps or clipboard formats you use most.
