Chute — Clipboard & Notes

Chute is a clipboard manager and a quiet library for everything worth keeping, on your Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.

COPY FREELY • Everything you copy on your Mac is kept: text, links, pictures, files. ⌘⇧V brings the history back, Return pastes. • ⌘⇧V finds things in your library too: type three letters, press Return, and a note is pasted anywhere. • Your latest copies appear on your iPhone and iPad within seconds. • Anything a password manager marks as secret is never recorded.

KEEP WHAT MATTERS • One keystroke sends a copy to your library. Write a thought with ⌘⇧Space, drag a file or a scan onto the window, or share from any app on your iPhone. • New things land in the Inbox. Chute suggests a folder; one click files it, or keep it loose. • Links arrive with their title and picture, files with a preview.

WRITE LIKE IN NOTES • Notes with checklists, bullets, numbered lists and headings that continue themselves. Tab nests, undo goes back step by step. • Text pasted from a terminal or a prompt joins back into paragraphs.

THINK ALOUD • Press the Action button and speak. A wave answers your voice, and the words go into today's note with the time. Heard on the phone itself, in the language you choose. • On Apple Watch, tap Speak and say it. It reaches today's note on your iPhone, even if the phone was out of reach when you spoke. • Today's note gathers the day one line at a time. ⌘T on the Mac.

REMEMBER AND DO • Set a reminder on anything: later today, this evening, tomorrow, or any date. It sounds on every device. • Every unticked checklist item from every note, in one Tasks list. Tick it there and it is ticked in the note.

CONNECT YOUR THOUGHTS • Type [[ to link a note to another. Every note shows what links to it, where it is mentioned without a link (one tap makes it one), and what is like it. • Pictures inside notes, larger with a tap. Share a page from Safari with a passage selected, and it is kept as a quote with its link.

FIND IT AGAIN • One search over everything, in any form of a word. The sidebar narrows to where it turned up, and the words are highlighted. • Spotlight finds your notes too.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Everything stays on your devices and in your own iCloud. No account, no tracking, no ads. • Sorting suggestions are made on your device. • On the same Wi-Fi, your Mac and iPhone talk directly, encrypted with a key only your devices share.

BRING WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE • On the Mac, import from Apple Notes (with pictures), Obsidian and Notion. • Works with AI assistants through MCP, so the one you already use can read and add to your Chute.

One purchase for Mac, iPhone and iPad.
