Field notes
The homepage describes keyboard shortcuts for opening search, pinning frequently used clips, saving snippets, and pasting items directly. It says scanned documents are searched through up to 50 pages and that copied passwords from password managers are not retained. Installation requires Apple silicon and macOS 14 or later; auto-paste also requires Accessibility access.
