What stays on your Mac.

Last updated July 5, 2026.

App data

InsertIt stores clipboard history on your Mac. Text, links, and item metadata are kept in the app's local database. Screenshot originals and thumbnails are saved as files in Application Support.

InsertIt does not sync clipboard history, screenshot metadata, or OCR text to a hosted database.

OCR and link handling

Screenshot OCR runs on your Mac through Apple's Vision framework. InsertIt does not contact websites to fetch link titles, favicons, or page metadata.

Controls

In the app, you can pause capture, clear history, pin items, configure retention, and exclude sensitive apps from capture. InsertIt also runs conservative local checks for password-like or token-like text and skips content those checks flag.

Website analytics

This website does not run client-side analytics pixels or tracking scripts. The hosting provider may still provide aggregate request counts through Cloudflare.
