Clipora
Extension Actions
- Live on Store
Clipboard history with search, syntax highlighting, and smart detection.
Clipora quietly remembers every piece of text you copy in Chrome — along with the page it came from and when you copied it — so you can find that quote, citation, or snippet again weeks later.
Built for researchers, students, and anyone who reads the web for a living.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHY CLIPORA
- Copy something. Clipora saves it. That's the whole interaction.
- Every item is stamped with the URL, page title, and the exact time you copied it — so your history doubles as a working bibliography.
- Full-text search across everything you've ever copied. Find that phrase you read last Tuesday in seconds.
- Filter by date (Today / This week / This month), by source domain, or by type (quotes, code, links).
- One click (or Return) to copy any item back to your active clipboard.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PRIVACY-FIRST BY DESIGN
- 100% local. Your clipboard history is stored inside your browser using IndexedDB. It never touches a server — because there is no server.
- No account. No sign-up. No email. Install it and it works.
- No analytics. No telemetry. No third-party requests.
- You can export or clear your entire history from the options page at any time.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
BUILT FOR RESEARCH WORKFLOWS
- Source-linked citations — every saved snippet keeps its origin URL so you can jump back to the page or drop the link into a footnote.
- Works across tabs and pages. Writing a literature review? Copy quotes from ten papers without losing track of which one said what.
- Keyboard-first. Open the history popup with Ctrl+Shift+V (customizable in chrome://extensions/shortcuts).
- Search auto-completes. Type three letters and jump to the right quote.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PERFECT FOR
- Grad students managing quotes across dozens of papers
- Journalists tracking source material
- Researchers building literature reviews or meta-analyses
- Writers who copy references across many tabs
- Anyone who has ever thought "I just copied that — where did it go?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT IT DOES NOT DO
- Does not sync across devices (by design — local-only)
- Does not read page content beyond the text you copy
- Does not store passwords or form data automatically
Install Clipora. Copy normally. Find everything later.
