Started building simple app and accidentally uncovered something bigger

Like a lot of devs, I started this project just trying to scratch my own itch. I couldn’t find a clipboard manager that looked good, worked reliably, and most importantly synced across devices. Nothing quite fit, especially bouncing between Windows and macOS daily. So I started building one. But the deeper I got, the more I realized something: the clipboard is kind of this invisible layer of our daily workflows. It’s where everything passes through code, logs, notes, links, screenshots, snippets, thoughts and yet it’s treated like a dumb buffer. What if it wasn’t? Now I’m exploring how to build an AI layer on top of clipboard history. The idea is simple: • Instead of feeding AI tools data every time you need help… • The system quietly collects and organizes your interactions in the background. • So when you need something a summary, a reformat, a search, a decision the AI already has the context. Still early, but I feel like this could change how we interact with our machines. Less prompting, more getting. Would love to hear what you think 🙂
