Rakkun

Digs through your clipboard.
Decodes everything.

Rakkun is a native macOS clipboard manager that understands what you copied. Hit ⌘⇧V — JSON is already pretty-printed, the JWT is already decoded, the timestamp is already a date. Before you even ask.

Detection

It knows what you copied.

Every item in your history is detected, parsed, and given the actions it deserves — automatically, on-device, in native Swift.

JSON

Pretty-printed and syntax-highlighted the moment you copy it. Paste formatted, copy minified, or pull the value at a path.

{"user":{"id":48213,"plan":"pro"}}

JWT

Header and payload decoded, expiry tracked live. Copy the payload as JSON — or just the sub, since that's what you wanted anyway.

Colors

A hex code becomes a swatch with RGB, HSL, SwiftUI and UIColor equivalents. Paste it as whichever format the file in front of you wants.

Timestamps

Unix timestamps translated to local, UTC, relative, and ISO 8601 — no more pasting ten digits into a converter tab.

URLs

Tracking parameters stripped automatically. Paste the clean URL; the original stays one keystroke away if you really want the utm_source.

?utm_source=slack&fbclid=… removed

curl commands

Formatted multiline for reading, converted to URLSession or fetch() for shipping. Your API docs just became paste-able code.

curl -X POST → URLSession / fetch()

API keys

Detected and masked — secrets never sit in plain sight on your screen. Paste reveals the value; pinned secrets live in the Keychain.

UUIDs & ULIDs

Canonical, uppercase, lowercase, or hyphenless — whichever your database wants, one keystroke away. ULIDs decoded too.

550E8400-E29B-… → lower / no-hyphens

Screenshots → text

Copy an image and Rakkun reads it — on-device OCR turns screenshots into searchable, paste-able text. Nothing touches the network.

copied image → recognized text

Everything else

Plain text gets the full treatment: fuzzy search with /kind and @source filters, transforms like slugify and JSON-escape, pinning, and paste without formatting.

/json @terminal → filtered history

Privacy

Your clipboard is nobody’s business.

A clipboard manager sees everything you copy. That’s exactly why Rakkun is built so it can’t betray you.

Passwords are never recorded

Anything copied from a password manager (concealed pasteboard types) is skipped entirely — and you can exclude any app the same way. Not masked, not encrypted — never recorded at all.

Never leaves your Mac

History lives on your device and nowhere else. No sync service, no server, no account. Nothing you copy ever touches a network.

No clipboard analytics

Zero telemetry on clipboard contents. Rakkun is 100% native Swift 6 and SwiftUI, sandboxed, with the hardened runtime — the Mac App Store way.

Strip secrets before they leave

Pasting a config or log somewhere public? Rakkun flags embedded API keys, tokens and passwords — Strip & Paste redacts them in one action.

Keyboard-first

Your hands never leave the keys.

Summon, search, act, paste — the whole loop is keystrokes. The mouse is optional equipment.

Private early access

Have a code?

Rakkun is in private early access. Enter your access code and you’re ten seconds from installing.

First launch: early-access builds aren’t notarized yet, so macOS will warn you. Right-click Rakkun.app → Open, or allow it under System Settings → Privacy & Security → “Open Anyway”. Once — then never again.

No code yet? Request access — we onboard a few developers every week.
