CLUSTER BETWEEN-CLIPBOARD-FILES · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-01-07
LAN clipboard sharing tools
This cluster consists of products for sharing clipboard content—text, images, files, and folders—between devices over a local network, often via real-time sync or floating overlays. Entered dates span from 2018 to early 2026, with sporadic early entries and a denser set of dated entries from late 2025 through early 2026, though the number of entries is small. Traction leaders (snapsync, clipsync, pcopy) each have zero stars, so no member has notable traction.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 13 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
