But that's not all! Clipstory's main screen will show you a full history list and enable you to tag items, view additional details, and save clips to disk. It’s like a complete management system for everything you’ve copied, extremely powerful with thousands of uses.

Clipstory also comes with the ability to set up custom filters. You can direct Clipstory to save copied text, files, images, audio and binary data into a folder of your choice. With images you can automatically convert them into specific file formats. So Clipstory is also an automator, allowing you to gather files and information together.
