Keynou Clipboard's server is a relay, not a storage system. It passes WebSocket messages between connected clients but never writes text to disk, a database, or logs. Your text exists only in the RAM of connected browsers and the server's transient memory during relay.
The server only forwards Socket.io events between connected clients. It has no database, no file system writes, and no text logging.
There is no database. The server uses an in-memory Map to track connected users and rooms. Restart the server and everything is gone.
Each session is isolated - only participants with the exact link can receive messages. The server doesn't broadcast across sessions.
The server code is simple and auditable. You can read the entire server.js file and verify that no text is ever stored or logged.
Client A types text and sends a WebSocket event to the server.
The server receives the event and relays it to all other clients in the same session room.
The server does not store, log, or cache the text - it only forwards the event.
Other clients receive the event and update their editor in real-time.
Share text knowing the server only relays it - no storage, no caching, no logging. Your text passes through, never stays.
In environments with strict data retention rules, the relay model means there's nothing to retain, audit, or delete.
Share code snippets peer-to-peer with confidence. The server relays the text but never stores it - perfect for proprietary code.
Self-host Keynou Clipboard on your own server for complete control over the relay. The server stores nothing, so there's nothing to compromise.
Keynou Clipboard uses a relay model - the server passes messages between clients but stores nothing. True browser-to-browser WebRTC is on the roadmap for even more direct peer connections.
No. The server only relays Socket.io events between connected clients. Text exists only in the RAM of connected browsers and the server's transient memory during relay. No disk, no database, no logs.
Cloud clipboard tools store your text on servers in a database. Keynou Clipboard's server only relays messages - your text is never persisted anywhere. This is fundamentally more private.
Yes. Keynou Clipboard is a standard Node.js application. You can self-host the entire server on your own infrastructure for complete control over the relay.
Open the editor and try it for yourself. No login, no signup, no storage.
