Like most developers, I move little scraps of content between machines all day: a code
snippet from my laptop to a remote box, a screenshot to my phone, an error log to a
teammate. Email is too heavy, chat apps re-compress images, and most pastebins make you
sign up before you can do anything useful.
So I built Cloud Clipboard (cv.cm) — an online clipboard that needs
no account. Paste text, an image, audio, video, or any file, and it gives you back an
ultra-short link you can copy with one click. Open the link anywhere and the content is
there.
What it does
- Paste anything → get a short link. Text, images, audio, video, arbitrary files.
- Built for code. Syntax highlighting for 200+ languages, plus HTML and Markdown rendering, so a shared snippet actually looks like code instead of a wall of plain text.
- Cross-device by default. The link is the transport — laptop → phone → server, no app install, no login.
- Public or private, with tags to keep things organized.
- Auto-translation into 11 languages, which turned out to be handy for cross-border teammates reading the same paste.
The whole thing runs on Next.js on Cloudflare Pages + D1, which keeps it fast and cheap
enough to stay free for everyday use.
The part I didn't expect to build
While using the clipboard to shuttle around AI-generated assets, I kept bouncing out to
separate tools to actually make the videos and images. So I folded a small AI studio
into the same app at cv.cm/v:
- Queue-free Seedance 2.0 text/image-to-video generation (real human faces supported).
- Image generation via gpt-image-2 and Seedream.
- A virtual avatar library and a face mode.
New accounts get 100 free credits to try it, and the free tier covers normal clipboard
use indefinitely — you only upgrade if you want long-term storage that never expires.
Try it
No signup needed to test the core idea — open cv.cm, paste something, and
copy the link. I'd genuinely love feedback from other devs on the snippet-sharing flow and
what file types you'd want supported next.
What do you currently use to throw a snippet or file from one device to another? Always
looking for the gaps I haven't covered yet.
