Description
The paragraph you retype every week, the PDF you show every client, the details every form asks for. Keep them once. Reuse them in a tap. Most snippet apps stop at text. Amber keeps images and documents too, and finds them by the words inside them — a screenshot of a receipt is findable by what it says. Templates ask only for the parts that change. Show a PDF page by page, then hand over the real file. No account, no server: your own iCloud. Pro is one payment, not a subscription.

Could you build this?
Partial Creating a cross-device Apple ecosystem clipboard/asset manager with on-device OCR search, cross-device multi-peer beaming, and native system hotkeys requires native Swift/Apple framework expertise beyond typical web-based vibe coding.
What it would actually take: The app requires a multiplatform SwiftUI codebase (macOS/iOS/iPadOS) utilizing Apple's Vision framework (VNRecognizeTextRequest) for local OCR indexing, Core Data / SwiftData with CloudKit for encrypted sync, and MultipeerConnectivity / Network.framework for local zero-config device-to-device beaming. System integration on macOS demands global accessibility hooks (NSEvent, CGEvent) for universal hotkey triggering and pasteboard management. The hardest technical challenges are coordinating low-latency peer-to-peer discovery without pairing and maintaining memory efficiency when processing high-resolution assets locally.
