Draft
Open a compact writing surface from the menu bar or global shortcut, then write without launching a full document editor.
macOS menu bar writing buffer
Draft fast. Reuse Snippets. Copy only when you choose.
Scriby Tray is a compact writing buffer for quick Drafts, reusable text Snippets, local template variables, tags, and explicit clipboard Copy from the macOS menu bar.
- macOS 14+
- One-time purchase

A small loop for text you send often
Scriby is built for the moment before text leaves your Mac: capture it, shape it, save what is reusable, and Copy deliberately.
Snippets
Save reusable replies, search by text or saved tags, and duplicate a Snippet back into Draft for quick customization.
Copy
Command-Enter and Copy buttons write to the clipboard only when you ask. Opening or closing Scriby never sends text silently.
Templates stay plain until Copy
Use placeholders such as {{name}}, {{date}}, and {{time}} in Drafts or Snippets. Scriby fills values locally during explicit Copy and leaves saved source text unchanged.
- Custom variables and defaults
- Built-in date and time formats
- Blank values keep original placeholders
- Tags stay metadata and are never copied
Made for focused Mac workflows
For fast replies
Keep a compact buffer ready for messages, support replies, follow-ups, and short writing you need to polish before sending.
For reusable text
Store the snippets you reuse, keep them searchable with tags, and avoid rewriting the same text in every app.
For local control
Drafts, Snippets, tags, template settings, and preferences stay on your Mac, with Import and Export for manual backup.
