SnipIT
What it is
SnipIT is a snippet manager for code, AI prompts, developer links, and offline utilities. Its free tier includes Code, AI, Links, and Tools vaults, along with web clipping that saves code and text from websites. Free-tier snippet data stays in the browser’s local environment. A licensed Pro account enables real-time syncing among the Chrome extension, desktop app, and web dashboard. The extension can review code with Google Gemini and generate boilerplate, tests, or functions. SnipIT says AI features do not use proprietary code to train external models; secret scanning warns about saved API keys or credentials. Cloud-synced data is protected by Firebase Security Rules. Enterprise team workspaces support shared vaults and resources, and administrators can export or wipe organization data. The native Tauri desktop application is listed for Windows, Mac, and Linux, and the extension is available in the Chrome Web Store. SnipIT offers a free plan, but paid prices are not published on the maker’s site.
