Screenshot Capture

Press a hotkey, the screen freezes instantly. Draw a region or grab the full display — the image lands in your clipboard before you can switch apps.

Ctrl+Shift+1 Full screen Ctrl+Shift+2 Region select

Annotation Editor

Mark up screenshots with arrows, shapes, text, and freehand drawing. Select multiple annotations, resize with handles, undo anything. Every tool has a keyboard shortcut.

Screen Recording

Record your full screen, a specific window, or a drawn region. Capture system audio, your microphone, or both. A floating toolbar tracks your time and stays out of the recording.

Video Editor

Trim the ends, cut from the middle, split into segments and drag to reorder. Audio waveform shows exactly where to cut. Export as MP4 when you're done.
