Alt+Shift+A  ·  Alt+Shift+S

Everything you need in a screenshot tool

Powerful enough for power users, simple enough for everyone.

Two Capture Modes

Select any area or capture the full visible page. Keyboard shortcuts (Alt+Shift+A / S) for instant capture.

7 Annotation Tools

Rectangle, arrow, line, freehand, text, and blur — with 6 colors and 3 stroke sizes. Full undo/redo support.

Beautiful Backgrounds

11 presets — 8 gradients, 2 solids, and transparent. Adjustable padding (0–128 px) and border radius (0–32 px).

Shadow Presets

None, Soft, or Medium drop shadows to give screenshots depth and a polished, professional look.

Instant Export

Copy to clipboard, download PNG, or drag-and-drop directly into Slack, Notion, Figma, and more.

Retina Ready

Captures at full device pixel ratio — screenshots stay sharp and crisp on HiDPI and Retina displays.

How it works

Three steps. Zero friction.

1

Capture

Click the extension icon or press a shortcut. Select an area or grab the full visible page.

2

Edit

Annotate with arrows, text, and blur. Add a gradient background and drop shadow.

Share

Copy, download, or drag the image straight into any app. It's already on your clipboard.

Annotation Toolkit

Seven tools to mark up any screenshot: rectangle, arrow, line, freehand draw, text, blur, and a select tool for repositioning. Choose from 6 color swatches and 3 stroke widths. Undo and redo keep your workflow non-destructive.

Preview & Export

A floating, draggable preview panel shows your result in real time. One-click copy to clipboard, save as PNG, or go back to edit. Drag the preview directly into Slack, Notion, or Figma — the image is auto-copied to your clipboard, too. Files are saved with timestamped names for easy organization.
