Add-ons

Segmentation, upscaling, transcription, animation, and smart organization — all running locally on your Mac.

organized by AI.

A local vision LLM runs entirely on your Mac. No data leaves your machine.

AI-generated tags

Auto-Tagging

AI generates relevant tags for every screenshot — "IRS", "tax form", "social media", "code architecture" — making them instantly discoverable through the tag cloud.

Auto-Categorize

Screenshots are sorted into folders: code, chat, web, design, documents, terminal, and more. Create custom categories too.

Smart Naming

No more "Screenshot 2024-01-15 at 3.45.23 PM". Every snip gets a descriptive name like "api-endpoint-response-fix".

Semantic Search

384-dimensional embeddings make every screenshot searchable by meaning, not just filename. Powered by Transformers.js, all local.

100% Private

All AI processing happens on your Mac using Ollama and Metal GPU acceleration. Zero data sent to the cloud. No API keys needed for core features.
