CAPTURE AND QUICK MODE

From screenshot to finished result.

Start a capture from the app, tray, or a configured keyboard shortcut.

Area → Quick Capture

Select or adjust an area and annotate it right in the fast capture window.

Finish in a few actions

Copy the image, save a PNG, add it to local history, or continue in the full editor.

Screen and window → editor

A full-screen or window capture opens for detailed editing. You can open an existing image too.

LOCAL AGENTS · MCP

Work on a screenshot with an agent.

Enable MCP in settings. A compatible agent can start a capture, read local history, edit the open document, inspect a preview, and export a PNG. Each client has its own revocable key.

The app does not provide an AI model; the MCP client controls what it sends to its model. Connect an agent ↗
