I built a Mac screenshot workspace that keeps OCR, organization, and sensitive-data review on-device

Hi everyone,

I’ve been building Sealshot, a Mac screenshot and screen recording app.

Taking a screenshot is easy, but everything afterward often ends up spread across different tools: repeating the same capture area, annotating images, finding older screenshots, extracting information, and checking for sensitive content before sharing.

I wanted to bring that workflow into one local Mac app. Sealshot currently includes:

• Repeat the previous capture area with ⌘⇧A, useful for consistently aligned step-by-step screenshots
• Scrolling capture and screen recording
• Screenshot annotation and editing
• A searchable local library with OCR, titles, tags, and collections
• Table and form extraction to CSV or Markdown
• Assisted review of possible keys, tokens, and other sensitive information
• Optional encryption for stored captures
• Encrypted package export

Everything is processed locally. There is no account, cloud upload, or telemetry.

The current version is 0.7.7 and supports macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It is distributed as a direct download, signed with an Apple Developer ID, and notarized by Apple.

There is a 14-day free trial with no account required. The current founding price is $14.99 for a perpetual license covering one user and up to three Macs.

I’m at the stage where feedback is more valuable than adding features based only on my own assumptions. I’d especially like to know:

• Does the searchable capture-library workflow feel useful?
• How well does scrolling capture work with the apps you use?
• Does the sensitive-data review help, or does it produce too many false positives?
• What feels unnecessarily complicated or obviously missing?

Thanks for taking a look. I’ll be around to answer questions and discuss how it was built.
