Capturo

30-day money-back guarantee

Screenshots that look finished, straight from your Mac

Capturo is a native Mac app. Hit ⇧⌘2, drag, and your capture opens in an editor with arrows, blur, gradient backgrounds and your own logo on the margin. No subscription, no 400 MB of Chromium.

Buy a lifetime license ($29)

Pay once, yours forever. No subscription. The license key arrives by email.

Screen recording built in

⇧⌘9 records the screen or an area as MP4 with system audio, composed live over your gradient background with rounded corners. Optional webcam bubble, microphone (macOS 15+) and auto-zoom on clicks (beta). Clips up to 45 s convert to GIF.

Annotate in place

Arrows, shapes, text, highlight and pixelated blur for anything private. Undo as deep as you need.

Backgrounds and framing

Eight hand-picked gradients, padding, rounded corners and shadow.

Your branding, remembered

Your website and logo stamped on the margin of every export. Set it once, it sticks.

Pin anything

Float a capture above every window while you work. Double-click to dismiss.

Native and tiny

Swift, not Electron. About 2 MB on disk, instant launch, and your screenshots never leave the Mac.

Why another screenshot app?

macOS already ships decent screenshot shortcuts. What it doesn't ship is everything that happens after the capture: pointing at things, hiding what's private, and making the image presentable enough for a changelog, a tweet or a client.

The apps that solve this tend to be subscriptions, or Electron bundles that weigh hundreds of megabytes for what is, at heart, a menu-bar utility. Capturo is the opposite bet: a small native tool that does the capture-annotate-beautify loop extremely well and stays out of the way.

Capturo costs $29 once, for life. If it is not for you, you have 30 days to ask for the money back. If you find a bug or miss a feature, tell us.

Common questions

What do I get without a license? +
Screenshots keep working, but exports carry a small watermark and screen recording stays locked until you enter a license key. The license is a one-time $29 (never a subscription), and you have 30 days to ask for the money back.
Does it upload my screenshots anywhere? +
No. Capturo has no accounts, no cloud and no telemetry on your images. Captures live on your Mac and nowhere else.
Why does macOS ask for Screen Recording permission? +
Apple gates any app that reads screen pixels behind the same permission, whether it takes one frame or records video. You grant it once and it sticks.
What Macs does it run on? +
Any Mac on macOS 14 Sonoma or later, Apple Silicon or Intel. The download is a universal app of about 2 MB.
How is it different from ⇧⌘4? +
Same gesture, but the capture lands in an editor with annotations, backgrounds and your branding, instead of a PNG on your desktop that still needs another app.
