Capturo

One price, paid once

Pay once. Keep it.

A screenshot app is a tool, not a service. Capturo is sold the way tools used to be sold: you buy it, and then it is yours.

Everything is included

  • 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 this is not a subscription

Subscriptions make sense when the vendor pays a bill every time you use the thing. Capturo runs entirely on your Mac, so there is no bill to pass on.

Nothing is metered

With a license there are no capture limits and no export quotas. Take ten screenshots today or four hundred; it costs the same.

Nothing is uploaded

Captures and recordings are written on your Mac and stay there. There is no account and no cloud, which is a simpler privacy promise than any policy page can make.

Nothing expires

The app does not stop working if a company does. Your license does not lapse, and a version that works today keeps working.

Made by one developer

Capturo is one person's app, sold directly. That is why it is about 2 MB and opens instantly: nobody is asking for an onboarding flow or a growth metric. Bug reports reach the person who writes the code, and payments and license keys are handled by Polar, so your card details never touch this site.

Common questions

Is $29 really the whole price? +
Yes. One payment, no renewal and no pro tier holding features back. Updates after it are free, including the ones that add features.
What if I buy it and change my mind? +
You have 30 days to email [email protected] and get the money back. No form and no reason needed.
What works without a license? +
Screenshots still work, but exports carry a small watermark and screen recording stays locked. Enter a key and both open up; nothing you already captured is touched.
Is there a free trial? +
No, and that is deliberate. A trial that expires takes the tool away right after you built the habit around it. The 30-day guarantee covers the same worry from the other side: you carry no risk at any point.
Where does the license key come from? +
It arrives by email right after checkout, and you paste it into the app from the menu bar.
Does the price go up later? +
The license you buy today keeps working at the price you paid, whatever the price becomes for new buyers.
What do I need to run it? +
A Mac on macOS 14 or later, Apple Silicon or Intel. The download is about 2 MB.

$29, and 30 days to be sure

One payment, every update from here on. If it does not earn its keep in the first month, you get the money back.
