1Capture is a screenshot and screen recording app for Mac that makes it easier to show what you mean. Grab a window, full screen, or long scrolling page, then add arrows, notes, and highlights so the details are clear. Whether you're reporting a bug, reviewing a design, or explaining a change to an AI assistant, you can turn a quick capture into useful visual feedback. And when a picture isn't enough, record a video or GIF.

  • Capture any screen, even long pages

  • Mark up screenshots to explain ideas

  • Record videos and GIFs in a click

  • Share clearer feedback with AI tools

1Capture features


Capture exactly what you need

Grab a selected area, a window, the entire screen, or scrolling content—even long webpages and horizontally scrolling views. Set up your favorite keyboard shortcuts, then copy, save, or drag screenshots straight into other apps. No extra steps, no hunting for files.


Point to what matters

A screenshot can show the problem. A few annotations can explain it. Add arrows, shapes, text, highlights, numbered steps, and freehand drawings to make your message clear. Spotlight or magnify important details, and blur or pixelate anything you'd rather keep private.


Show it in motion

Some things are easier to show than describe. Record your screen as a video or GIF to demonstrate a workflow, reproduce a bug, or create a quick tutorial. Add click effects and recording annotations to help viewers follow every step.


Give AI a clearer picture

Working with an AI assistant on a website, interface, or image? Instead of describing every detail in a long prompt, take a screenshot and mark what needs to change. Share the annotated image with tools like ChatGPT or Claude to provide clearer visual context. Sometimes an arrow says more than a paragraph.


Make screenshots look their best

Turn everyday captures into polished visuals with backgrounds, spacing, and watermarks. Remove distracting objects using the AI eraser, or cut out an image background when you need a cleaner result. Handy for presentations, documentation, and anything worth sharing.


Keep useful tools close

Extract text from images with OCR, recognize QR codes, and pick colors directly from your screen. Pin screenshots, images, or clipboard text above other windows so important references stay within sight. Everything comes together in a native Mac app with a clean interface and local-first handling of your captures.
