Droplr vs Easy Screen OCR

Droplr captures screenshots and screen recordings, stores them in the cloud, and creates links for sharing. Users can capture part or all of a screen or an entire webpage, then mark screenshots with text, highlights, lines, circles, arrows, or boxes. Recordings can include an optional webcam and be saved as GIFs or HD video; the listed GIF recording duration is unlimited. Droplr also accepts drag-and-drop file uploads up to 10GB and includes a URL shortener with click analytics. Listed integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Docs, Gmail, Atlassian Jira, Intercom, Photoshop, and Sketch. The Slack integration supports browser-based screenshot annotation and sharing files as short links with rich document previews. Droplr is available on macOS, Windows, and the web, along with Chrome and Edge extensions; PNG, WebM, and MPEG-4 are listed export formats. Droplr says data moving to or from its service is encrypted in transit using 256-bit encryption and that its services and data are hosted in AWS facilities in the us-west-2 region. Pricing starts at $6/mo (annual), with a 3-day trial and no free plan.

Easy Screen OCR is a macOS desktop app that captures a selected screen area and turns text in screenshots or other images into editable text. After screen-recording permission is enabled, a customizable hotkey takes the screenshot and copies the recognized text to the clipboard. The app lists more than 100 OCR languages, automatic language detection, and translation for recognized text. Its history stores earlier OCR results, screenshots, recognized text, and translations. OCR is described as running locally and offline, without uploads. The free plan is listed at free and includes full functionality, batch OCR for up to five images, and translation up to 1,000 characters. Pro adds larger batch jobs and extended translation capacity. Monthly, yearly, and lifetime plans are listed without prices. macOS 13.0 or later is required.
