The editor supports highlighting, blurring sensitive information, drag-and-drop editing, and export to an external editor. Monosnap records video and GIFs, while the Chrome extension can capture desktop, window, or browser content in WebM and GIF and add audio to videos. OCR text extraction, scrolling capture, annotation tools, and shareable links are listed. Supported formats include PNG, JPG, MP4, GIF, WEBM, WEBP, SVG, and MOV. It is available on the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, and as a Chrome extension. The Free plan is free and includes 2 GB storage, a 100 MB single-file upload limit, five-minute video recordings, and 1,000 monthly uploads.

Screention

Screention is a desktop screenshot tool for capturing, annotating, styling, extracting text from, and sharing screenshots. Its capture overlay lets users select screen regions precisely and see pixel dimensions as they work. Annotation options include arrows, shapes, blur, highlighting, 12 preset colors, undo, and redo. Screenshots can be styled with solid or gradient backgrounds, padding, rounded corners, and shadows, then exported as PNG. On-device OCR extracts English text, and QR codes and common 1D barcodes can be scanned without sending images to a cloud service. Captures stay local unless users choose to upload one and copy a view link. A local gallery offers date sorting, search, previews, notes, and clipboard copying. The free plan is free and includes unlimited screenshots, basic annotations, local storage, and standard quality export. Windows, macOS, and Linux are supported; listed requirements include Windows 10/11, macOS 11+, and Linux builds for Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/RHEL, and AppImage. No account, subscription, or email is required to download or use it. The privacy policy says technical device and usage information may be collected, with possible third-party analytics.
