Copy text from anywhere on your screen.
Press a keyboard shortcut, drag over any part of your screen, and the text is in your clipboard — ready to paste. No app switching. No retyping. Just text, instantly.
One Shortcut to Rule Them All
Just like ⌘⇧4 takes a screenshot — ⌘⇧8 captures the text inside it.
Select Any Region
Draw a selection rectangle over any part of your screen, just like the system screenshot tool
Instant Clipboard
Extracted text is automatically copied to your clipboard, ready to paste anywhere
Works Everywhere
Images, PDFs, videos, other apps, web pages, terminal output, error dialogs
100% Offline
Powered by Apple's built-in Vision framework. No data ever leaves your Mac
Lives in Menu Bar
Lightweight menu bar app. No Dock icon, no clutter. Always ready when you need it
Save to File
Optionally append captured text directly to a file instead of the clipboard
Reconstruct Coming Soon
Analyze captured code with Apple's on-device AI. Removes duplicates, fills gaps, and reconstructs clean JSON, Python, Swift, and more — 100% offline.
