Region, fullscreen, active-window, and scrolling capture in one ShareX-style workflow.

AI Redirects

Open ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Google Lens right after capture, then keep the image pinned and ready to drag or paste into the chat box.

Upscale

Capture any region into the new Upscale workflow, compare before and after, and run it locally with SwinIR x4 or Real-ESRGAN x4plus. Local is the default, with optional API providers if you want them.

Sticker creation

Remove backgrounds and turn screenshots into polished stickers with optional stroke and shadow finishing.

OCR + translation

Extract text from any screen region into a dedicated result window where you can edit, copy, and translate with local or cloud-backed providers.
Yoink OCR and translation

Global hotkeys + tray

Launch capture, OCR, color picking, recording, history, and more from system-wide hotkeys or the tray menu without breaking your flow.

Recording / scrolling captures

Record GIFs and videos in multiple formats with optional microphone and desktop audio capture, and capture long scrolling regions without stitching them manually.
Yoink recording

Searchable history

Find past captures by filename, OCR text, or semantic similarity so you can recover screenshots by meaning, not just date.
Yoink searchable history

Built-in annotation

Arrows, text, shapes, blur, and freehand markup are built into the same fast capture workflow with cleaner stroke and shadow effects.

100+ OCR languages

Download language packs on demand for multilingual OCR and translation workflows without turning the app into a cloud-only tool.
Yoink OCR language support

Utility tools

Color picker, QR and barcode scanning, ruler tools, and step numbering live alongside capture instead of being split across separate apps.
