There’s a reason pros rave about CleanShot X. It doesn’t just take screenshots—it transforms how you capture, annotate, record, share, and collaborate. If you’ve ever fumbled with the default macOS tools, stitched together multiple apps, or wasted minutes hunting for the perfect crop, CleanShot X wraps all of that into one beautifully crafted, lightning‑fast, native Mac experience. It feels like seven apps in one—because it really is.

Instant Control, Zero Friction

The moment you capture anything, CleanShot’s Quick Access overlay appears with the actions you actually need: save, copy, or drag‑and‑drop straight into Slack, Notion, email, or wherever you work. No file‑hunting. No app‑switching. Just done.

Markups That Make You Look Good

Annotations are where most tools fall apart. CleanShot’s intuitive annotation flows let you highlight, draw, blur, point, and polish in seconds. The results are crisp, consistent, and share‑ready—so your feedback, bug reports, and documentation communicate clearly without extra effort.

Record Like a Pro (Without a Pro Setup)

Need video or a GIF? Hit record. CleanShot X delivers screen recording with:

  • Webcam overlays so you can present or explain on camera.

  • Microphone and macOS audio capture so demos and tutorials sound great.

  • Mouse click and keystroke highlights for crystal‑clear walkthroughs.

  • Built‑in trimming to clean the edges before you share.

  • Auto‑hidden notifications so your recordings stay distraction‑free.

Capture Everything—Even What Doesn’t Fit

Web pages, chat threads, code diffs—anything that scrolls, CleanShot’s scrolling capture grabs it cleanly, without ugly seams or manual stitching. It’s the “how did I live without this?” feature you’ll use daily.

Share Instantly with CleanShot Cloud

Skip attachments. With CleanShot Cloud, you upload and get a link in one click. Upgrade to Pro for custom domains, branding, and team management, keeping everything on‑brand and organized. Collaboration finally feels effortless.

Smart Power Features for Real Work

  • Background tool to turn screenshots into polished social posts with beautiful backdrops.

  • Text recognition (OCR) to copy non‑selectable text from images in a blink.

  • Pin screenshots so references float above your work—always visible, always useful.

  • Hide desktop icons for clean recordings and presentations (or hide them permanently).

  • Self‑timer, crosshair mode, Retina scale‑down, custom wallpaper, and more to tailor your workflow exactly how you like it.

Built for Speed. Built for Mac.

CleanShot X is native, Apple Silicon optimized, and macOS Tahoe ready. It’s fast, stable, and feels invisible—the tool that just works, and then gets out of the way.
