Mac
NipShot is a lightweight screenshot and screen recording tool designed to stay out of your way until you need it. It lives quietly in the macOS menu bar, giving you fast access to capture, annotation, recording, and sharing tools without interrupting your workflow.
CAPTURE EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED
Select any rectangular area of your screen with precision. Drag to adjust the capture region, view its dimensions in real time, or lock the selection while you work. Once the area is ready, copy it, save it, or keep editing—all from a compact floating toolbar.
ANNOTATE WHILE YOU CAPTURE
Make every screenshot easier to understand with built-in annotation tools. Add rectangles, ellipses, lines, arrows, freehand drawings, highlights, text, and numbered markers. Use mosaic, spotlight, and eraser tools to hide sensitive information or draw attention to important details. Undo, redo, and delete controls make corrections quick and effortless.
RECORD YOUR SCREEN
Record a selected area immediately or start after a 3, 5, or 10-second countdown. Capture system audio when needed, then open the finished video as soon as recording is complete. You can also export a lightweight GIF for quick demonstrations, bug reports, tutorials, and team communication.
FAST, FLEXIBLE WORKFLOW
Customize global shortcuts to match the way you work. Enable launch at login so NipShot is always ready, choose where screenshots are saved, and let timestamp-based filenames keep captures organized automatically. The interface supports multiple languages and can switch instantly from Settings.
KEEP IMPORTANT CONTENT VISIBLE
Pin captured images above other apps for easy reference while writing, designing, coding, comparing information, or joining a meeting. Pinned captures remain available without forcing you to switch repeatedly between windows.
BUILT FOR PRIVACY
Your captures and recordings are processed locally on your Mac. NipShot does not require an account or upload your work to a cloud service. You remain in control of what you capture and where your files are stored.
