Shotbase

macOS capture workspace — screenshots, screen recordings and full-page web captures, edited, auto-organised by on-device AI, and shared as a link.

About Shotbase

Shotbase is a screen capture workspace for macOS that treats the capture as the start rather than the end. It takes screenshots, screen recordings and full-page web captures — the web capture can hit any breakpoint from mobile to desktop, in light or dark mode, and grab the whole page or just the viewport. One editor handles both stills and motion: backgrounds, frames, shadows, borders and watermarks for polish, then arrows, text, highlights, shapes and callouts for the annotation, with automatic zooms and 3D depth for recordings. Everything lands in a single library, where AI running locally on the Mac names, tags and summarises each capture so search actually finds things later — image content is analysed on-device rather than sent to a remote model, which needs Apple silicon. Sharing is a right-click: Shotbase uploads the capture, creates a link, and opens it in the browser for whoever you send it to. $25/month, or $13/month billed yearly, after a 7-day free trial that doesn't ask for a card.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shotbase

What does Shotbase cost?

$25/month billed monthly, or $13/month billed yearly. There is a 7-day free trial and no card is required to start it.

Is the AI private?

Yes — it runs locally on your Mac, so image content is not sent to a remote model for analysis. It requires a Mac with Apple silicon.

Do people need Shotbase to open a link I share?

No. Sharing uploads the capture and creates a link that opens in any browser.

Does it record as well as screenshot?

Both, plus full-page web captures — and the same editor handles stills and recordings, so you never start over in a second app.
