One interface, five high-value capture moves.

Everything is tuned for fast intent recognition: the product reads as premium, local and precise before a user even downloads it.

capture

Screen capture

Start from the menu bar, frame the area quickly and keep selection helpers visible without clutter.

longshot

Longshot stitching

Capture extended vertical flows while keeping fixed chrome out of the final export.

gif

Region and window GIF recording

Record short visual explanations from a custom region or a visible window with minimal friction.

text

OCR and translation

Read text from images, select it directly and translate the current selection without leaving the moment.

The path from intent to export is short and legible.

Select, shape and ship without switching mental modes. The whole site mirrors that same product rhythm.

01

Select with confidence

Crosshair, magnifier and remembered regions reduce miss-clicks before the capture even starts.

02

Shape the result

Choose still image, longshot or GIF depending on the story you need to tell, not on tool limitations.

03

Export with context

Ship polished output fast, keep files local and keep the path to Finder, copy or follow-up actions obvious.

The product surface is small, but the signals are strong.

Menu bar launch, editor follow-up and settings clarity are the three moments that make Capter feel distinct.

Surface A

Menu bar launchpad

A compact control surface with the four actions people expect to reach instantly.

Surface B

Focused editor state

Text extraction and translation sit close to the image, so post-capture work stays short.

Surface C

Predictable preferences

Hotkeys, export defaults and capture tuning stay easy to scan instead of hiding behind noise.

Download and permission setup should never feel vague.

The site makes the first-run path explicit so users know exactly what to install, where to move it and why screen capture permission matters.

01

Choose your installer

Use DMG for the familiar drag-to-Applications path, or PKG when you want a guided installer.

02

Move Capter to Applications

Running from a temporary translocation path can break permissions, so the site makes the destination explicit.

03

Grant screen recording once

Capter asks only for the permission required to capture and record the screen. No account, sync or cloud upload is required.
