Chrome extension · end-to-end encrypted sharing

The private screenshot tool for teams that handle sensitive data

Capture a screen or a full page, blur customer details and mark it up in seconds. Every screenshot stays on your device until you share it, and then it is encrypted before it leaves, so customer data never ends up somewhere it shouldn't.

  • Private by default
  • Blur before anything leaves your screen
  • End-to-end encrypted share links
  • Capture and blur free, for every seat

Blur sensitive data

Redact customer data before anyone sees it

Most leaks from screenshots aren't hacks. Someone forgets to hide a customer's details before posting. Screshot puts blur next to the arrow and the box, so hiding them takes a second.

  • Hide it in one drag

    Emails, names, card numbers, API keys, internal URLs. Select the blur tool (Ctrl+Alt+B) and drag over them.

  • Blurred for good

    The blur is written into the image pixels, not laid on top. The image you copy or download contains nothing to un-blur.

  • Blurred before it goes anywhere

    Redaction happens on your computer, before the image reaches the clipboard, a file or a share link. The unblurred original never leaves the editor.

Product

Everything a clear screenshot needs, nothing it doesn't

One extension replaces the screenshot app, the image editor and the redaction step.

Capture the visible area

One click or Ctrl+Shift+S. Drag to keep only the part you need, or double-click to keep it all.

A long web page stitched into a single image in the Screshot full-page viewer

Full-page capture

Right-click the icon and choose Capture full page. Screshot scrolls for you and stitches one image, without repeating sticky headers.

A support ticket where the customer's email and card number are blurred

Blur sensitive details

Hide emails, names, tokens and card numbers in one drag. The original pixels are removed, so nothing can be un-blurred.

An error message boxed in red with an arrow pointing at it, and the priority highlighted

Annotate clearly

Arrows, boxes, ellipses, highlighter, pen and text in any color, with full undo and redo.

An annotated screenshot pasted into a team chat channel

Paste anywhere

Copy to the clipboard and paste into Jira, Slack, Teams, Zendesk or email. Or download a PNG.

Clear progress, cancel anytime

A progress bar shows how far a full-page capture has got. Input is paused so nothing shifts; press Esc to stop.

End-to-end encrypted

Share by link

A share link nobody else can read. Not even us.

When a paste isn't enough, click Share. Screshot encrypts the screenshot on your device, uploads only the encrypted file, and gives the key to the people you choose.

  1. Step 1

    Encrypted on your device

    A new key is made for each screenshot. The image is encrypted with it before anything is uploaded.

  2. Step 2

    Only ciphertext is stored

    Our servers and storage hold an encrypted file and never the key, so nobody at Screshot can open it.

  3. Step 3

    The key goes only to who you choose

    To you, to the people you invite, or inside a public link. Changing your mind changes who has the key.

The Share panel in the Screshot editor: the screenshot is end-to-end encrypted, with a link to copy and a choice of Only me, Invited people or Anyone with the link
Default

Only me

The default for every new link. Only your own key opens it.

Invited people

The key is wrapped for each person you invite, so only they can open it.

Anyone with the link

The key travels in the link itself, after the #. Browsers never send that part to us.

  • Encrypted in your browser before upload. Screshot stores only the encrypted file
  • Only the cropped, blurred image you see is shared, never the original capture
  • Switch who can view at any time, without uploading again
  • Remove someone or make a link private and it stops working on the next open
  • Unlock on any device with a passkey, or the recovery code only you keep
  • No selling, no advertising, no training AI on your screenshots

Privacy by design

Your device by default. The cloud only when you choose.

Many screenshot tools upload every capture automatically. Screshot starts on your device and lets each person decide, one screenshot at a time, what goes to the cloud and who can see it.

  • Capture, blur and annotate in a page packaged inside the extension, on your device
  • Copy and download go straight to your clipboard or disk, with nothing uploaded
  • No account needed to capture. You sign in with Google only when you want to share
  • Each person decides where an image goes: clipboard, download or an end-to-end encrypted link

Only if you choose to, and then only encrypted. Screshot captures the tab you are looking at and opens it in an editor inside your browser, so capturing, blurring, copying and downloading upload nothing. When you click Share, the screenshot is end-to-end encrypted on your device before upload: Screshot stores only the encrypted file and never has the key, and every new link is visible only to you until you change it. There is no tracking inside the extension.

No. The blur is written into the image pixels themselves, not added as a layer on top. The image you copy or download contains no original pixels under the blurred area, so there is nothing to recover.

Yes. Click Share in the editor and Screshot encrypts the screenshot on your device, uploads the encrypted file and gives you a link. Every link starts as Only me. Switch it to Invited people (each person you invite gets the key, wrapped for them) or Anyone with the link (the key travels in the link after the #, which browsers never send to a server). You can change who can view, remove someone or delete the screenshot at any time, and the change applies the next time the link is opened.

How the encryption works →

Five, and none of them shows a warning when you install. "activeTab" lets Screshot capture the tab in front of you, only at the moment you click the icon or use a shortcut. "scripting" lets it scroll that same tab during a full-page capture and then put it back exactly as it was. "contextMenus" adds the right-click menu on the Screshot icon. "storage" keeps your sign-in on this device, and "identity" opens Google sign-in when you choose to share. Screshot cannot read your browsing history or see tabs you did not capture.

Not to capture, blur, annotate, copy or download. Those work right after you install, with no sign-up. To share by link, you sign in with your Google account, in the extension or on screshot.com (signing in to one signs in the other), and turn on encryption once with a passkey and a recovery code.

Yes. Screshot is a standard Chrome Web Store extension, so it can be force-installed and pinned for any group of users from the Google Admin console, Microsoft Intune or Windows Group Policy. Capture and blur need no accounts or licenses, and sharing by link stays off for each person until they sign in and turn on encryption.

See the deployment guide →

Capturing, blurring, annotating, copying and downloading are free for individuals and organizations of any size, and we are committed to keeping them free. Sharing by link currently includes 1 GB of encrypted storage per account at no charge. If you need something specific for your rollout, get in touch with our team.

Screshot is a free Chrome extension for taking screenshots and marking them up. Capture the visible area or the whole page, then crop, draw, add text and blur private details in a built-in editor, and download it or copy it to the clipboard.

Visible area: click the Screshot icon or press Ctrl+Shift+S. Full page: right-click the icon and choose "Capture full page", or press Alt+Shift+S. Screshot scrolls the page for you, stitches it into one image and opens it in a new tab where you can scroll through it, copy it or download it. For visible-area captures, the editor lets you drag to keep only part of the image, or double-click to select all of it.

Crop, blur (to hide emails, names or tokens), pencil, straight line, arrow, rectangle, ellipse, highlighter and text, with a color picker and undo/redo. Blurred areas cannot be un-blurred from the exported image.

Click Download to save a PNG to your computer, or Copy to put the image on your clipboard so you can paste it straight into Slack, Gmail, Google Docs, Jira or any other app. To share a link instead, click Share: the screenshot is end-to-end encrypted before it is uploaded.

It works on almost all websites. Chrome does not let extensions capture its own pages, such as chrome:// settings and the Chrome Web Store, so the icon will not work there. This is a browser rule, not a bug.

First make sure Screshot is up to date and refresh the page you are capturing. If the problem continues, or you want to suggest a feature, send us a message from the contact page. We read every message.
