captureit

CaptureIt is a name used by multiple software tools and services that provide screen capture capabilities. It is not a single product but a branding adopted by different developers for various platforms, including desktop applications, browser extensions, and mobile apps. The common goal of tools bearing this name is to enable users to capture visual content from a computer screen or application and to save, edit, or share the result.

Typical CaptureIt tools offer core options such as capturing the entire screen, a user-selected rectangular region, or a specific window. They may provide keyboard shortcuts, simple annotation tools (such as arrows, text, and highlights), and export options to common image formats like PNG or JPEG. Several variants also offer quick sharing or upload to cloud storage, or integration with issue trackers and collaboration platforms to aid reporting and documentation.

Because CaptureIt is used by independent developers, the exact features, interface, and performance can vary widely between implementations. Some projects emphasize lightweight operation and configurability, while others target broader workflows, combining capture with basic editing and organizing features. In some contexts the term is used generically to describe any screenshot function rather than a particular product.
