What is Capture Core?

Capture Core is an all-in-one screenshot app for Windows. A screenshot is rarely finished the moment you take it, so the app covers what comes after: editing, reading, organising, and moving it to your other machines.

Capture a region, the active window, a full screen across multiple monitors, or a long page with scrolling capture, which scrolls the area for you and stitches the result into one tall image.

Annotations are kept as layers rather than burned into the image, so arrows, numbered badges, blur masks and text can be moved or recoloured long after saving.

OCR runs entirely on your machine. Recognised text becomes an index, so you can find a screenshot by the words inside it. Regions can also be translated through DeepL, Azure, Google or LibreTranslate with your own API key.

Screenshots sync directly between your own Windows PCs and Android devices, paired with a QR code. There is no cloud relay and no account.

Also included: clipboard history, reusable text snippets, an encrypted vault, an edge launcher that works over fullscreen video, a quick tray that stacks fresh shots at the screen edge, and a generator that turns screenshots into a numbered how-to in HTML, DOCX or PDF.

One-time purchase. The free edition has no time limit and never watermarks your images; it is licensed for personal use, and business use needs the Pro licence. Every Pro feature can be tried free for 14 days from inside the app.
