What is OpenCapture?
OpenCapture captures an entire scrolling web page as one seamless image, then lets you crop, annotate, blur or redact anything sensitive, and export the result to PNG or PDF.
What sets it apart from most full-page screenshot extensions is where the work happens: every pixel operation runs locally in a Rust/WebAssembly core inside your own browser. No account is required, nothing is uploaded, and no server ever receives the page you captured. Awesome Screenshot and Lightshot route captures through their own infrastructure; ShareX keeps everything local but is Windows-only and not a browser extension.
The extension is open source under AGPL-3.0, so the privacy claim is auditable rather than a promise.
Annotation includes crop, arrow, rectangle, text and blur, and every edit stays reversible until you export. Three capture modes are available — full page, visible area, and selected region — and the last 50 captures stay available in a local history that never syncs anywhere.
Everything is free. The only paid feature is watermarking — a tiled logo or text across exports with adjustable opacity, position and angle — unlocked with a one-time credit purchase rather than a subscription.
