01 Precision capture for Windows

Capture exactly.
Keep everything yours.

Snip Wizard turns a screenshot into a clean working document: crop, mark up, safely redact, copy, export, and read text with Windows’ local OCR. Your pixels never need to leave the device.

02 The capture instrument

Measure the moment before you keep it.

Drag inside the preview. This local interaction models Snip Wizard’s physical-pixel selection and adaptive dimension counter; it does not capture or upload your screen.

03 One exact workflow

From pixels to finished proof.

01

Capture without compromise

Region, window, and cross-monitor capture through Windows Graphics Capture, with DPI-correct geometry and an HDR-aware color path.

PHYSICAL PIXELS
02

Edit as a document

Crop, arrows, rectangles, text, undo and redo stay editable until export. Safe redaction is rendered opaque into the final pixels.

NON-DESTRUCTIVE
03

Read text locally

Windows.Media.Ocr reads the flattened capture on the PC. There is no cloud fallback, hidden download, remote model, or account.

WINDOWS OCR
04

Leave cleanly

Copy a standards-correct DIB to the clipboard or export PNG and JPEG. The finished file goes only where you choose.

04 Privacy architecture

No backend is the feature.

Snip Wizard is intentionally different from the products being migrated to Firebase. Screen contents, OCR text, edits, and exports stay on the Windows device. Adding a database, login, analytics SDK, or cloud processor would make this product worse, not more complete.

  • No sign-inOpen it and work.
  • No network dependencyCapture and OCR remain available offline.
  • No telemetryNo usage trail is silently created.
  • Capture protectionSnip Wizard’s own windows are excluded from capture where Windows supports it.

05 Release truth

The product works. Public signing is the remaining boundary.

The native capture, editor, local OCR, privacy, and packaged-development smoke gates are verified on Windows. A public download is not shown yet because the current MSIX is development-signed; the release becomes public only after a trusted production signing path is in place.
