KelpShot
Screenshots that say what you mean.
KelpShot is a fast, private screenshot tool for macOS: capture, annotate, redact, recognize text, and share in seconds. One-time purchase, no subscription.
I built KelpShot because I take dozens of screenshots a day to explain bugs, point at details, and show people what to do next. Every time, the screenshot was the easy part. Adding an arrow, hiding an email address, or copying text out of the image was the slow part.
KelpShot is a native macOS screenshot app that keeps all of that in one flow:
Capture an area, a window, the whole screen, or a long scrolling page (drag the selection to the screen edge and it keeps scrolling)
Explain with arrows (straight or curved), text, numbered steps, highlights, a spotlight, and a magnifier
Hide what's private with solid redaction, or let Redact Text find the words for you
Copy text out of any screenshot, recognized right on your Mac
Copy, save, drag, or pin the result above other windows
Everything stays on your Mac: no account, no cloud, and the only network request is an optional update check.
It's early access: not signed by Apple yet (that's $99 a year, and license sales are paying for it), so macOS asks you to confirm the first time you open it. The install guide shows the checksum for every build, and the signed version will be a free update.
Personal is $8.99 and Supporter $18.99, one-time, with every 1.x update included. There's a free 30-day trial, and this week code PRODUCTHUNT takes 25% off.

Who hunted KelpShot?
KelpShot was hunted by Harry Suryapambagya. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
