Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 Whenever I'm coding, researching, or designing, standard screenshot tools dump images into a messy desktop folder that I have to find and open in another app. I built SilkySnip to turn screenshots into actionable, floating overlays: • Floating Pinned Overlays: Pin captures right on top of your workspace so you never lose your visual reference while switching tabs. • On-Device Local OCR: Extract non-selectable text, code, or receipts from any part of your screen instantly without cloud lag or privacy risks. • Fast Annotation & Redaction: Draw, highlight, or blur sensitive data in one click before sharing. • Offline & Fast: Lightweight native desktop performance on both macOS and Windows. • One-time payment: No forced monthly subscriptions for a desktop utility. Would love to hear your feedback on the overlay UX and shortcut flows!
