Tired of capturing hundreds of screenshots by hand? Shotomatic is a blazingly-fast way to automate it all — set a desired interval, simulate a keypress between each screenshot, capture entire screen / specific window / custom area.

I often wanted to save or process long eBooks or articles — either to archive them or feed them into AI tools like ChatGPT. Doing it manually was slow and annoying, so I built a macOS app to automate the whole process.
Here’s what it can do:
– Capture screenshots at a custom interval (ex. every 500ms)
– Simulate key presses between shots (like arrow keys or page down)
– Capture entire screen, specific window, or custom area
I mainly use it to archive stuff or feed into ChatGPT/Claude. Thought it might be useful for others doing something similar!

this looks super clean! been looking for something like this for ages (╯︵╰)
honestly feels like a much smarter version of canva's video tools - way more focused on what actually matters for product demos. the ai suggestions are pretty solid too, saves me from overthinking every single cut.
we've been struggling to repurpose our long-form demo videos for different platforms and this might be exactly what we needed. instagram stories, tiktok, linkedin posts - all have different aspect ratios and it's been such a pain manually editing everything.
excited to test this with our upcoming feature launch videos! the batch processing looks like it'll save us hours.
congrats on the launch team, this is gonna help so many product folks like us ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Turning a chore into a streamlined experience is no small feat — and you’ve nailed it. Really appreciate you introducing Shotomatic!
Wow!
Dude, this is a really, really good idea :D
Took me a minute to understand just from the video (at first I thought you were switching pages that fast lol) but then I read the full description
Congrats on the launch!
Interesting. However, I am thinking about who needs to take hundreds of screenshots? I am sure there is a market but just curious. I do take screen shots but with meeting recordings it has significantly decreased.
Very good! It would be amazing if it combined the saved screenshots into a single GIF
Does Shotomatic support OCR (optical character recognition) or offer any built-in features to convert the captured screenshots into editable text for easier input into AI tools?
This must be also really useful when someone need to save the slides(IR deck, Service Introduction) , but can't download.
Awesome product @wooing0306!
This sounds like a fantastic tool for those of us who love to dive into lengthy content and make the most out of it with AI tools. Automating the process is a game changer. Kudos for creating something that fills this gap and makes our digital lives easier! Can't wait to try it out. 🌟
Sounds like exactly what I need! Manually taking screenshots is such a pain—Shotomatic could save me so much time.
