Shotori

The screenshot tool Wayland deserved

Freeze the screen, drag a selection — it flows to the clipboard, a file, plain text, a pinned floating copy, or one long stitched image. Everything runs on your machine.

Everything a screenshot flow needs

From the selection to wherever it needs to go — all local, all editable after the fact.

Wayland-native

Built on wlr-screencopy and layer-shell; at home on niri, sway, Hyprland and other wlroots-adjacent compositors.

Private OCR

Text recognition runs on-device; after a one-time model download, nothing ever leaves your machine.

Long screenshots

Scroll it yourself and watch the stitched page grow in a live side preview — fixed bars that break the flow stop it safely.

Crop a selection into an always-on-top floating image; drag it across screens, scroll to zoom.

Full annotation kit

Shapes, arrows, numbered steps, freehand, highlighter, mosaic/blur and text — all editable and undoable.
