What it does

Snip is a free, open-source macOS screenshot tool with on-device AI. Capture any region with Cmd+Shift+2. Annotate with arrows, text, blur, and AI object segmentation. A local vision model auto-names, tags, and categorizes every saved screenshot. Find anything later by describing it — semantic search powered by local embeddings finds the right screenshot instantly. Segment objects and animate them into GIFs. No cloud, no API keys. 100% private, runs entirely on your Mac.

Visual mode for Claude Code. Also works with Cursor, Windsurf, and Cline. Install Snip and your AI coding agent starts rendering diagrams and previews instead of text. Free, open source. macOS & Linux.
