Screenshot organizer.
Actually searchable.
Screenbase turns screenshots into a local-first library — organize collections, annotate why you saved them, and search what you meant to keep.
Empty states that still feel like a product.

Too many screenshots. Nowhere to put them.
You screenshotted it on purpose — a UI pattern, a receipt, a booking, a spark of inspiration. Then it vanished into Camera Roll between a meme and a blurry photo. Photos treats screenshots like clutter. Screenbase treats them like a reference library worth organizing.
Organize screenshots in three steps.
Screenbase doesn't ask you to import a second photo library. If a screenshot exists in Photos, it's already ready to manage, annotate, and search.
It finds them

Search finds it

Does Screenbase upload my screenshots?+
No. Your screenshots stay on your devices. Screenbase does not require an account and does not operate cloud storage for your screenshot library. Image analysis and OCR happen on-device wherever possible.
Does it replace Photos?+
No. Photos remains the system of record. Screenbase stores references and metadata — notes, tags, collections — rather than duplicating every image.
Do I need an account?+
No. Open the app, grant Photos access, and your existing screenshots appear. That's the whole setup.
How does search work without uploading?+
Free search covers your annotations, tags, collection names, and available metadata. Pro OCR search also matches text detected inside screenshots — still indexed locally. A query like “free trial” can hit any of those.
What if I delete a screenshot from Photos?+
Screenbase keeps the organizational record where it can. The original image is gone, but your annotation, tags, collection membership, and original date stay visible in a missing-asset state.
What’s free vs Pro?+
Free: library, annotations, markup, creating collections and tags, plus metadata search (notes, tags, collection names). Pro ($79.99/year or $7.99/month): OCR search, AI collections, smart tagging, and auto group. Still a fraction of a design-library subscription — and it’s your screenshots, not someone else’s.
Why a subscription instead of one-time?+
Manual organization stays free. Pro funds the AI organization layer, on-device OCR search, and ongoing development. Annual saves vs monthly if you live in retrieval every week.
When is Mac coming?+
iPhone ships first. macOS is next, so a screenshot captured on your phone is waiting when you sit down at the desk. iPad follows.
The next screenshot is coming. You'll actually find it.
