Capture a tab or a whole scrolling page, annotate and redact it, then export PNG, JPG, or a smart-split PDF. No upload, no account, no tracking.
One click from the toolbar. Three ways to capture.
Everything below runs locally in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Scrolls the page top to bottom and stitches every screen into one tall image. Content that loads while scrolling is included, sticky headers are hidden so they do not repeat, and your scroll position is restored afterwards.
Grab the visible area of the current tab, or use Chrome's picker to capture any screen, application window, or another tab. Sharing stops the moment the image is taken.
Freehand pen, rectangles, and text in four stroke widths and any colour — drawn straight onto the capture.
Rub out part of a stroke without losing the whole thing. The eraser paints back the real pixels from the screenshot underneath, so it never leaves a white hole.
Cover sensitive details with a solid block. Once you save, the covered pixels are gone from the stored copy — not just hidden from view.
Trim to the part that matters. Undo and redo stay accurate across crops, in both directions.
Export in A4 portrait, A4 landscape, or the whole image on a single page — with the source URL and capture time in the footer if you want them.
Long screenshots do not have to break mid-sentence. Tallshot checks the pixels near each page boundary and cuts on the clearest row it can find.
Every capture is saved with its URL and timestamp, searchable, and reopenable in the editor. It lives in this Chrome profile on this computer only.
A long report, an invoice, a dashboard, an article — Tallshot captures the entire scroll and hands you one image. Up to 32,760 pixels per side and 100 million pixels in total.
Draw, box, label, redact, crop — then copy it to the clipboard or download it. The editor opens with the capture already loaded; there is no upload step and no round trip to a server.
Captures are stored in your browser profile, on your disk. Search them, reopen them, download them again, or delete them. Uninstalling Tallshot removes them with it.
Tallshot has no backend. There is nowhere for your screenshots to go.
Tallshot asks for four permissions and uses each one for exactly one thing.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
activeTab, scripting | Read the current tab's dimensions, capture it, and scroll it during a full-page capture. Only on the tab you explicitly capture. |
storage | Keep your settings and capture history on this device. |
downloads | Save PNG, JPG, and PDF files into your Downloads folder. |
clipboardWrite | Copy a capture to the clipboard when you press Copy. |
