Use ⌘⇧5 on macOS or Ctrl+Shift+5 on Windows. Creator Shots watches, uploads, and copies the link.
Creator Shots alternatives
A sharing tool should feel like part of your thought process.
There are many good capture products. Creator Shots is for people who want native macOS or Windows speed, useful viewer feedback, and a share experience that carries their own brand.
Why Creator Shots
Less ceremony between seeing something and sharing it.
Feedback in context
Reactions live below screenshots or at the exact second of a recording.
Your link, your brand
Pro share pages support your logo and a verified custom domain.
