Fast captures for real work.

PinPane is built for the small moments where always-on-top screenshots help you compare, copy, report, explain, or follow steps in another window.

Capture what matters

Use Print Screen shortcuts for a region, active window, or all displays.

Pin above your work

Keep a screenshot visible as an always-on-top reference pane.

Mark up quickly

Annotate with pen, highlighter, shapes, text, crop, undo, and redo.

Copy, save, or drag

Move captures into your clipboard, files, documents, chats, and bug reports.

Three steps, then back to work.

PinPane keeps the screenshot flow short: capture what matters, keep it visible, then send it where it needs to go.

Capture preview

Take a screenshot and choose what to do next from one small preview window.

Pinned pane

Pin a capture above your workspace so details stay visible while you work.

Annotation tools

Mark up the image with pen, highlighter, shapes, text, crop, undo, and redo.

Copy, save, or drag

Send the result to your clipboard, a file, or another app without managing a workspace.

Local-first by default

Your screenshots stay on your PC unless you choose otherwise.

PinPane does not require an account and does not ask for your name, email address, location, contacts, or payment information. Screenshots are used only to provide capture, preview, copy, annotate, pin, drag, save, and recent-capture features.
