Shotomatic

Set any interval and Shotomatic grabs your screen until it hits the stop condition you chose, whether that's a count, a duration, or an end time. Recurring schedules can be saved as presets for the next session. You stay in your app while the captures stack up in order. It's the core of hands-free capture, and it removes the need to hit a shortcut every few seconds.

Instead of capturing on a timer, Action Capture watches your clicks. Each accepted click becomes an ordered page with the action marked so readers know exactly where to tap. You click through a task once and end up with an editable guide rather than a pile of raw shots.

You can paste a list of URLs in bulk and let Shotomatic capture each page. Per-URL options let you preview a page and adjust viewport, timing, cookies, format, and quality before the batch runs. Finished screenshots sit next to the URL list, then export as ZIP, images, PDF, or MP4.

A single keystroke can fire between shots, which is how Shotomatic steps through menus, pages, or tests on its own. Archiving a webcomic or a document just needs the next-page key recorded once. It's the feature that turns a static capture loop into an actual workflow.

Long sessions can be exported as MP4, so a timelapse from screenshots shrinks hours of work into a short, smooth video. That's useful for tutorials, client updates, or simply showing how a screen changed over time. The same sessions still export to JPG, PNG, PDF, or ZIP when you need stills.

Captures stay on your Mac. Shotomatic works entirely offline and doesn't upload your screenshots anywhere unless you move or share the exported files yourself. For anyone capturing sensitive or internal screens, that's a real reason to pick it over cloud tools.
