--- about
ohsnp.
a local-first macOS app that turns screenshots into searchable, AI-organized notes
the problem
You take thousands of screenshots every year. Meeting notes, error logs, design references, receipts, conversations. They all land on your desktop or in a screenshots folder, named with timestamps nobody can read. When you need to find one, you scroll through hundreds of identical-looking thumbnails hoping something jogs your memory. Most of the time, you give up.
the approach
ohsnp sits in your macOS menu bar and watches for new screenshots. When you take one, it pops up a small capture window where you can add context — a quick voice note or a few typed words about why you took it. Then AI analyzes the screenshot, extracts text, generates tags, and turns it into a searchable note. Everything is stored locally on your Mac in a SQLite database. No cloud uploads, no data mining. Your screenshots, your device, your data.
the builder
ohsnp is built by alesmdotdev — a solo developer who got tired of losing screenshots. The app is built with Tauri (Rust + WebView), React, and a local-first architecture that prioritizes privacy and speed. The goal is simple: make screenshots useful without making you change how you work.
