How it works
Paste. Handle it. Post it.
Shotglass is a screenshot beautifier with real light. It turns a raw capture into an image ready for a launch thread, a changelog, a pull request, docs or a deck in about fifteen seconds, without leaving the browser tab you opened it in.
Paste
Press ⌘V or Ctrl V anywhere on the page, drop a file onto the stage, or tap to choose one. The shot lands on a backdrop cut from its own colors.
Handle it
Grab the shot and it tilts in real 3D, with weight and momentum until friction brings it to rest. Press anywhere on the backdrop and the light moves there; the shadow swings and a glare slides across the glass.
Post it
Copy the PNG to your clipboard, save it at up to 3×, share it from your phone, or drag the thumbnail into Slack, Figma or your desktop.
Every result travels
It leaves however you need it to.
The image
A crisp PNG at 1×, 2× or 3×, straight to the clipboard or to a file. The clear backdrop keeps transparency.
The look link
Your whole look rides in the URL. Send it to someone and their screenshot comes out styled the same way. Your image never goes in the link.
The CSS
The same backdrop, tilt, corners and light-matched shadows as plain CSS, ready for a real <img> on your landing page.
The right size
16:9 for X and YouTube, 1200 × 630 for link cards, 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 stories, 4:3, or Auto to fit the shot exactly.
Private by construction
Your pixels never leave this tab.
No uploads
Rendering runs on your own GPU through WebGL in a background thread. There is no server that could receive your image, so it never does.
Secrets erased, not blurred
Erase replaces the pixels under an API key, an email or a name with what surrounds them. Blur and pixelation can sometimes be reversed; replaced pixels can’t.
No account, no tracking
No sign-up, no analytics, no cookies, no third-party anything. The only thing Shotglass remembers is a look you star, kept in this browser until you forget it.
Works offline
After the first visit the app caches itself. Lose your connection and it keeps working exactly the same.

Questions
Asked and answered.
Is Shotglass free?
Yes, completely. There is no sign-up, no watermark, no pro tier and no limit on how many images you make. Open the page and start.
Are my screenshots uploaded anywhere?
No. Decoding, rendering, erasing and exporting all happen inside your browser tab, on your own device. Shotglass has no server that receives images, no analytics and no cookies. You can turn off your network after the page loads and it keeps working.
Can I hide API keys, emails or names before I post?
Yes. Press E (or Erase in the panel) and drag a box over what you want gone. Blend mode fills it from the pixels around it, as if it was never there. Bar mode lays down a solid redaction bar. The original pixels are replaced in the image before export, unlike blur or pixelation, which can sometimes be reversed.
What sizes can I export?
Auto fits the canvas to your screenshot. There are presets for 16:9 (X, YouTube, slides), 1200 × 630 link cards (Open Graph, LinkedIn), 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 stories and 4:3. Each exports as a PNG at 1×, 2× or 3×, and the clear backdrop keeps transparency.
How do I share a look with someone?
Press Copy look link (or L). The link carries the whole look: backdrop, size, frame, tilt, light, shadow, glare and grain. It never includes your screenshot. Whoever opens it pastes their own image and gets the same style. The address bar always holds the current look too.
Can I use the same effect on my website?
Yes. Copy CSS gives you the backdrop, perspective tilt, corner radius and light-matched shadows as plain CSS for a real image element. No library and no build step.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Tap to choose a screenshot or paste one, drag with one finger to tilt, press the backdrop to move the light, pinch to resize, then share the PNG straight from the share sheet.
Does Shotglass work offline?
After your first visit, yes. The app caches itself, and since nothing ever needed a server, it works the same with no connection.
