Screenshot it. Mark it up.
Send the link.
Kadrr freezes your screen, opens a real annotation editor and drops a short kadrr.cc link into your clipboard, in about a second. It also records the screen, with a real editor for the result: cut it, speed it up, zoom in, hide what's private. And it copies text off anything you can see. What CleanShot X is on a Mac, Kadrr is on Windows.
Three seconds, from the bug to the link.
A QA engineer files twenty reports before lunch. A support agent has to show a customer which field is wrong. Both want the same thing: capture, point at it, paste.
-
Press the key
The whole desktop freezes the instant the shortcut fires. Drag an area, or click a window to take it edge to edge.
-
Point at the thing
An arrow, a numbered step, a box, a blurred email address. Every tool has a single key, so it becomes muscle memory.
-
Paste the link
Upload, and a short kadrr.cc link is already in your clipboard. The person on the other end needs no app and no account.
The screen stops moving the moment you hit the key.
Nothing scrolls away and no tooltip vanishes while you drag, because you are choosing from a still image of the desktop.
Frozen, then framed
The desktop is snapshotted first. What you see while you select is exactly what lands in the file.
A wrong edge is a nudge
Letting go of the mouse does not fire the shot. The selection stays with eight handles, so you fix an edge instead of starting over.
Click to take a window
Click instead of drag and Kadrr adopts the window under the cursor, to its exact bounds.
Every monitor, one surface
Two screens, three, mixed scaling. Drag a selection across the seam as if it were one display.
Kadrr stays out of frame
The app, its tray menu and its recording controls are hidden from its own captures. No stray toolbar in your bug report.
Or bring your own file
Drop images and videos you already have onto the window, or pick them from the tray. Each one comes back as a link.
Ten tools. Ten single keys.
A for an arrow, N for the next numbered step, B to pixelate a customer's email before it leaves your machine. Undo and redo as many times as you like.
Copy the text you can see but can't select.
An error in a dialog, a code in a video call, a line inside a screenshot someone sent you. Press Ctrl+Shift+1, drag over it, and the text is in your clipboard.
- Offline. It runs on the text recognition built into Windows. Nothing is uploaded to read it.
- No extra click. Let go of the mouse and it reads. Lines stay lines.
- Your languages. Kadrr uses the Windows language packs you have installed.
Some bugs need a video. Some need a GIF.
Record the repro instead of describing it. Kadrr writes MP4 on your GPU, so a long recording doesn't turn your fans on, and falls back to the CPU when the GPU can't.
- 3, 2, 1. A countdown over the area you picked gives you time to get ready. Choose 3, 5 or 10 seconds, or none. New
- Edit before you share. Cut, speed up, zoom in and hide what's private in the video editor. New
- Pause and resume. Skip the part where you look for the right tab.
- GIF in one click. Turn a recording into a looping GIF for a README, a ticket or a chat that won't play video. New
- Narrate it. Pick a microphone and talk through the steps.
Fix the recording before anyone sees it.
Every recording opens in a real editor. Cut out the waiting, speed up the slow part, zoom in on the bug, hide what's private and point at what matters. Your original file is never touched.
Cut like a real editor
Split at the playhead with S, press Delete, and the gap closes. Drag a clip's edge to trim it.
Speed, clip by clip
Run the loading spinner at 4× and keep the part that matters as recorded. Each clip has its own speed, sound included.
Zoom that moves
Click where to look. The view eases in, holds, and eases back out, so a small button fills the frame when it matters.
A magnifier
A round lens over a tiny detail, like an error under a field, while the rest of the screen stays in view.
Hide what's private
Pixelate an email or a token for exactly the seconds it is on screen. It stays on it through every cut and speed change.
Arrows, text, numbers
The screenshot editor's tools, on video: arrow, box, text, numbered step, highlight. Each one stays up as long as you choose.
Crop with 16:9, 4:3, 1:1 or 9:16 presets. Export MP4 or GIF at full size, 1080p, 720p or 480p, then save it next to the original or upload it and get the link.
The upload ends with the link already in your clipboard.
No dialog and no copy button to find. Paste it into Jira, Slack or a reply to a customer. They open a clean page with your image or video on it, and nothing to install.
Every capture is still there tomorrow.
Kadrr keeps a list of everything you've taken and uploaded. Copy a link again, reopen a shot to add one more arrow, make a GIF from last week's recording, or show the file in its folder.
- Filter by images, videos, or what has a link.
- Deleted the file? If it was uploaded, restore it from the link.
Small things you notice on day two.
Tray menu
Lives next to the clock. Capture, record, copy text or upload without opening a window.
Shortcuts you choose
Four global keys, each rebindable to whatever your hands already do.
Light and dark
Follows your Windows theme, or stays on the one you prefer.
Your save folder
Point it at a synced drive or a project folder, and every capture lands there.
Starts with Windows
Quietly, in the tray. No window thrown at you on every boot.
Nothing to set up
Recording needs ffmpeg. If it's missing, Kadrr fetches a tested build itself.
Your own bucket
On Pro, uploads can go to your S3 or R2 storage, so the files stay on your infrastructure.
Two languages
The whole app in English or Azerbaijani, switchable in Settings.
Free is a real plan. Pro is for all day, every day.
The app is the same on every plan, every tool included. What changes is how much you upload, how long the links live, and whether one person pays or the whole team.

Capturing, editing and recording never need an account. You sign in only to upload, so your links count against your plan and not someone else's. Pro and Business are paid through Stripe, renew yearly, and can be cancelled from your account page; a payment can be refunded within 14 days. See the terms.
Before you install, and before you buy.
Is Kadrr free?
Yes. The app and every tool in it are free: screenshots, both editors, recording, GIFs and copying text. You need an account only to upload and share links, and the Free plan includes 100 uploads a month. Pro is for when you upload all day, and Business puts a whole team on Pro.
Which Windows does it run on?
Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit. Install it from the Microsoft Store, which also keeps it up to date. Recording uses an NVIDIA graphics card's video encoder when there is one, and the processor otherwise.
Do the people I send links to need Kadrr?
No. A link opens a plain web page showing the image or video, with a download button. No app, no account.
Where do my captures go?
Into a folder on your computer, which you choose. Nothing leaves your machine until you press Upload. Uploaded files are stored in Kadrr's cloud or, on Pro, in an S3 or R2 bucket of your own if you connect one.
What happens to a link after 30 days?
On the Free plan the uploaded file is deleted and the link stops working. Your local copy is untouched. On Pro you can switch on permanent links in Settings, and links made after that stay until you delete them.
What does Pro cost, and what do I get?
$99 a year, which is $8.25 a month, billed yearly. Your first year is $36, which is $3 a month. Pro gives you 5,000 uploads a month, files up to 256 MB, permanent links, direct links to the file, recordings of any length, and the option to upload to a bucket of your own.
What is Business?
Pro for a team, on one bill. It starts at 5 seats for $25 a month, billed yearly at $300, and the first year is 64% off: $108 for five seats, which is $9 a month. Each seat after the fifth is $5 a month, $1.80 in the first year. Every member gets everything in Pro and signs in with their own account; their uploads and links stay their own, and nobody else on the team can see them.
How do I buy Pro or Business?
On your account page: sign in with your email, then under Plan press Upgrade to Pro, or choose the number of seats and press Get Business. Neither is sold in the Microsoft Store; the app stays free there and picks up your plan the next time you open its Settings.
How do I add people to a Business team?
On your account page, under Team: type their email and press Send invitation. They get an email and join by signing in to Kadrr with that address. You can change the number of seats there too. An added seat is charged for the rest of your year; a removed one is credited against the next renewal.
Is my card safe?
Payment is handled by Stripe. Your card details go to Stripe and never reach Kadrr. Receipts come from Stripe by email.
Does a plan renew automatically?
Yes, once a year, on the date shown on your account page: Pro at $99, Business at $60 a seat. If the price ever changes, we email you before it applies to your renewal.
How do I cancel, and can I get a refund?
Cancel any time on your account page, under Plan → Manage subscription. Nothing more is charged, and the plan stays until the end of the year you paid for. Within 14 days of a payment you can have it refunded in full: write to hello@itahir.com from the address you sign in with.
What happens to my uploads when a plan ends, or I leave a team?
Uploads you made as permanent stay, with their links. New uploads follow your own plan again, which is Free unless you pay for Pro, including deletion after 30 days. Nothing on your computer changes.
Does editing a recording change the original?
No. The editor saves a new file next to it, named with "-edited", and leaves the recording exactly as it was. Nothing is re-encoded until you press Save or Upload.
Does copying text send my screen anywhere?
No. Text is read on your computer by the recognition engine built into Windows. For letters outside English, add that language in Windows Settings → Time & language → Language.
Is there a Mac version?
No. Kadrr is built for Windows on purpose. On a Mac, CleanShot X already does this job well.
Stop cropping screenshots in Paint.
Install Kadrr, press one key, and your next bug report is a link.
