# VibeCap

> VibeCap is a native macOS screenshot workflow tool for AI work. It helps users capture a screen region, annotate it, and paste it directly into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Figma, terminal apps, and other image-friendly tools. It is local-first, account-free, and positioned around fast screenshot handoff rather than cloud storage or team collaboration.
