Snipaste

brew install --cask snipaste v2.11.3

Capture screenshots and pin them as floating windows on your desktop.

Why you might care

Snipaste combines screenshot capture with a persistent annotation and pinning system—great for reference material, design work, or comparing multiple screenshots side-by-side. The floating window approach beats traditional screenshot tools for keeping visual references visible while you work.
