Shotomatic is a Mac app that automates screenshot capture. Instead of pressing a shortcut for every page or step, users set up a workflow once and the app captures the screen, moves on, and repeats. The finished set can be exported as a single PDF, along with other formats, which suits documentation and archiving work.
The site groups the product into three workflows: Auto Capture for local archives of work sessions and page sequences, Action Capture for step-by-step guides built from clicks, and website screenshot automation for lists of URLs. A separate timelapse option turns screenshot sessions into MP4 video. The download is built for Apple Silicon Macs.
With Auto Capture, the user picks an interval and chooses the entire screen, a specific window, or a custom area. Shotomatic then takes screenshots on that timer without further input. For content with pages, such as books or webcomics, the user records a next-page action. Keypress automation can also simulate a keystroke between captures.
Action Capture works differently. The user clicks through a task once, and each accepted click becomes an ordered page with the action marked for the reader. The user then reviews the sequence, adds instructions and visual cues, and exports the guide. Website capture takes a pasted or hand-entered URL list and captures each page, with settings available per URL.
Capture options include timed screenshots, keypress automation, and a choice of screen, window, or custom area. Website capture lets users select a URL, preview it, and adjust viewport, timing, cookies, format, and quality for that page. Results appear beside the URL list, so a batch can be reviewed before anything is exported.
Export covers JPG, PNG, PDF, ZIP, and MP4, depending on the workflow, and users can preview screenshots before saving. The timelapse feature compresses long sessions into short videos for progress updates or tutorials. The company's site also lists free tools, including Image to PDF, Merge PDF, Image Compressor, and a Screenshot Annotation Tool.
