ClipJot app — annotating a screenshot with arrows and text

How it works

Three steps. Under five seconds.

Step 1

Paste

Copy any image to your clipboard — a screenshot, a photo, anything. ClipJot picks it up instantly.

Step 2

Annotate

Add arrows, text, shapes, or blur sensitive areas. Everything is on layers — move, resize, or delete any element.

Step 3

Copy back

Press ⌘C (or Ctrl+C) to copy the annotated image back to your clipboard. Paste it anywhere — Slack, Notion, email.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Built for fast, focused image editing — directly from the clipboard.

Arrows & Shapes

Draw arrows, rectangles, circles, and lines to guide attention to exactly what matters.

Text Annotations

Add labels, callouts, and notes directly on the image with full control over size and color.

Redact & Blur

Cover sensitive data — passwords, emails, personal information — before sharing with a click.

Crop

Trim the image to focus on just the relevant portion before annotating or copying.

Clipboard Round-Trip

Paste in, annotate, copy back. No file dialogs, no saving. The entire workflow stays in your clipboard.

Tabs, Undo & Saves

Work across multiple images in tabs, undo any mistake, duplicate a tab to try variations, and save your work to disk — all in one place.
