Everything you need to point things out

Blur names, emails and faces before you share.

Add arrows to a screenshot

Ten hand-drawn arrows to point at anything.

Add text to a screenshot

Label anything, readable on any background.

Private by design

Most online editors upload your image to a server. RioShot does all the work inside your browser, so screenshots of dashboards, revenue numbers and customer chats stay on your device. That also makes it fast: there is nothing to upload and nothing to wait for.

A free screenshot editor for people who share their work online. Point things out with arrows, highlights, text and zoom, hide private details, then paste the result straight into your post.

Take a screenshot, open rioshot.com and press Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on a Mac). Mark it up, press Copy image, and paste it into your post.
