Comparison
LazyScreenshots vs macOS Built-in Screenshots
Your Mac screenshots, upgraded. Everything Cmd+Shift+3 does, plus auto-paste to AI, annotations, and burst mode.
What LazyScreenshots does that macOS screenshots don't.
Auto-paste to AI
LazyScreenshots captures and auto-pastes into Claude, Cursor, or Codex in one keystroke. macOS screenshots save to desktop or clipboard — you still have to switch apps and paste manually.
AI-Powered Editing
Remove backgrounds and edit images with AI, built directly into the screenshot workflow. macOS offers basic Markup tools but no AI editing capabilities.
Burst Mode & History
Rapid-fire screenshots with a real-time HUD counter, plus a visual history to browse and re-paste past captures. macOS has no burst mode and no screenshot history.
