Hi! I build PromptShot on my own. The idea came from my own frustration: I was tired of switching between my screen and an AI chat, copying screenshots by hand and losing the context. I just wanted to select part of the screen and ask right away — so this tool was born. If something is missing or gets in your way, email me at support@prompt-shot.com — I read every message.

FAQ

Where are screenshots sent?

Directly to the AI provider you selected. PromptShot servers do not proxy requests or receive your API keys.

Can it run fully locally?

Yes. Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp, and vLLM are supported. Use a model with vision capabilities.

Why does Windows show SmartScreen?

The first release is not yet signed with a paid Authenticode certificate. Download only from our domains.

How do I activate Pro after payment?

lava.top sends us the purchase email. Enter the activation code you receive in PromptShot → Subscription. Renewals are applied automatically after a server check.
