CropView
Capture, annotate, and send screenshots straight to AI assistants.
About
CropView is a Chrome extension that captures visible areas or full pages, lets you crop and annotate them, then hands the result to an AI assistant in one flow.
Built-in AI tasks include explaining a screenshot, drafting bug reports, generating test cases, or producing HTML from a visual reference. It needs no account and exports to PNG, JPG, or Markdown.
It is a workflow tool rather than a model — answer quality depends on whichever assistant you open (ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini).
