About Gyazo

Gyazo is a capture tool built around instant sharing. When you take a screenshot, short video or GIF, it uploads it straight away and copies a link to your clipboard, so you can paste it into chat, a ticket or a document. Captures are tagged automatically with the app, website or document they came from, which makes your history searchable later. The free plan allows unlimited screenshot uploads and short recordings of up to seven seconds, but only shows your 10 most recent captures. Gyazo Pro, billed monthly or yearly, unlocks your full history, recordings up to 10 minutes, text search inside images, editing, password-protected captures and no ads. A Teams plan adds a private team space and Google single sign-on, with a five-user minimum. Apps run on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android, with extensions for Chrome, Firefox and Edge. Gyazo is made by Helpfeel in Japan. It suits people who share lots of quick visual explanations.

Best for: People who share quick screenshots and short clips as links many times a day.
