Overview

Screenshot Text Editor lets you edit the text that's already baked into a screenshot or image — not just add a new text box on top. Fix a typo, change a label, swap a value, redact a name, translate a caption, or clean up a chat screenshot in seconds. No re-taking the screenshot, no Photoshop, no design skills. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the editor and drop, paste (Ctrl/Cmd+V), or choose a screenshot or image. 2. AI text detection (OCR) finds every line of text and highlights it as you hover. 3. Click the text and pick word, line or sentence — it's erased with a background-matching fill and the original text is pre-filled, so you just retype it. Or draw your own box over anything. 4. The font, size, color and position are matched to the original automatically. Tweak anything, then export. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • Edits the text INSIDE the image.

Pricing
