Extract high-quality screenshots from videos automatically. Blur detection filters out blurry shots. Auto-extract frames at intervals to scan hours of footage in minutes. Smart duplicate removal. Unlimited projects. 100% private - local processing. Free to start.
👋 Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Surya, and we're launching v2.0 today. We launched v1 6 months ago and got some really good feedback through DMs and messages. People shared what they needed, so we rebuilt the tool based on those suggestions.
Features built for different use cases:
For YouTubers & Thumbnail Creators:
🔍 Blur Detection - Automatically analyzes frames for sharpness and filters out blurry transition shots. Only get the sharp, crisp screenshots that work for thumbnails.
For Video Editors & Content Creators:
⚡ Auto Extract Frames - Set your interval (every 5s, 30s, 1min, custom) and automatically capture frames throughout your entire video. This is a massive time-saver:
• Reviewing client footage - Got 3 hours of wedding footage? Extract frames every 10 seconds and scan the entire thing in under 5 minutes. Identify the best shots, transitions, and moments without watching the whole thing.
• Creating contact sheets - Generate visual summaries (like a video index) to share with clients for approval before you start editing. They can see everything at a glance and pick what they want included.
• Building storyboards - Extracting frames from reference videos, existing footage, or rough cuts to plan your edit sequence or shot list. Beats scrubbing back and forth manually.
• Documenting tutorials/courses - Recording a 2-hour tutorial? Extract frames every 30 seconds to create documentation, study materials, or a quick reference guide without manual screenshots.
• Event coverage - Recorded a 4-hour conference or event? Extract frames at intervals to quickly find keynote moments, speaker transitions, or audience reactions for highlight reels.
• Finding specific moments - That perfect 5-second clip is somewhere in 90 minutes of B-roll. Extract frames every 5 seconds and find it visually in minutes instead of scrubbing for hours.
• Quality checking - Before delivering final videos, extract frames at regular intervals to check for quality issues, compression artifacts, or unwanted elements throughout the entire timeline.
For Social Media Managers:
🗑️ Smart Duplicate Removal - Automatically removes exact frames. Saves tons of time when you're processing multiple similar shots or long videos with static scenes.
For Power Users:
📸 Unlimited Screenshots - Process as many frames as you need from your videos.
💾 Unlimited Projects - Organize your work across multiple projects. Great if you're managing different clients or campaigns.
What stayed the same:
Everything processes locally in your browser. Your videos never leave your device. Free to start, no installation needed.
Would love to hear your thoughts - especially if you work with video and need screenshots regularly. What else would be helpful?

Looks cool if can improve the quality of screenshots. I usually use Opt + Shift + 3 (or 4 depending on the sequence I wanna screenshot) but it is a fact that I take a photo of a "quality screenshot" intuitively and then have to edit it in Photoshop.
@busmark_w_nika Totally get that workflow - having to edit screenshots afterwards in Photoshop is such a time sink! If you ever work with video content (screencasts, recordings, tutorials), this tool basically does that quality-checking step for you. The blur detection automatically filters frames and only shows you the sharp, crisp shots - so you skip the editing step and just grab the good ones directly.
Would love to know if you try it out! 🙌

Wow! First impression was, who is gonna pay for it but I clearly see it now. Youtubers and content creators will love this. What about the pricing model, is it one shoot or a subscription one?
@german_merlo1 Thanks for checking it out! 🙌 Let me know if you have any questions
or feedback - happy to help!

Love how v2 is clearly shaped by real user feedback. The use-case breakdown makes it very concrete. Curious which feature ended up driving the rebuild the most from v1 to v2?
@syed_hassan9 Thanks Syed! Honestly, blur detection + auto-extract drove the rebuild. V1 users were manually scrubbing videos and still getting blurry shots. Now it automatically captures frames at intervals AND filters out the blurry ones. Those two features together - automatic capture + quality control - changed the entire workflow. That's what made the rebuild worth it for me.

@sooryagangaraj - That’s a great example of listening to real usage instead of assumptions. Solving both capture and quality together clearly changes how people work, not just what features they use.
Been scrubbing Zoom recordings to grab stills. Pain. This looks handy. Blur + dupe filter is exactly what I need. Local-only is a plus. Does it pick smart frames around scene changes, or just intervals? I’ll try it on a 2‑hour panel later.
Congrats on the launch! Processing everything locally in the browser while still handling long videos is impressive, and blur detection for thumbnails feels especially useful for YouTubers. Have you thought about adding tagging or rating for extracted frames to speed up selection even more?
@vik_sh Thanks Viktor! Yeah, the local processing + blur detection combo works really well for YouTube workflows. Tagging/rating is a great idea - would definitely speed up the selection process. Not there yet but it's on the radar. What kind of tags would be most useful for your workflow?

@alexcloudstar Haha yeah, scrubbing through long Zoom recordings is brutal.
Right now it's interval-based (every 5s, 30s, 60s, or custom) + blur/dupe filtering.
Scene change detection isn't there yet but it's definitely something we're thinking
about - would be super useful for catching slide transitions.
Curious how it handles your 2-hour panel - let me know what interval you end up using!
