Edit: I figure my comment probably comes off a bit negative. I think this is a cool service and I would likely use it if there were an API available. Props to coming up with a neat little app to develop and bring to the public...simple ideas like this are hard to come by and stick to.

#12This is great! I've wasted so much time in the past doing this manually in Sketch. We're planning to release some major features for EnvKey[1] over the next few weeks, and so we'll be putting a lot of new screenshots up on the marketing site. I look forward to giving it a run through at that point and hopefully saving lots of time. I'm happy to give feedback on the process. Congrats on making something useful! 1 - ht…
Looking forward to seeing the new screenshots. If you run into any problems or have feedback, just send me a message.

#13I built this much more limited Chrome extension to save our designer's sanity (from frequent requests from marketing) a few years ago. Works well enough.

#14Some Linux distros also support that out of the box.

#16Looks useful, congrats on the launch!. One thing, since the page says you're not uploading images to your server(s) - you might want to rename the "Upload the screenshot" button to something that reflects that. Good luck!
Hadn't even thought about that! Replacing it by something like 'insert' does not feel accurate either but I'm not a native english speaker. Is there any synonym to 'upload' or 'insert' that would make more sense in this case and make it clear that everything is handled client-side?

"For best results, don’t mouse over the page during capture and set “Actual Size” from the “View” menu. Your finished image will open in a new window.
Uh oh, something went wrong! Try reloading the page and running this again."
In case you're interested, I'm running Chrome on Linux. chrome://version says '64.0.3282.186 (Official Build) (64-bit)'
