I Built a Screenshot Editor Because I Was Tired of Ugly Screenshots

You know that feeling when you’re about to share a screenshot and you pause for a second, thinking, “This looks… terrible”? Yeah, me too. That’s exactly why I created Tsarr.in.

We’ve All Been There

Picture this: You’ve just built something cool. Maybe it’s a feature you’re proud of, a clever piece of code, or an app you want to show off on Twitter. You take a screenshot, ready to share it with the world, and… it’s just so boring. A plain, lifeless rectangle that doesn’t do justice to what you’ve created.

You could open Photoshop (if you even have it), spend 30 minutes figuring out how to add a simple frame, or you could pay $15/month for yet another subscription tool. Or worse, you could just post the plain screenshot and watch it get zero engagement.

There had to be a better way.

The “Aha” Moment

I was working on a side project and needed to share some progress screenshots on social media. Every tool I found either wanted my credit card, required me to create an account, or was so complicated I needed a tutorial just to add a simple macOS frame.

I thought, “This is ridiculous. Making screenshots look good shouldn’t be this hard.”

So I built Tsarr.in. Not for venture capital. Not to build some SaaS empire. Just to solve a problem that I—and probably thousands of other creators—face every single day.

What Makes It Different? It Gets Out of Your Way

Here’s the thing: you don’t want to think about making screenshots. You just want them to look good. Fast.

That’s why Tsarr.in has zero barriers. No sign-up page asking for your email. No “3 free exports then pay us” nonsense. No captchas, no paywalls, no BS. Just open it and start creating.

Drop your screenshot. Make it pretty. Download it. Done.

Want to add a macOS window frame? One click. Need to tilt it for that modern look? Drag a slider. Want to blur out sensitive information? Draw over it. The whole process takes literally seconds.
