Pinumo

You're comparing three laptops across five tabs. You grab a screenshot of each spec table, then each price, then the delivery dates. By the end, your downloads folder holds a dozen files named after timestamps, and you still have to line them up before you can decide anything.

Pinumo is built around that pile. Its tagline is "Capture as you go. Use your screenshots together." You keep browsing while each capture joins a collection, and you choose what to do with the set once you have the full picture.

Capturing covers the usual ground. You can grab the visible page, a selected area or a full webpage, repeat the same region, or set a delay so an open menu makes it into the shot. The Windows app also captures desktop programs.

The interesting part comes after. Select the images you want and save them as separate PNGs or JPEGs, or as a ZIP. Put two side by side to compare details, or stack several vertically to show a sequence in one image. Or export the set as a standard A4 PDF, with long screenshots split across pages automatically. Free exports carry no watermark and have no daily limit, which is generous.

Along the way you can crop, add arrows and numbered notes, and copy text out of an image with OCR that runs locally in Chinese and English.

The everyday workflow is free. Pro is US$19, paid once with no automatic renewal, and adds grid collages, image styling, OCR review and search, and more PDF layouts. There's a 14-day Pro trial with no registration or card, and one licence covers four active installations.

Installing the browser version takes a little effort. For Chrome and Edge you download a ZIP and load the extracted folder in Developer mode. On Windows you unzip a portable app and run it. That's more hands-on than a store listing, and it means you're trusting the download directly.

According to the privacy page, updated November 11, 2026, screenshots stay on your device, and the local PDF and OCR features don't upload images. Licence checks use your key and a random installation identifier, checkout runs through Creem, and the website loads Google Analytics only if you agree. An optional translation tool sends just the text you select to a service you set up with your own API key. No person or company is named, only a support email.

If your research usually ends in a folder of orphaned screenshots, the free version is an easy way to keep the next batch together.
