Extension for Safari and Chrome

Capture the web.All of it.

Meet Pleno, the browser extension that enables you to quickly take a screenshot of your webpage — the whole page or just what’s on screen. Mock it up with our feature-rich editor and export it as an image or video. All of this on the privacy of your machine.

Coming soon · Safari 17 on macOS 13 · Chrome 116 on any platform

A full-page capture of a coffee roaster's article, composed on a warm gradient inside a Safari window frame.

How it works

Multiple screens.One picture.

Pleno scrolls the page for you, takes a screenshot of each screen as it goes, and stitches them into one seamless image — sticky headers, pop-ups and lazy-loaded pictures handled along the way. Keep scrolling to watch it happen.

What to capture

The whole page.Or just this bit.

Most of the time you want the lot, but not always. Sometimes it’s one card, one table, or a corner of the page you need to send someone.

A captured article page with the selection overlay drawn over part of it.

 

The whole thing, top to bottom, however long it runs. This is the one you will reach for most.

The hard part

One header.Not four.

You know how this usually goes. You capture a long page, the sticky header comes along for the ride, and you end up with four copies of it down your screenshot and the chat bubble in tow. Here is that same page taken the usual way, and taken with Pleno.

Handled

Pages fight back.We win.

The header is only the loudest one. Plenty of other things on a page will happily spoil a screenshot — here is what happens to each of them, so you never have to think about any of it.

  1. 01

    Chat widgets

    Live chat bubbles sit on top of a page rather than in it, so we leave them out. That includes the ones built in ways that make them hard to spot, and the ones that load a moment after everything else.

  2. 02

    Lazy images

    Plenty of sites hold their images back until you scroll down to them. We load them all first and give the page a moment to settle, so you don’t end up with blank gaps.

  3. 03

    Reveal animations

    Some sites slide their text into place as you scroll past. We note where each word actually sat at the moment we photographed it, so anything you black out later lines up properly.

  4. 04

    Your pointer

    Your cursor never shows up in a screenshot, but whatever it happens to be resting on can light up and end up in the picture. We move the page out of its reach for a moment so that doesn’t happen.

  5. 05

    Afterwards

    When we’re done we put the page back exactly as we found it, right down to where you were scrolled to. That holds even if something goes wrong along the way.

The editor

Not a download.A studio.

Your capture opens in an editor rather than dropping straight into Downloads. Add a background, sit it in a window frame, give it some room to breathe, mark it up. Everything updates as you go, so what you see is what you’ll get.

Dark

Pick one to find it in the window.

The Pleno editor: a captured article inside a Safari window frame on a warm gradient, marked up with a handwritten note, a curved arrow onto a figure in the table and a highlight over a price, with the tool rail on the left and the format, background and frame controls on the right.

Markup

Redacted meansredacted.

Drag across anything you’d rather not share and each word gets its own bar, sized to fit that word. What was underneath is properly gone from the file you export, not just hidden behind a rectangle.

The pen works the same way. Bend an arrow onto the thing you’re talking about, write a note in your own handwriting, highlight the line that matters. For what a bar won’t cover — a face, a chart, a whole panel — drag a mosaic over it instead: a blur reads as “soft”, a mosaic reads as “removed”. And if you change your mind, ⌘Z takes it back.

Scroll back up to see what was underneath.

A detail of an exported capture: black bars over the lot size and the contact email, each the length of the words beneath it, and a handwritten note reading “up from 85 last year” with a curved red arrow onto the 87.25 in the table.

A corner of a real export, at full size.

Formats

One capture.Any format you need.

Image

PNG · JPEG · WebP

Save it at normal, double or triple size, cropped to whatever shape you need. Or just copy it to your clipboard. WebP needs a browser that can encode it, which Safari can't yet — the option greys itself out there rather than quietly handing you a PNG.

Document

PDF

Keep it as one long page, or have it split neatly across Letter or A4 sheets.

Motion

GIF · MP4

Turn the capture into a video that scrolls down the page. You choose how long it takes and where it pauses.

Archive

HTML · Markdown

Keep the whole page as a single file you can open later, or just the words. Markdown opens formatted, so you can check it came out right.

Privacy

Your screenshotsstay on your machine.

There’s no account to set up, and nothing you capture ever leaves your machine.

We thought about this one a lot. People screenshot invoices, dashboards, things they’re signed in to — it’s the whole reason we built the black bars in the first place. So there’s no analytics, no crash reporting, nothing quietly checking in. If anyone ever asked us for your screenshots, we wouldn’t have any to give them.

One exception, stated plainly because a policy that hides its exception is worth nothing: when you paste a licence key, Pleno tells us the licence it belongs to, a random name the browser made up for itself, and which browser it is. That is how a licence knows how many places it has been put. It happens when you unlock it, and after that once a day at most, when the editor opens — so that an activation you free from your licence page actually comes back. It never blocks you: with no answer it carries on working for a fortnight, which is rather longer than most holidays.

Pricing

Buy it once.Keep it.

Pay once and it’s yours. There’s no subscription and no renewal to miss — the licence is yours to keep, and yours to move between browsers whenever you like. Updates are included.

In Chrome

Install from the Chrome Web Store, then paste your key in Options. Needs Chrome 116 or later, on any platform.

In Safari

Download the Mac app and paste your key — that download is also the free version, and the only one for Safari. Or buy it on the Mac App Store, where it arrives unlocked and there is no key to paste. Needs macOS 13 or later, Safari 17 or later.

One key, both browsers. No account: the key is checked on your own machine, and all we are ever told is that one of its activations is now this browser. There is a free version in both browsers too — every capture mode, backgrounds and frames, and PNG or JPEG out — no time limit and no watermark — and the editor above it is what the key unlocks. Prices are provisional until the listings are live.

Questions

Things people ask.

So where does the extension actually live?

Inside a small Mac app. That's just how extensions for Safari work. You install the app, open it once, and it'll point you to the switch in Safari's settings that turns it on. It takes about ten seconds, and you won't need to open the app again after that.

Does it work on pages I'm logged in to?

Yes. It captures whatever your browser is already showing you, signed in as you are, so your dashboards and account pages work just like anything else. It's also a good part of why we keep everything on your machine.

What about apps that scroll inside a panel?

Some web apps scroll inside a panel rather than the window itself, and a true full-page shot isn't possible on those. When we notice one, we'll say so and capture what's on screen instead, so you're never left wondering why the result looks odd.

Are the black bars real, or just rectangles on top?

They're real. The bars and the mosaic are baked into the file you export, so there's no layer to switch off and nothing hiding underneath. We place them using the positions the page gives us for its own words, which is why they sit on the word rather than roughly over it.

What if I reload the editor by accident?

You're fine. Your capture and everything you've drawn on it come straight back. We keep the last three captures on your machine, so a reload, a restart or an update won't cost you the work.

Does it work in Chrome?

It does. Install it free from the Chrome Web Store and you get the capture side in full — every mode, no time limit, no watermark — plus backgrounds and frames, saving as PNG or JPEG. A licence key unlocks the rest of the editor, and the same key works in Safari.
