Quilt is the ultimate screen capture utility for macOS that turns anything on your screen like ebooks, textbooks, or web-based slides into clean, searchable PDFs. It automates workflows by simulating clicks or key presses to capture content hands-free, and seamlessly stitches long websites or chats into scroll captures. With on-device OCR, exports are fully text-searchable. It works 100% offline with no internet needed, making it perfect for students, researchers, designers, and archivers.

I built Quilt because I kept running into content like textbooks, books and HTML based slides that I couldn't download and manually taking screenshots is very slow and repetitive. Especially with the AI revolution, learning content with the help of a LLM has never been more desirable. Quilt automates the entire process: – Capture any window, region, or the full screen – Take screenshots at custom intervals - Take scroll captures for websites – Simulate key presses or mouse clicks between shots – Export everything into a clean, searchable PDF (with on-device OCR) It’s native, fast, and works fully offline with no subscriptions. What I’m most proud of is how polished and simple it feels. What started as a tool for my own workflow has turned into something that’s helping students, researchers, and professionals archive hard-to-access content.
