Could ScreenDot help students ask better questions with visual context?
A study workflow I keep thinking about for ScreenDot is this:
A student is looking at a lecture slide, diagram, code error, research page, worksheet prompt, or assignment instructions.
2. They click ScreenDot's floating capture dot.
3. They click into a tutor, study group chat, or AI chatbox and attach the screenshot.
4. Instead of asking for the answer, they ask for an explanation, a hint, or help understanding what concept is being tested.
ScreenDot is still a work in progress, but the core capture-and-attach flow works today. I am trying to make the permission model, privacy explanation, and site compatibility feel trustworthy enough for normal study use.
For students, would this be useful? If yes, which workflows should I test first: lecture slides, PDFs, coding homework errors, math diagrams, LMS pages, research notes, or something else?
