ScreenDot is a work-in-progress Chrome extension whose core capture-and-attach workflow works today. Click its draggable dot to capture a viewport, area, full page, or recording, then click a browser editor, chatbox, upload field, or drop zone to attach it. Captures stay local and expire from memory. Site compatibility and polish are actively improving.

I built ScreenDot because taking a screenshot was easy, but moving it into the browser tool where I needed it still involved context switching. The interaction is intentionally simple: click the draggable dot to capture, then click the destination. This is an early work-in-progress release, but the core capture-and-attach workflow works today. ScreenDot attempts to attach the capture when the site permits it and falls back to the clipboard when browser security blocks automatic placement. Privacy shaped the implementation: captures happen only after an explicit action, remain in memory, expire after 10 minutes, and are never sent to a ScreenDot server. I would love feedback on compatibility, onboarding, and which workflows to support next.

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.

Which browser workflow should ScreenDot support better next?

ScreenDot is still a work in progress, but its core capture-and-attach workflow works today: click the floating dot to capture, then click the browser destination where you want the image attached.

I am currently improving compatibility across AI chats, email, documentation tools, rich-text editors, file inputs, and drop zones. Which browser workflow would save you the most time, and which website should I prioritize testing next?
