Most screenshot tools let you capture and annotate — but the text stays locked as an image. SnapDeck is different: it uses OCR to turn any screenshot directly into an editable PPTX or Excel file, preserving text and layout so you can edit instantly instead of retyping from scratch. No cloud upload, no subscription — just a native Mac app that's completely free. Built for anyone who's ever screenshotted a chart or slide and wished it were editable.
Hey everyone,
I kept running into the same annoying workflow: take a screenshot of a table, chart, or slide during a meeting, then manually retype everything into PowerPoint or Excel just to edit it. So I built SnapDeck to skip that step entirely.
How it works:
1. Capture any part of your screen
2. Built-in OCR reads the text/table structure
3. Get an instantly editable .pptx or .xlsx file — no retyping
It started as a paid tool, but I decided to make it completely free because I think this should just be a basic utility, not a $30-40 purchase.
Would genuinely love feedback from this community — what would make this more useful for your workflow? Any missing feature that would make you actually use this daily?
Happy to answer any questions in the comments.
