Turn any process into a professional Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) or tutorial. StepGrab captures your screen at every click, adds numbered arrows, and generates the guide automatically — 100% locally on your Mac.
Just start recording and click through your workflow. StepGrab captures a screenshot at every click — automatically.
Numbered arrows are placed precisely where you clicked, so your audience always knows where to look.
Export your workflow as a PDF document, an animated GIF, or an MP4 video — ready to share in seconds.
Choose your arrow color, size, and style. Set your save location, file naming, and export formats. StepGrab works your way.
StepGrab is always just one click away. No window clutter — start recording instantly from the menu bar.
A lightweight overlay keeps you in control while recording — showing your step count and a live preview without getting in the way.
Click the menu-bar icon and run through your flow. Every click is captured as a clean screenshot, automatically numbered and annotated.
Rename steps, add captions, redact private text, reorder, and pick your arrow style — or just accept the smart defaults.
Export the finished guide as PDF, GIF, or MP4 and drop it into a doc, ticket, or Slack thread. Done in seconds.
Full-motion recording with smooth cursor trails. Drop it into a doc, embed it, or share a link.
Looping preview clip. Perfect for product updates, Slack threads, and GitHub pull requests.
Numbered, printable step-by-step guide. Captions and screenshots included.
100% local.
Nothing uploaded.
Ever.
Recordings, screenshots, and exports live only on your Mac. Nothing touches a server — ever.
No email, no password, no tracking. Sign in with Apple is optional — used only to sync your recording count via an anonymous Apple ID.
Your screen never leaves your device. You decide what gets shared, and with whom.
No. StepGrab runs entirely on your Mac. Screenshots, recordings, and exports stay on your device — nothing is uploaded, analyzed, or shared without your explicit action. No account is required to use the app.
StepGrab is free to try on the Mac App Store — you can record your first few guides without an account. Pro unlocks unlimited recordings, MP4 export, and every customization option, available as a yearly subscription or a one-time Lifetime purchase.
StepGrab runs on macOS 14.6 and later, on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. You can download it directly from the Mac App Store — updates install automatically.
Every recording can be exported three ways: a numbered PDF guide (great for tickets and docs), an animated GIF (perfect for Slack and pull requests), or a full-motion MP4 video. Pick one, or export the same recording to all three.
Yes. After recording you can rename each step, add captions, reorder or delete steps, redact private text in screenshots, and tweak the arrow color, size, and style before exporting. Your original capture is never destructive.
Free for your first 3 recordings. No account required.
