This is a fully interactive mockup with static data — no real video is processed.
I learn a lot from YouTube, and I wanted a fast way to take notes with screenshots — then review them later, or just chat with the video to ask something specific.
So I built ScribeShot, in the open. It runs on a local LLM with zero setup and zero cost — no OpenAI key needed — and everything stays on your computer. If something breaks or you want a feature, message me; you'll be talking to the person who wrote the code.
Bring your own OpenAI key or run fully local — everything stays on your computer. No server, no account.
A one-time purchase, not a subscription — no per-video fees, no monthly bill, ever.
Independently made and actively developed — your bug reports and requests go straight to the developer.
ScribeShot saves your notes and screenshots directly to your computer. No cloud lock‑in. Work offline. Back up with any tool you like.
Yes! ScribeShot features a built-in Local LLM Engine that lets you run lightweight models (such as Gemma or Llama) directly on your local CPU/GPU. No data leaves your machine.
It is optional! You can plug in your own OpenAI API key for maximum quality and speed, or use ScribeShot's built-in Local LLM runner to generate notes fully offline.
No. ScribeShot is a local-first application. Your OpenAI API key is encrypted and stored safely inside your machine's secure system keychain.
No. It’s a one-time purchase with a lifetime license. You own the software forever.
Click 📸 while watching to snap a slide or code. ScribeShot's AI vision analyzes the screen content and auto-embeds the screenshot under the corresponding timestamp in your notes.
You can chat interactively with any video. ScribeShot indexes long video transcripts and uses smart keyword retrieval to feed relevant context to your local LLM or OpenAI.
