ScreenML

ScreenML - AI-Driven Screenshots is a macOS utility that automatically generates context-aware, descriptive filenames for screenshots to improve organization and searchability. It analyzes screenshot content and context using AI models to label files with meaningful names, reducing clutter from generic time-stamped names. A Pro version is planned to offer further customization and features. The app supports viewing context-aware names in the menubar, optional annotations via Preview, and optional launch-on-login. It runs locally in conjunction with cloud-based AI models (e.g., ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude) for filename generation, without requiring user-provided API keys. Pricing includes a Free Forever plan and a Pro plan with higher limits and additional capabilities (coming soon).

How to Use ScreenML

1. Capture a screenshot using the macOS hotkey (Option + 3).
2. AI-generated filename appears based on the screenshot content and active window context.
3. Annotate (optional): In app settings, enable annotation workflow to open the screenshot in Preview and copy the annotated image for sharing workflows.
4. View context-aware name in the app’s menubar if you don’t have the folder open.

Note: An internet connection is required for the AI to generate filenames. Local/offline mode is not yet supported.

How ScreenML Works

• Capture a screenshot via a hotkey
• The app sends image data and context to AI models (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude) to generate a descriptive filename
• The generated filename follows a format like [Context/Containing_Window_Title]_[Relevant Keyword(s)].png
• The filename is stored with the screenshot, aiding later search and organization

---

Safety and Privacy

• Data is used solely for filename generation and remains within the app ecosystem
• No training data is drawn from your screenshots
• Third-party AI models may have their own data policies; ScreenML itself does not retain data for model training
