What is Keep It Shot?
Keep It Shot is a Mac app that uses AI to automatically generate descriptive filenames for your screenshots, screen recordings, and media files. Instead of dealing with generic names like 'Screenshot 2024-01-15', the app analyzes each image's content using GPT-4 vision technology and assigns meaningful, context-aware names that make files easy to find later.
The tool goes beyond simple renaming by creating an offline, fully private search index using built-in OCR and image description capabilities. This lets you locate any screenshot using natural language keywords without uploading anything to the cloud. You can batch rename hundreds of old screenshots in just 2 clicks, set custom renaming preferences, enable auto-rename for new screenshots, and revert to original filenames with a single click if you don't like the AI-generated names.
Keep It Shot is designed for Mac users who accumulate大量 screenshots daily—particularly product managers, designers, developers, and anyone whose workflow relies on visual documentation. It transforms cluttered screenshot folders into searchable, well-organized knowledge bases while respecting privacy by keeping all processing local.
