Screenshots are named after the moment you took them — the one thing you never remember. What you remember is what was inside the picture.

Three months later…
You remember what was in the screenshot, not when you took it.
Searching a Sealshot Library for the words permission denied. The
unrelated captures filter away, and the one screenshot with that phrase
inside it remains — with the matching line shown underneath, so you can see
why it matched.
This guide will cover what macOS gives you out of the box, where Spotlight stops
being enough, and how a library that runs OCR on every capture turns “somewhere
in the last three months” into one search box.
Sealshot indexes the text in every capture on your Mac, and nowhere else. See
the Library for how that search works today.
The full guide is being written. In the meantime the documentation above covers
the same ground.
