Why we built it
Explaining "the button in the top right" in words makes the other person search the screen for it. What one arrow could say turns into several messages.
Opening a heavy image editor just to mark up a screenshot or photo is a chore, and an annotation tool that stopped getting updates makes it worse.
So it comes down to three steps: paste, point, send.
What it does
Arrows and text
Arrows with a thin tail and a bold head, text with a white outline. Both stay readable on light and dark screens.
Numbers and symbol stamps
Numbers for steps, plus ✗ · ! · ? · ✓ · ♥. Symbols stamp in the colour that fits their meaning, and both colour and size can be changed afterwards. On large photos they start out large enough to see.
Pixelate or fill
Hide names, contacts and numbers that should not be shown — pixelate them, or cover them completely in a color you pick.
A canvas that grows
Start an arrow outside the image or let the text run long, and the canvas grows by that much with white margin.
Fix it after drawing
Drag an arrow by its ends; resize or rotate shapes and strokes with their handles. Hold Shift to draw a perfect square or circle.
Crop · resize · rotate
Keep only the part you need, make it smaller, turn it around. Annotations move with it.
Keyboard shortcuts
One letter per tool (arrow A · text T · shape R), 1–4 for line weight, Shift+1–0 for colour.
Blank canvas
Start from a white canvas with no screenshot and explain a flow or a structure with arrows and text alone.
Pick up where you left off
Your work is kept in this browser, so you can continue after reopening it. Save anything you want to edit later as a DrawMark document (.drawmark).
AI agents use it too
An AI agent that can drive a browser uses the same screen a person does. The three screenshots on this page were made by an AI agent operating this tool directly.
How it works
- Paste a screenshot or photo (⌘V or Ctrl+V) or drop it in. You can also start from a blank canvas.
- Point with arrows, text and numbers. Click one again with the same tool to move or edit it.
- Copy it into a chat, or download it as PNG, JPEG or WebP.
Where your images go
Nowhere. Drawing and exporting both happen in your browser, so the image is never sent to a server. We have no way to see what you drew. This page counts visits only, without cookies (Cloudflare Web Analytics). The editor does not even do that.
Good to know
- Only your last piece of work is kept, and only in this browser. To keep it longer or edit it on another device, save it as a DrawMark document (.drawmark).
- A browser cannot capture the screen. Take the screenshot with your operating system (⌘⇧4 on a Mac, Win+Shift+S on Windows) and paste it in.
- On a phone, one finger draws and two fingers zoom or move the canvas.
FAQ
- Do I need to install anything?
- No. It runs in the browser. If you would rather keep it as a separate app, download it for macOS, Windows or Linux.
- What formats can I get?
- Download as PNG, JPEG or WebP, or copy to the clipboard. The downloaded image keeps the original size. To edit it again later, save it as a DrawMark document (.drawmark). On a phone the share sheet opens, so you can save it to your photos or send it straight to a chat app.
- I drew something wrong.
- ⌘Z or Ctrl+Z undoes one step at a time. "Clear all" removes only the annotations, "Start over" closes the image too, and both can be undone the same way.
- Can I use it to show something to an AI?
- Yes. Paste a screenshot marked with arrows and numbers into an AI chat, and you do not have to spell out "where and how" in a long paragraph.
- Which languages does it support?
- Korean, English and Japanese. It follows your browser, and you can switch in the bottom bar.
