BetterShot is a local-first macOS menu-bar app for region, window, and full-screen capture, screen recording, OCR, and color picking. Its floating preview opens an editor for annotations, backgrounds, padding, shadows, cropping, and video trimming, with MP4 export and drag-to-app workflows; it uses no cloud service, subscription, or telemetry.

AI Runner combines an offline conversational companion with configurable personality, voice, and memory, plus a layered canvas for generating and editing images. It can also run headlessly and expose local LLM, image, speech-to-text, and text-to-speech functions over HTTP. Docker is the recommended setup, while manual installation requires Python 3.13 and a substantial set of system dependencies.

HiPixel is a native macOS image upscaling app built around Upscayl models. Users can drag in images for automatic processing, run batches, watch folders for new files, or trigger jobs through Apple Shortcuts and a URL scheme. It includes models for photos, lower-resource processing, detail preservation, and digital art, and it can load compatible custom models. macOS 13 or later is required.

Quick Picture Viewer is a lightweight Windows image viewer that opens common formats along with files such as WebP, SVG, DDS, PSD, and CR2. Users can rotate, flip, crop, convert, run slideshows, use picture-in-picture mode, print images, or export them to PDF. Plugin support adds extra effects and tools, while the Windows-only scope makes it primarily an alternative to the default photo viewer.
