Yes!
Pause a YouTube video (or any video), use GrabText to draw a box over the text on the screen, and boom—it’s copied to your clipboard.
Perfect for grabbing notes from tutorial videos or slides.
It’s surprisingly good.
We use advanced OCR (Optical Character Recognition) that works great on clear text.
It might struggle a bit with super fancy handwritten fonts or very blurry images, but for standard text, it’s like magic.
Nope.
Your privacy comes first.
All the text recognition happens right inside your browser.
We never see your images, your screen, or the text you copy.
GrabText is the perfect workaround for that!
Since it doesn’t rely on right-clicking, you can just use the toolbar icon (or a keyboard shortcut) to grab text from sites that try to stop you from copying.
Absolutely.
Power users love this: go to your browser’s extension settings and set a keyboard shortcut for GrabText.
Then you can just hit your shortcut, drag a box, and paste. It takes literally one second.
Whether it’s a brilliant suggestion for a new feature or a weird glitch, we want to hear it. Your feedback is what makes GrabText better for everyone.
