Satty is a modern screenshot annotation tool for Linux and BSD, inspired by Swappy and Flameshot. It provides a simple toolset, fullscreen annotation, post-shot cropping, and hardware-accelerated rendering via OpenGL with a GTK/Adwaita UI.

Use cases

  • annotate screenshots on wayland
  • draw arrows and text on a screenshot before sharing
  • crop a screenshot after taking it
  • copy annotated screenshot to clipboard
  • screenshot annotation tool for sway or hyprland
  • replace flameshot on wlroots compositors

When to choose

  • you use a wlroots-based Wayland compositor like Sway, Hyprland, or River
  • you want a simple, minimal annotation UI with smooth hardware-accelerated rendering
  • you need to pipe screenshots from stdin and save to clipboard or file

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured screenshot capture tool with built-in region selection on X11
  • you are on Windows or macOS
  • you need collaborative or cloud-based annotation features
