## What it is
Snippai is an AI-powered snipping tool that captures screenshots and uses AI to extract structured content such as LaTeX formulas, text, tables, code, and colors from images. It is a desktop application built in TypeScript that also offers image analysis, translation, and problem-solving features.

## Use cases
- convert formula screenshots to latex
- extract text from images with ocr
- convert table screenshots to markdown or excel
- explain code from a screenshot
- translate text in images
- extract dominant colors from an image
- solve problems shown in screenshots

## When to choose
- you frequently need to convert screenshots of formulas, tables, or code into editable formats
- you want an all-in-one AI screenshot assistant for research or study
- you need OCR combined with AI understanding like summarizing or translating captured text

## When to avoid
- you need a fully offline tool with no AI processing
- you require only basic screenshot capture without content extraction
- your workflow depends on proprietary alternatives with commercial support
