What it does

A fast Mac tool for capturing rights-owned media, transcripts and smart moments into a private research library.

Native and fast.

A real Mac app, not a webpage pretending. Paste, click, done.

Transcripts and smart moments.

Every capture can come with a transcript and auto-marked highlights, so an hour of material becomes five minutes of finding.

Openverse image search built in.

Find openly licensed images without leaving the app.

Founder note

I make about fifty lesson videos a year. GrabIt is how my own reference material, my own back catalogue, and openly licensed media get into Final Cut without a browser full of sketchy converter sites.

  • Faster, more reliable downloads that no longer freeze the window after a song.
  • Paste a link, capture a screenshot, or jump to any tab from the menu bar or a shortcut (⌘/).
  • Live streams need a clip range so they cannot run forever.

FAQ

What am I allowed to capture?

Content you own, content you have permission to use, and openly licensed media. The full policy is on our acceptable use page. You are responsible for having the rights.

Why isn't this on the App Store?

Tools like this need system access the App Store does not allow. We sell it directly, signed and notarized by Apple.

Does it update itself?

Yes, built-in updates. You will never hunt for a new DMG.
