OpenPortal is an AI snipping tool for Mac and Windows. Press Ctrl+Shift+O, draw a box around anything on your screen, and ask a question or request a transformation. The app captures one frame in memory, sends only the pixels inside your selection, and returns an answer or a new asset without screenshots, uploads, or switching tabs. It is built for people who already work with AI but find the screenshot upload explain loop slow: developers reading error messages, creators turning video frames into thumbnails or stream posters, and anyone who needs to extract a table, rewrite text, or explain a chart. The concrete differentiator is that the selection itself is the prompt. You choose exactly what AI sees, and nothing runs or records between presses. Free covers five selections a day. Pro at $19/month adds higher limits, follow ups, multiple selections, and web powered answers. Premium at $39/month adds creation of thumbnails, posters, ads, and graphics from selections, with 150 creations a month. The demo on the site uses a smaller model and states that images are sent to be answered and never stored.
