What it is

Snagto is a local-first Windows desktop app that captures text, links, and snippets via keyboard shortcut and stores them offline in JSON, addressing the friction of losing useful information before it can be processed. The product emphasizes privacy (no cloud, no tracking) and quick capture workflows, monetized at nine dollars one-time for unlimited access.

The one thing to knowZero revenue evidence, single-source detection at low velocity, and no founder track record visibility make this a pre-traction launch despite solid product positioning and copyability.
