NormCap

NormCap is a free, open-source screen capture application that extracts text and structured information from images using optical character recognition. Instead of saving conventional screenshots, it converts selected screen regions into editable text. Users can capture paragraphs, interface labels, documents, and other visible content with a simple selection tool. Its OCR processing operates locally, helping preserve privacy without relying on cloud services. NormCap includes different recognition modes for extracting plain text or structured information such as URLs and email addresses. Recognized content is automatically copied to the clipboard for immediate use. Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, it provides a lightweight solution for turning visual information into reusable text.
