Everything you reach for

A whole toolkit.
Zero weight.

Every tool is one key away, and every drawing looks the same in your editor, your clipboard and the saved file.

Annotate like you mean it

Arrows, boxes, highlighter, text, numbered steps, spotlight and a pixelate brush. Scribble a circle and Koji cleans it into a perfect one. Hold Ctrl to keep it hand-drawn.

Copy text from anything

CtrlT reads every word in your snip with Windows' built-in OCR. Offline, instant.

Search what you see

CtrlG sends the snip to Google Lens. Identify a font, a plant, a part, a place.

Snip inside a snip

Add snip drops a second capture on top. Move it, resize it, crop it, give it a border or a deep shadow.

Hide what's private

A real pixelate brush, not a see-through blur. Paint over it, or Shift-drag a box.

Frames that look designed

Original, continuous rounded corners, or a white or dark mat. Ready for slides and docs.

Screen recording

Hit record.
Get an MP4.

Drag an area, click a window or press F for the full screen. Koji captures at 60 fps on the GPU and hands you a small H.264 file, already on your clipboard and ready to paste into Discord, mail or Explorer.

Koji isn't code-signed yet, so Windows may show a SmartScreen prompt the first time. Choose More info → Run anyway.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. No trial, no account, no watermark, nothing uploaded. Your snips stay on your PC.

Does it replace Win+Shift+S?

By default, yes: Win+Shift+S and PrtSc open Koji instead of the Windows snipper. Both can be turned off in Settings.

Where do my files go?

Quick-saves land in Pictures\Koji, recordings in Videos\Koji. Both folders can be changed in Settings, and auto-save is optional.

How do I uninstall it?

Quit it from the tray and delete Koji.exe. Settings live in %APPDATA%\Koji if you want them gone too.

Why is it so small?

Koji is written in Rust and talks to Windows directly: GDI+ for drawing, DXGI for capture, Media Foundation for video, WinRT for OCR. No browser engine, no framework.
