Comparison
Looking for a GoFullPage alternative?
GoFullScreenshot is a free Chrome extension for full page screenshots. One click captures the entire page, a new tab opens with the full-resolution result, and the annotation editor is already there. Nothing is uploaded, because there is no server in the capture path at all.
Why people switch
Local-only processing
Capturing, stitching, editing and exporting all happen inside your browser. There is no backend, no upload step, no account and no analytics.
Editor included
Pen, highlighter, eraser, text, lines, arrows, rectangles, ellipses, crop, undo/redo and zoom, without opening a second app.
Smart capture for web apps
Chat, email and collaboration tools have several scroll areas. Smart capture detects the right one, and you can force main content or side panel yourself.
AI-friendly image parts
Very tall captures can be split into numbered parts of 3000, 4000 or 5000 px with 160 px overlap, so long pages upload cleanly to AI tools.
GoFullScreenshot compared to typical screenshot extensions
Feature sets change often, so check the current listing of any extension you compare. The column below describes patterns common to cloud-based screenshot tools, not one specific product.
| Capability | GoFullScreenshot | Typical cloud tool |
|---|---|---|
| Everything processed on your own deviceMany tools send captures to a server for storage or sharing links. | ||
| No account or sign-inNo email, no login, no cloud library. | ||
| Built-in annotation editorAnnotate right after capture instead of exporting to another app. | ||
| PNG, JPEG, WebP and PDF exportWith adjustable quality and timestamped filenames. | ||
| Overlapping parts for AI toolsNumbered parts with 160 px overlap so text is never cut mid-line. |
Good to know before you switch
- Chrome blocks every extension from capturing chrome:// pages, the Chrome Web Store and the built-in PDF viewer. GoFullScreenshot shows a clear message instead of trying to work around those protections.
- Pages that load content while scrolling should be scrolled once before capturing, so every section is rendered.
- Because there is no cloud library, your screenshots live wherever you save them. That is the trade-off of local-only processing.
