WebsiteScreenshot is a free online tool that captures website screenshots in PNG, JPEG, or PDF formats and records scrolling videos, requiring no registration.
What is WebsiteScreenshot?
WebsiteScreenshot is a free online service that takes a website URL as input and produces a screenshot image (PNG, JPEG, PDF) or a scrolling video as output. It runs entirely in the browser with no software installation, and processing happens on the server side. The tool is developed by an independent team and prioritizes user privacy by not storing any captured data.
Key Features
- Multiple output formats — Save screenshots as PNG (best for quality and transparency), JPEG (smaller file sizes), or PDF (document-style captures).
- Full page capture — Capture entire web pages up to 20,000 pixels long, not just the visible viewport, ideal for long articles or landing pages.
- Device simulation — Choose from 12 preset resolutions including desktop ratios (16:9, 16:10, 5:4) and mobile device sizes (Galaxy S10, iPhone 6/7/8/XR/X, etc.).
- Scrolling video recording — Record smooth scrolling walkthroughs suitable for demos, reviews, and shareable website previews.
- Smart automation — Automatic detection and acceptance of cookie/GDPR banners (multiple languages), and optional ad blocking for cleaner screenshots.
- Capture delay — Set a delay between 0 and 30 seconds (2s default) to allow dynamic content to load before capture.
- Privacy focused — No screenshots or website data are permanently stored; all processing is temporary and data is removed immediately after completion.
- Instant and free — No registration or watermark; screenshots are generated in seconds and ready to download directly.
