Bezl

Beautiful screenshot borders made easy

Bezl lets you create beautiful screenshots in seconds. Pick any open window, and Bezl captures it — then adjust the padding and corner radius to get the perfect framed look. Pair it with a gradient wallpaper backdrop so your window truly shines, and export the result as a polished PNG or straight to your clipboard.

⭐ Features

• Click-to-pick capture — Select any open window using the system picker and Bezl does the rest
• Global hotkey — Press Ctrl+Shift+S while focusing any window to capture it instantly — no need to switch back to Bezl first
• Adjustable padding — Fine-tune the border space around your screenshot after capture
• Corner radius — Round the corners for a polished, modern look
• Gradient wallpapers — Choose from 24 built-in gradient presets or create your own, then set it as your desktop wallpaper so every capture has a beautiful backdrop
• Export options — Copy to clipboard or save as PNG
