Screenshot Machine review
A cloud screenshot service with device presets, selector controls, and monthly capture quotas.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Screenshot Machine is a hosted service for capturing website pages through a web generator or API. It suits developers and businesses that need repeatable, URL-based captures rather than a general desktop screenshot tool. Device settings cover desktop, phone, and tablet rendering, and full-page capture can preserve content beyond the initial viewport. The service also converts web pages to PDF, making it relevant when a workflow needs page snapshots or document output from a website.
Capture controls are a notable part of its scope. Users can set dimensions, zoom, and capture delay; hide page elements or click an element before capture; target the first DOM element matching a CSS selector; and specify a crop rectangle. Image exports include JPG, PNG, and GIF. These options support more targeted captures than a simple full-page image, while the web and API platforms point toward browser-based and programmatic workflows. Choose it when those capture controls and automated requests matter; it is less suited to people seeking a broad desktop capture application.
The free Starter plan includes 100 fresh screenshots monthly and full-length captures, with basic support. Basic costs €9 per month and includes 2,500 fresh screenshots, full-length captures, and priority support. Pro is €59 monthly for 20,000 fresh screenshots, and Enterprise is €99 monthly for 50,000; both include full-length captures and priority support. Each paid plan also lists an additional-screenshot rate, which decreases across the tiers. The plan structure makes quotas central to choosing a tier: Starter fits limited volume, while recurring or higher-volume API capture may call for a paid plan. Buyers who need general desktop capture should look elsewhere.
