Use case

Turn product screenshots into shopping cards.

Product screenshots are often shopping ideas, tools to compare, or things to revisit. SnapAction can classify product screenshots, recover links when possible, and keep the original screenshot connected to a useful card.

Short answer

SnapAction saves product screenshots by scanning selected iPhone screenshots, classifying product resources, and recovering product links when enough visible context is available. Saved cards can include product name, URL when found, tags, visible price metadata, screenshot references, and follow-up actions.

Why product screenshots need cards

Screenshots are a weak shopping list

A product image in Photos does not know the store, link, name, price, or why you saved it.

Links disappear behind apps

Social posts, ads, marketplace pages, and mobile store views often hide the destination you need later.

Comparison needs tags and context

Products are easier to revisit when they become searchable cards with notes, tags, and source links.

Product screenshot workflow

1

Scan the product screenshot

Use the app gallery or a system entrypoint to scan a screenshot from Photos.

2

Classify it as a product

SnapAction can distinguish products and shopping ideas from generic links, articles, places, todos, and invoices.

3

Recover the product page when possible

If the screenshot shows a product name, page title, store, or URL, Serper-backed search and verification can help find a canonical link.

4

Review the resource card

Keep the product title, link, tags, description, visible price when extracted, and screenshot reference together for later.
