Nab it. It's already on your clipboard

A menubar capture tool that drops a clean link onto your clipboard the instant you nab, and it previews inline in Discord and Slack. Use Nab hosting out of the box, or bring your own R2 / S3 bucket.

No click-through, no “open in browser.” The link unfurls into the image right where you paste it, Discord, Slack, a GitHub comment.
