How I came up to the idea?
The idea to build TextSniper was born from my personal, trivial use-case. I was watching a YouTube video tutorial and on the video was a link I needed to paste into Terminal app. The link was quite long and the only option was to retype it. Then I thought, would not be great, if I just could draw a selection around this link on the video, a tool would snip this link and turn it to typed text copied to clipboard. No mistyping, save a lot of time and the job is done in seconds.

Every day we encounter data in the form of text that is uncopiable or non-selectable. Like in images, PDFs, slides, online meetings, or just anything else. TextSniper on the fly allows to OCR any text from screen.
