Built by a creator, for creators

"I needed this for my own projects, so I built it right"

Real talk: I'm building Mail Collectly (email collection) and TabsVerse (bookmark manager). Both need screenshots for customer showcases and bookmark previews.

The problem: UrlBox costs $19/month minimum, ScreenshotOne starts at $17/month, and none organize screenshots by project. As a multi-project creator, managing screenshots was chaos.

The solution: Build the screenshot API I actually want to use. Site organization as a first-class feature, creator-friendly pricing starting at $0, and zero enterprise nonsense.

Why URLPixel Exists

Personal Need

Building for my own Mail Collectly + TabsVerse projects first. If it works for me, it'll work for you.

Real Problems

Site organization and fair pricing that actually matter to creators managing multiple projects.

Creator Community

Share with fellow makers who need the same thing. We succeed together.

What Makes URLPixel Different

🗂️ Site Organization (Industry First)

Only screenshot API offering project-based site organization. Manage screenshots by project, not in one giant pile.

• Separate Mail Collectly screenshots from TabsVerse screenshots
• Clear organization that makes sense for multi-project creators
• Built-in from day one, not a premium upsell

⚡ Sub-2s Performance

Sub-2 second screenshot generation with browser pooling vs industry standard 5-10 seconds.

• Optimized browser pooling for speed
• Multiple quality profiles (mobile, desktop, print, thumbnail)
• Bulk screenshot generation with progress tracking

💰 Fair Pricing Philosophy

Currently free. Future pricing: $5-15/month vs competitors' $19+/month for similar features.

The Full Story

I was building multiple apps and websites simultaneously when I hit the screenshot wall. Every service wanted $19+ per month for basic features, forcing me to choose between expensive plans or settling for standard-quality images.

I'm currently building four apps (URLPixel, Orate, Mail Collectly, and TabsVerse) plus four sites for my creative work. Each project needs screenshots, but existing APIs treat creators like we're either broke hobbyists or enterprise customers with unlimited budgets.

Why Open Source?

I don't like extractive products. It took me time to build this, but with a reasonable understanding of the tech and AI help, anyone can do this. So why not open-source it?

The managed service handles infrastructure, maintenance, and updates. The open-source version gives you complete control and privacy. Both approaches are valid—you choose what works best.
