Credit where it's due: FireShot is the most capable paid screenshot tool out there, and it has been for a long time. It's the one competitor that genuinely does searchable PDFs and batch capture well. Here's an honest look at where the two tools overlap, where FireShot is still ahead, and where Fullsy goes further.

If your work is bulk capture — feeding it a list of URLs or every open tab and walking away with a folder of PDFs — FireShot is more mature than Fullsy today, full stop. Batch is genuinely its strength, and we're not there yet. It's a polished, deep tool from a team that has earned its users.
Where Fullsy pulls ahead is everything around the capture. The searchable PDF that costs extra in FireShot is free here, drawn straight from the page's own text. On top of that you get scroll-video export, the Records suite — design, SEO, forensic, and a sealed offline archive — and a history that re-verifies each capture's integrity when you reopen it. For a price close to FireShot Pro's alone, that's a lot more tool.
Fullsy can also run capture errands for your AI agent — off by default, every errand filed into a case you can download as one zip. How agent capture works →
