Image to URL turns any image on your clipboard into a shareable link you can paste anywhere — into a chat, an email, a document, or an AI conversation.
Image to URL — shareable link from any image

​
Open it

Press ⌃ ⌥ U from any app.

​
How it works

1

Copy an image

Copy an image, or set the image source to a screen region instead (see Options below).
2

Press the shortcut

Press ⌃ ⌥ U. The image is uploaded to the image service.
3

Paste the link

The returned link is copied to your clipboard and shown in a toast. Paste it anywhere.

​
Options

Settings → Tools → Image to URL:
  • Image source: Get Image from Clipboard (default) or Get Image from Screenshot (draw a region on screen when you press the shortcut).

​
Dax Shots

Every image you hand to this tool is saved to ~/Pictures/Dax Shots/Image to URL, named the way macOS names screenshots. The link expires after 90 days, but your original is always there to find again.

​
Notes

Links expire automatically after 90 days. The image only leaves your Mac on the keypress. There’s no background clipboard watching.
