The Section Screenshot tool: paste a URL, get every section

The free tool that turns any website into clean, per-section screenshots

ToolsUpdated AUG 27, 20263 min

Building a case study, a moodboard or a showreel usually starts the same way: screenshotting websites. Doing it by hand is slow, full-page captures come out huge and unusable, and half the time a section grabs before the fonts load or the animations settle. Section Screenshot handles all of that, and it's free.

Paste a URL, get every section

Drop in any link and it captures each section of the page as its own clean image. It loads the fonts, resolves the lazy images and plays the scroll animations through to the end first, so nothing comes out half-rendered.

Paste a URL, pick a viewport, and get clean per-section images.

How it works, step by step

  1. 01Paste one URL, or a few. Each captures on its own, so one slow site never holds up the rest.
  2. 02Pick a capture width and, if you want, a crop ratio. The defaults are fine for most sites.
  3. 03Section Screenshot opens the page, loads the fonts, plays scroll animations through to their end, and waits for lazy images.
  4. 04It finds each section and captures it as its own image, grouped by website.
  5. 05Review the results, drop the sections you don't want, then download the rest as a zip.

One clean image per section, not one giant scroll

Most tools hand you one endless full-page screenshot. You can't drop it into a deck and you can't compare two of them side by side. Scroll the one below. That's a whole page in a single file.

One giant image you cannot really use.

You get one image per section instead, each shown whole, exactly as the tool outputs it:

Captured hero section
01 Hero
Captured showcase section
02 Showcase
Captured dashboard section
04 Dashboard
Captured testimonials section
06 Testimonials
Captured pricing section
08 Pricing
Captured call-to-action section
10 CTA
Ten sections from one URL, each shown uncropped. Slide-ready, easy to compare, animations finished and lazy images loaded.

What each option does

Detection mode
How sections get found. The default reads semantic markup: every <section>, the direct children of <main>, and anything marked role="region" or data-section. Switch to custom selectors for sites built out of plain divs, or use Both to combine them.
Custom selectors
Point it at exactly what you want with CSS selectors like .hero or #pricing, which is what you'll need on a site that doesn't use semantic tags.
Capture width
Any viewport width from 320 to 2560 pixels, not just the preset device sizes, so you can grab a mobile layout or a wide desktop view.
Crop and aspect ratio
Reframe to 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, or 4:5, applied to everything at once or section by section.
Group, remove, restore
Captures group by website. Remove a section you don't need and bring it back later without recapturing.
Download
Export the whole set as a zip when it looks right. Free, no signup, no watermark, with a fair limit of five captures a minute.

If you're still deciding what to build the video in, the roundup of tools for a design portfolio video ranks five of them.

Then turn them into a reel

01

Once you have clean per-section shots you're one step from a portfolio video. Drop them into Reelfolio, pick a template, and export.

02

That's most of why this tool exists. Every showreel starts with someone screenshotting a website badly at eleven at night.
