Scrawl: show an AI coding assistant your bug by talking and drawing on screen
If you're building an app with an AI coding agent (an assistant like Claude Code or Cursor that writes and edits code for you), describing a bug can be the hardest part. According to its maker, Scrawl lets you press a shortcut, talk, click and draw over your screen, then paste the result into your agent. It saves a frame when you draw, click, say "look" or "now", or when the screen changes. Your speech is transcribed on your own computer, and each sentence is paired with the frame it describes.
- For
- People vibe coding their first apps with an AI coding agent who struggle to explain what's broken in technical words.
- Cost
- No price is listed on the provider's page. The app is offered as a direct download.
- Access
- Mac with Apple silicon running macOS 26 or later (version 0.3.12). There is a Windows x64 preview that is unsigned, meaning Windows may warn you because the app isn't verified with a developer certificate. Linux is listed as coming soon. An iPhone can be mirrored to the Mac for recording.
Worth a try if you're stuck on an app and keep fumbling to describe the problem in words, especially on a newer Mac. It's an early version and there's no listed price, so Windows users and anyone on an older Mac should probably wait.
Your moveCheck that your computer meets the requirements, download Scrawl from the provider's site, then record one bug you're stuck on and paste it into the coding agent you already use.
