Could you build this?

Partial While the annotation UI and color picker can be vibe-coded, building a native macOS utility that correctly handles Retina scaling, offline OCR, system hotkeys, and window pinning requires native Swift/AppKit expertise.

What it would actually take: Built with Swift, AppKit/Cocoa, ScreenCaptureKit, and Apple's Vision framework for offline OCR. The hardest parts involve edge-case handling around multiple display Retina backing-scale conversions, non-notarized screen recording permissions, and flawless global event taps. Requires an experienced native macOS developer to ensure low-latency and system stability.
