Use case
Mac users, when a webpage or app blocks text selection, need to extract the on-screen text and paste it into notes, documents, or translation tools to continue working.
The public material does not state existing alternatives; by common practice, users may use screenshot plus system OCR, retype manually, or open the page on another device.
The public material offers only one line, 'copy the text your Mac won't let you select', without saying who encounters this, in what situation, or what is lost if unsolved, so pain intensity cannot be judged.
xOcto's call
Problem identified, demand strength unclear
Trend: system-level text capture is moving from screenshot-then-OCR into a one-gesture action, meaning on-screen content is being treated as a processable data source. Entry: start with legal, finance or support staff who retype uncopyable text from other systems every day, and wire capture straight into the next step of a ticket or ledger instead of shipping just a copy button.
Reason to use it
Why users would choose it
Inference: if it reduces capture to a single action that lands in the clipboard, users would pick it when retyping uncopyable text, skipping screenshot, switching to OCR and copying again; but the public material does not describe the action, and no user feedback or usage data supports this.
