Captures, Pin, and profiles

DPR-accurate screenshots, baseline Pin/Compare, and capture profiles. Pro features.

Captures, Pin, Compare, and profiles are how you freeze what the mosaic looks like for QA and reviews. They are Pro-only. Free can still Sync and share. It just doesn't mint screenshots or baselines.

Capture

  1. Open the canvas with the tiles you care about arranged.
  2. Click Capture. Tessera screenshots each selected / visible tessera at the right DPR.
  3. Download the ZIP and drop into your review tool or ticket.

If you're on Free, Capture offers an upgrade. Same for Pin and Compare.

Pin and Compare

Pin
Stores the current visual state as a baseline. Pin when the mosaic is "correct" before a CSS or content change.
Compare
After you change the site (or URL), Capture again and Compare against the pin to spot regressions. Tessera also surfaces Compare as a product surface (see /compare).

Profiles

Capture profiles remember which device set and options to shoot. Save a "mobile PR" or "breakpoint sweep" profile so the next Capture is one click. Profiles require Pro; Free cannot store them.

Pro only

Honest limits: Free is for feeling Sync on two tiles, one Mosaic, and short-lived shares. Shipping screenshot packs and baselines needs Pro. Full matrix: Free vs Pro.
