A system for analyzing screenshots can include a computing device including a processor coupled to a memory and a display screen configured to display content. The system can include an application stored on the memory and executable by the processor. The application can include a screenshot receiver configured to access, from storage to which a screenshot of the content displayed on the display screen captured using a screenshot function of the computing device is stored, the screenshot including an image and a predetermined marker. The application can include a marker detector configured to detect the predetermined marker included in the screenshot. The application can include a link identifier configured to identify, using the predetermined marker, a link to a resource mapped to the image included in the screenshot, the resource accessible by the computing device via the link.
A computer-implemented method using at least one processor communicatively coupled to at least one storage device, the method comprising:
A system for analyzing image data comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

The present disclosure is generally directed to linking screenshots to other resources. In particular, the present disclosure describes techniques for analyzing images to identify a screenshot and provide a link to another resource or content associated with the screenshot.
Companies can use the Internet to advertise or promote their brands and products. Users of client devices can view content provided by companies using a web browser or other application. Some users may capture screenshots relating to content that interests them on their client devices.
Systems and methods of the present solution are directed to linking screenshots to other resources. Consumer products companies often produce content that is published via the Internet. For example, a company may have its own website including web pages dedicated to its products or to brands associated with the company. In some instances, companies may promote their brands and products through third party web pages, such as social media sites. For example, many companies have one or more accounts on websites such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter. Users can view content published by a company by visiting the company's web pages or third party web pages on which the company publishes content. In some cases, users also may view content published by a company using a dedicated application on a client device, such as an application associated with a social media website on which the company publishes content.
The foregoing and other objects, aspects, features, and advantages of the disclosure will become more apparent and better understood by referring to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1A is a block diagram depicting an embodiment of a network environment comprising a client device in communication with server device;
FIG. 1B is a block diagram depicting a cloud computing environment comprising client device in communication with cloud service providers;
For purposes of reading the description of the various embodiments below, the following descriptions of the sections of the specification and their respective contents may be helpful:
Section A describes a network environment and computing environment which may be useful for practicing embodiments described herein.
Section B describes embodiments of systems and methods for linking a screenshot to other content.
