Scanmarker
Scanmarker is a productivity app for macOS that works in conjunction with the Scanmarker pen hardware scanner. The app captures highlighted text from physical documents and printed materials using the pen, converting the scanned content into digital text that can be imported into notes, documents, or other applications. It is designed for researchers, students, professionals and anyone who needs to digitize handwritten or printed text without manually retyping it.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about whether Scanmarker has a native Apple Silicon build. The app is available for macOS but there is no clear public documentation about native support or recent updates from the developer. Since the Intel build currently runs under Rosetta 2, it will stop working entirely when Apple removes Rosetta from macOS 28 (September 2028) — just over two years away. Contact the Scanmarker developer directly (typically through their support page or topscan.com if the site is still active) to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned and when it will be released. If the developer is no longer maintaining the app, or if no native build is planned before September 2028, you should begin evaluating alternatives like Microsoft OneNote with the Windows Ink or cloud-based document scanning services that are platform-agnostic.
