Simple Yet Powerful Screen Recording Features
Record Your Screen
Capture your full screen, a window, or a selected region in crisp quality, so you can show work clearly for updates, training, demos, and walkthroughs.
Record Screen + Audio
Record your screen while capturing your voice in the same take, so viewers get both context and explanation together, without extra setup or syncing later.
Screen Annotation
Add simple on-screen annotations while recording to underline, circle, and mark key areas, so tutorials and walkthroughs feel clearer and easier to follow.
Mouse Highlight
Make the cursor stand out on screen so viewers don’t lose track of where you’re pointing, especially in detailed UI demos and step-by-step walkthroughs.
Edit Video
Edit recordings with simple controls so you can clean up timing, remove mistakes, and tighten delivery quickly, without exporting into another editing tool.
Add Zoom in
Add zoom-in effects to focus attention on small UI details like menus, toggles, or fields, so viewers can follow along clearly on any screen size easily.
