A Windows screen recorder built for daily work
Record full-screen or windowed workflows on Windows, then clean them up with zoom, cursor effects, on-device captions, and exports that are ready to send — all processed locally so footage never leaves the machine.

Focus transitions
Auto-zoom that follows the action
Generate zoom regions from click activity so the important detail stays framed without extra manual editing.

Device and browser framing
Wrap recordings in browser, laptop, tablet, or phone frames when the story needs more structure than a raw capture.

Brandable output

Annotations for complex workflows
Add text, arrows, and visual markers when a workflow needs explanation beyond cursor movement alone.
