Smooth zoom and silky cursor animation Copy link to this feature
Tight Studio frames every click with a buttery zoom-in while easing and trail smoothing strip the jitter out of your cursor - even shaky takes look intentional. Zero keyframing.

Custom cursor icon Copy link to this feature
Swap in a branded cursor, or scale it up so viewers never lose track on a 4K screen.

Effortless recording, end to end

Multiple takes, polished intros and outros, and your script on-screen - so recording feels routine, not high-stakes.

Multi-clip recording Copy link to this feature
Record several takes back-to-back, then trim and arrange them in a single project. Forget the perfect take.

Mobile device recording Copy link to this feature
Capture your iPhone or iPad alongside your Mac screen - perfect for mobile-app demos and dual-screen walk-throughs.

Teleprompter while recording Copy link to this feature
Your script sits on top of the screen while you record. Look at the camera, not your notes.

Intro and outro clips Copy link to this feature
Import other photos or videos as intro and outro clips for your recording - branded title cards, product shots, or end-screen CTAs.

Voice and captions you can edit like text

Re-record by editing the script, not by talking again.

A library of natural voices for when you don't want to (or can't) talk to a mic.

Clone your own voice Copy link to this feature

Flexible layouts, backgrounds, on-video markup, and music turn raw captures into polished cuts.
