Beautiful screen
recordings.
Zero effort.
A free, open-source macOS app that transforms raw screen captures into polished videos with algorithm-driven smart zoom, click effects, and timeline editing.
Requires macOS 13.0 or later
Algorithm-Driven Smart Zoom
Analyzes mouse movements, click patterns, and UI element boundaries to auto-generate zoom keyframes. No manual work needed.
Professional Timeline
Multi-track editor with Transform, Ripple, Cursor & Keystroke tracks. Full easing curve support for cinematic motion.
Free & Open Source
Apache 2.0 licensed. No subscriptions, no telemetry, no vendor lock‑in. Built with pure Apple frameworks.
Smart Auto-Zoom
Algorithms detect mouse movement patterns, UI element boundaries, and scene transitions. Zoom keyframes are generated automatically — focusing in when you click, pulling out during navigation. Every keyframe is fully editable.
Activity Clustering · Session Analysis · Context-Aware ZoomMulti-Track Timeline
Four dedicated tracks — Transform, Ripple, Cursor, Keystroke — each with independent keyframes and easing curves. Add, move, or delete keyframes. Preview changes in real time before export.
Transform · Ripple · Cursor · Keystroke TracksClick Effects
Every mouse click triggers a configurable ripple animation. Color-coded by type — left clicks, right clicks, double-clicks — each distinguishable at a glance. Adjust color, intensity, and duration.
