Screen capture & recording for Windows

Take screenshots and record your screen. Easy.

A small button that stays on the edge of your screen. Click once to take a screenshot, click again to record a video. Everything stays on your computer — no account, no tracking.

Everything it does

05 groups

Capture

Capture an area, a window or the full screen, plus long scrolling pages. A live size readout shows exact pixel dimensions, even on high-resolution screens. The floating widget is never included in your screenshots or recordings.

Record

Record any display or a single window to MP4. Turn the microphone, computer sound and webcam on or off separately. Pause, resume or cancel at any time.

Annotate & OCR

Draw arrows and shapes, write text, crop and blur. Each mark is a separate layer, so you can change it weeks later. Numbered callouts renumber themselves. OCR copies the text out of any capture so you can search it.

Library

Every screenshot and recording is saved by date. Search by file name, tag or the text inside the image, and filter by type, app or date. Rename, tag, export or delete.

Make it yours

Choose a light or dark theme and an accent colour. Set the widget layout, capture defaults and where files are saved. Every shortcut can be changed, and you are warned if two shortcuts clash.

Who it's for

04 audiences

Four kinds of work, each with its own capture-and-record workflow.

Privacy by design

Your screen never leaves your machine.

Capture, record, edit, and search with the network off. Passwords and tokens are automatically detected and blurred at capture time — a strong best-effort safeguard, not a guarantee, so treat anything genuinely sensitive with the same care you always would.

For managed machines

Smart Rule for managed machines

Anyone being captured always sees a consent badge that cannot be closed. Admin mode is never hidden.

Auto-blur on still captures is enforced and can't be switched off by whoever administers the machine; video clips are the labelled exception.

Every capture is written to a tamper-evident, encrypted, append-only vault.

Rules trigger on the action you define — captured as a still with forced auto-blur, or a labelled un-blurred clip — with configurable retention and an audited export trail.
