How is my content kept private?

Every upload is stored privately. Share links are signed and time-limited, so only people you send an authorized link to can open your files — strangers cannot guess or browse them.

How much does hosting cost?

Plans start at $5/month for 50 GB (Starter), $12/month for 250 GB (Pro), and $29/month for 1 TB (Studio). You can also buy one-time credit top-ups. Viewing shared links never costs extra.

Does it record my webcam and screen together?

Yes. You can record your webcam on its own or as a floating camera bubble baked directly into a full-screen screen recording, all from the menu bar.

Download on the Mac App Store Choose a hosting plan

Free download · Requires macOS 13+ · Hosting plans with Apple Pay, Google Pay & cards

Everything you need

Free hosting if you want it, transcription, WebP screenshots, and more — built for people who share their screen all day.

🆓

A free hosting option

Keep every file on your Mac for free with no account at all, or host share links on a server of your choice.

✍️

Transcription built in

Turn a recording into text right in the app, or use a hosted or bring-your-own provider when you want it done in the cloud.

🖼️

WebP screenshots

Screenshots are saved and served as WebP, so the files stay small and your links open fast.

▶️

MP4 that plays inline

Recordings are MP4 (H.264/AAC), so a shared video link plays in the browser instead of forcing a download.

🔒

Private, expiring, revocable

Links are signed and time-limited, there is no public bucket, and you can revoke any link at any time.

🖍️

Annotate your screenshots

Mark up a screenshot with arrows, boxes, highlights and text before you send it.

🗂️

Tags and a searchable library

Browse, preview, tag, and re-share every capture from one window. Search across everything you have made.

🎥

Screen + webcam bubble

Record your screen with a floating camera bubble baked right into the video as picture-in-picture.

⌨️

Global hotkeys

Capture or record from a hotkey or the menu bar, with your own defaults and keyboard shortcuts.

Every capture in one organized library

Browse, preview, tag and re-share everything you have captured, and search across all of it from one window.

Capture or record without leaving your work

Screenshot, record your screen, record your camera, or record both together — straight from the menu bar.

Free self-hosting or pay-as-you-go

Keep everything on your Mac for free, use a server of your choice, or pay only for what we host for you.

Turn a recording into text, built right in

Transcribe with the built-in engine, use hosted transcription with credits, or bring your own Deepgram or OpenAI key.

Annotate before you share

Arrows, boxes, highlights and text, right after every capture — then save and share in the same breath.

Your hotkeys, your rules

Remap the global capture and recording hotkeys to whatever your hands already expect.

Sensible defaults, fully yours to tune

Capture targets, image format, cursor, startup behaviour — set it once and forget it.

🔒

Your captures stay yours

Files are stored privately and served only through signed, expiring links you authorize. There’s no public bucket to browse and no guessable URLs. Revoke a link any time. Because hosting runs on zero-egress infrastructure, viewing a shared link never costs you extra — unlike per-seat tools that meter every view.
