The problem
Most online screen recorders have paywalls, add watermarks or keep your videos on their cloud.
How it works
- Records a tab, window or whole screen in the browser with getDisplayMedia.
- Native MP4 (H.264/AAC) with a WebM fallback.
- Resumable uploads to your own Drive with only the drive.file scope.
- Crash-safe chunking and an IndexedDB retry queue.
Where it landed
Free, open source and watermark-free, with no back end and no user database.
