Screen recordings that look
studio-made.

Recoly records your Mac in up to 4K, then turns the raw take into polished video — automatic zoom, smooth cursor, clean backgrounds, captions and device mockups. No timeline wrangling.

Free forever for the essentials. Upgrade to Pro for 4K, no watermark and more.

Anyone can hit record.
Recoly makes it look produced.

Recoly's editor with auto-zoom, backgrounds, canvas shapes and a timeline

From messy take to shareable in minutes

Record once and Recoly handles the polish — zoom, trims, captions and a clean export you can drop anywhere.

The recording is the easy part

The moment that matters is turning that raw capture into something people actually want to watch.

Product demo

Sales needs a crisp walkthrough by end of day — not a shaky, zoom-less screen grab.

Bug report

A quick GIF says more than three paragraphs. You need it in seconds, not a video editor.

Course lesson

Students tune out blurry footage. Every click should be readable and captioned.

Record, and the edit is basically done

Recoly watches the cursor, zooms where the action is and lays the take on a clean background. Trim the dead air in one click, and the file you export already looks edited.

Raw capture vs. a Recoly cut

The difference isn't the camera. It's the edit Recoly does for you.

Same screen, same moment — one is a plain grab, the other looks produced.

Before / after in one export

Straight screen grab

  • Tiny cursor, hard to follow
  • Dead air and long pauses
  • Cluttered desktop background
  • No captions
  • Huge, unwieldy file

The same take, in Recoly

  • Auto-zoom on every action
  • Silences removed
  • Clean, branded background
  • Captions burned in
Features

Everything to make it look pro — mostly automatic

Record once. Recoly frames, zooms and polishes the video for you, with a full editor when you want control. Free covers the essentials; Pro adds the studio extras.

Auto-zoom that follows your clicks

Free

Recoly zooms to the action as you click and glides between areas — and holds steady when you click around one spot. No keyframes.

Hide what's private

Free

Pixelate, blur or cover emails, API keys and names. Masks stay locked to the content through every zoom and crop.

Any shape, one click

Free

16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Reels and TikTok, 1:1 and 4:5 for posts — the layout adapts, nothing to rebuild.

Recoly vs. the usual options

QuickTime records but barely edits. Loom lives in the cloud. Recoly does both — natively, and offline.
