Okay, I'm conflicted. I love CleanShot X. I think it's one of the greatest macOS apps of all time. You know that. I've been waiting for this. BUT I also have Screen Studio, which is pretty much exactly this, AND Screen Studio recently added caption generation, which works really well. So now CleanShot X is basically Screen Studio for me, except that one feature that really impressed me in the last few weeks.

I was paying $229 for Screen Studio. Then I found this repo and uninstalled it the same night. Recordly is a free, MIT licensed screen recorder and editor that ships every feature I was paying for auto-zoom animations, cursor smoothing, motion blur, native macOS capture, and a full timeline editor. → Apple-style zoom animations with automatic suggestions from cursor activity → Native ScreenCaptureKit recording on macOS 12.3+ → Cursor smoothing, motion blur, click bounce, macOS-style cursor assets → Smooth pan transitions between zoom regions → Timeline trim, speed ramps, annotations, manual zoom spans → Wallpapers, gradients, padding, rounded corners, blur, drop shadows → MP4 and GIF export at any aspect ratio → .recordly project files so you can reopen edits later macOS, Windows, Linux. Scene composition runs on PixiJS. Native Swift helpers handle macOS cursor telemetry. 8.3k stars. MIT License. 100% Opensource
