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.
